Thoughts on German music?
 

any favorite Songs?

Yea

In all seriousness though, tween Lune sure loved Rammstein back in the late 90's and early aughts

Fuck. That feeling when you realize rammsteins music is as far back as 20 years ago.

Die Prinzen sind am besten.

Kraftwerk. Not my fav. but electronic pioneers for sure.

metal isn't the only thing worth listening to from there u closed minded fellas

pretty much anything by Wolfsheim.. probably my favorite band from Germany. Too many hits to list.

Wolfsheim are pretty amazing ! Germany has a rich history of excellent music. They also have laws that enforce airplay of a German music (35% of all music played on the radio has to be from German artists), which has led to a bit of a renaissance of the german music scene over the past 10 years.

Here some of the stuff I like(d) to listen to

Cool. Very interesting about the 35% rule, you would think some other countries would realize it makes sense to give your own country a chance. At the very least, making sure more established industry cannot be able to buy up 90% of your "Shelf-space". Very common sense law.

It is unfortunate side effect of globalization that a "Western-washing" by a tidal wave of capital that knocks down everything it comes into contact with.

Not German, but it works:
