WarPig Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 They were one of my Fav bands, but their lastest stuff doesnt appeal to me. Saw them in Brixton on the Reise Reise tour, awesome live atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky L Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I'd possibly suggest not doing a slavish video based copy of Mann Gegen Mann though!! Volkerball is a great DVD to add to your collection. You'll soon be stomping around your neighbourhood grumbling along to German lyrics on your ipod.

Lfalex v1.1 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 And check out their cover of "Stripped" by Depeche Mode. Blows the original away. Completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevbass Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I like most of their stuff that Ive heard. They're huge in Germany (unsuprising) and they pretty much pull massive crowds wherever they play (including here when they do) just be warned if you do decide to use Pyro make sure its all officialy over seen by a qualified fire safety type person because I remember reading a story about a band using pyro in some club a while back who managed to set fire to the whole place and burn it down.

I must say actually i never even realised what it was about! I feel slightly embarrased now that i've told everyone about this song and didn't realise! It's sad to think how many people just decided they hated this song because of it's subject because musically it's just a great song. I guess people are just scared that they might find it sexy.

saibuster Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I love them. I'd guess that in order to properly cover them, you'll have to get an additional technition that will trigger loops and synths. This also means that everyone will have to have in ear headphones running synchronised click. I cant see how you can REALLY cover them without the electronic touch.
