How's it going?
Yeah, I'm wondering that too.
SDP consists of two people (!) and makes noise for at least five. The buddies Vincent and Dag have been in the music industry for ten years. After a spectacular concert year in 2013, they are releasing their second album “Bunte Rapublik Deutschpunk,” making the concert year 2014 even more exciting.
The style of SDP is a mix of rap, punk, (trash) electro-pop, schlager, and a thousand other styles. Vincent and Dag have taken everything they could find from the style kitchen, and that was a hell of a lot. The songs have so many style breaks, melodies, rap inserts, and completely over-the-top breaks that it can make you dizzy. On the contrary, each song is so catchy despite its musical and lyrical complexity that you can already find parts to sing along to on the first listen. The worst part is that some lines get stuck in your head so much that you can't shake them off for days.
The duo has a lot to say in their lyrics. It starts with the exaggerated “Hände Hoch” and the cheeky diss song “Lied für die Fans von anderen Bands” (there might be a few too many quotes aimed at Die Ärzte).
Then comes “Mittelfinger.” The song is a general reckoning about everything that annoys, and there is a hell of a lot. Yet the song comes across so extremely cheerful that even the worst day brings sunshine to the soul.
Of course, one can also find negatives on the album, for example, the lyrics of “Als ich Mädchen noch scheiße fand” could spark many debates about sexism. It is a chauvinistic song... maybe, but perhaps it’s also a critique of all men who cower as soon as they are with a woman. Somewhere between local heroes, schoolyard songs, and puberty pop. Nevertheless, the band manages here too, not to convey hate but always with a friendly, perhaps even naive undertone of positivity.
Note: Major melodies always work.
The following song “Candle Light Döner” reminds a bit of “A-N-N-A” by Freundeskreis. SDP can also conjure up pubescent romance, and anyone who isn’t touched by the song, as well as the sadly lovesick “Wegen Dir,” should consider getting some help.
There are also guests on this album, including Keule (“Hätte, hätte, Fahrradkette,” a typical Keule song), Eke Fresh (“Mittelfinger”), Weekend (“Tanz aus der Reihe!,” a cool song), and Bass Sultan Hengzt (“Hurra, Hurra, die Schule brennt,” a crazy song, very funny).
After 17 minutes and 62:38 minutes, “Bunte Rapublik Deutschpunk” comes to an end, and you feel bliss, a desire for adventure, and just a zest for life.
With this album, SDP has created a multifaceted work between lyrical high enjoyment and puberty texts (some say it’s BRAVO music). There’s an extreme amount of wordplay and a bunch of great rhymes. An album that is 100% fun.
This is awesome!
Oh, and “Wer Ficken will muss freundlich sein,” listen once and understand the world of genders. My goodness, this music is fun!
