Scorpions - Rock You Like a Hurricane

The first song I ever remember remembering was Scorpions' Wind of Change. I fell in love with it cause it had that je ne sais quoi that I later learned to identify as the trademark of a well written power balad. Therefore, the ever audio cassette I ever owned was, at my request, something of the Scorpions. And boy, was I in for a surprise when instead the gentle uplifting riffs, my tender, innocent ears got blasted by the likes of Virgin Killer. Cause, uhm... yeah... The Scorpions are a German rock band. Or well, used to be.

Can - I want more

Here is a beautiful example of Krautrock, forefather to so many other contemporary genres.

Rammstein - Keine Lust


A German week cannot start with anything else _but_ Rammstein. And being Monday, I´m not in the mood... for anything.

And least of all for work xP

Lacrimosa - Der Morgen Danach


Time is running out for all of us, and Lacrimosa apparently know that it is doing so even if you are in love, or especially when you are in love to be more accurate.


D.A.F - Der Mussolini

Atrocity - Cold Black Days

Mondays are indeed cold black days. Atrocity are a metal band from Ludwigsburg, so they gotta know, since spring has waited till June this year to grace that area... cold black days, indeed.
