Die Sterne

About Me

Latest Release: Räuber und Gedärm ..
Founded in 1992. Still having fun. The first move was that of a post punk based rockband towards a parliafuncadelic funk style. Like the meters - without the skills. When this kind of move became known as crossover and wideley exploited in the mid nineties the Die Sterne pulled out and killed especially the rap parts in their songs. That was of course also an effect of the rise of german hip hop. So whatever there was rising, die sterne didnt seem to want to be a part of it and as some people say therefore didnt fall. They are more like rock band now. Post Punkish again and on a track that might be left from Gang of Four. Most people in germany talk about their lyrics and about their relations to other german bands with a reliable steadyness that is sometimes hard to endure. And -they are still singing in german-hard to escape from either. Luxury problems. They could feel good to be loved anyway.
