I just did a googlesearch and it seems that Chumbawamba is brittish.. I thought "Tubthumping" was such an annoying and foolish song that they must come from germany.
I remember back in high school when I took german we listened to a band called The Wiseguys, they were pretty funny once you understood them. We also listened to Die Prinzen, they sounded 80's though
Guano Apes - "Lords of the Boards" rules the stereo when we're away snowboarding...
Scorpions - They were cool back then before "Winds of Change".. World Wide Live kicks 4r53 !
Ramm+tein - just rocks...
Die Krupps - As Above
Kraftwerk - They invented Techno.. Need I say more...
Helloween - But they suck now.. "Keeper" pt. 1 & 2 are friggin' GREAT....
Toten Hosen are just funny....
(So sue me. I grew up 60kms from the german border. I'm practically raised on german radio....)
When guano apes released Walking On A Thin Line the video for You Can't Touch Me was no.1 on the MTV2 request list in the UK. They pulled out of a UK tour after one date for some reason and non of the videos for following releases were sent over here.
