Band-Biography:
Ruhrpott-area, the wild-west of Germany in 2003… The Punk scene was big, but hardly any good local bands where around, so as a consequence & a mixture of boredom & frustration about that situation SS-KALIERT raised up.
After some rehearsals the first songs where written & the band played a couple of local shows. Not long time later Wölfi, the singer of the legendary band “Die Kassierer†heard about the young band & decided to support them by pressing their debut – 7†titled “STAND UP & FIGHTâ€. The first 500 copies sold out in under three months & it had to be repressed. From this time on the band got bigger & found themselves on stages all over Europe.
In 2005 the Boston based Label FNS RECORDS contacted the band about a 4 – track 7†which was released by FNS RECORDS in January 2006. While that was in process the worlds biggest street-punk label PUNKCORE RECORDS from NYC caught attention of the band. Teamed up with PUNK CORE, SS-KALIERT released their CD “DSKlation†in June. The European Labels RAZORBLADE MUSIC & VIENEESE BLOOD repressed “DSKlation†w/ 4 live bonus tracks as a vinyl picture LP in September 06.
The fast & aggressive but also melodic Punkrock that hits your ears gives with a guarantee some well deserving people a hard kick in the ass. Without needing to go into minute details SS-Kaliert..s hard hitting lyrics raise a large middle finger against everyone and everything that troubles them. Angry vocals coupled with these hard hitting lyrics & the non compromising music gives the band a powerful outburst of anger.
Up until now, SS-KALIERT can look back on countless shows played on European soil, one 6-week long full-US Tour in summer with the Lower Class Brats, followed by a 3-week European Tour with labelmates Action in October 06.
SS-KALIERT is not a racist, fascist, nationalist, patriotic or nazi-band, neither is S(SKA)LIERT a SKA band, or preach any kind of politics in their songs. SS-KALIERT is 120% fast & furious PUNKROCK, with no compromise in their lyrics – NOT MORE… NOT LESS!!!
