Youth clubs and autonomous centers remain persistent breeding grounds for a youth culture that can no longer truly call itself young. Weekend after weekend, disoriented teenagers gather here, with their lives ahead of them yet already unsure of what to do with their energy, their sex drive, and their zest for life. In a senseless search for answers, they find a socially accepted entry into alcoholism and a vent for their excessive need to communicate. Now and then, established punk bands find their way into these biotopes, on the long road to fleeting fame. When they pack up their tents to entertain more provincial spots, the supporting act remains. The supporting act is a boisterous bunch of wannabes, the undisputed kings of this hill. They will perform here for their clique next weekend, and the weekend after that, until they either achieve regional success or seek their fortune elsewhere after successfully graduating from school. And leave the field to their younger siblings.

I must honestly admit that I don't know if I'm right about SCHLUSS MIT LUSTIK, but that's how they sound. Do I need to write much more about the music? At least every second one of us has had a similar first band. Most fade away unheard. So if it comes to the release of a CD, buy it! You are laying the foundation for the next generation. This band does nothing that you haven't heard before; they are still experimenting, but they don't do it badly at all. Essentially, they orient themselves around the countless role models of German punk, focusing on drinking, childish (often unfunny) humor, and individualism vs. societal mainstream. Both acoustic passages and reggae, even a well-rapped part, find their way into the handful of songs. Additionally, this is a promotional song for a (now unfortunately discontinued) social project – top!
Some breaks are still not quite right, the lyrics sound like they were written over a weekend, yet you can feel the band's great enjoyment of the process, and that is what gives them their charm. They will never approach things as carefree again, so onto the stage and free beer for all!
