Band history
Bone Factory emerged from the Cologne-Porzer school band Die Klainen Strolche and was founded in 1994 by Claus Lüer (guitar, vocals), Achim Lauber (drums) and Gagi Ilic (bass). In 1996 Gagi left the band and Hasan Onay took over his place on bass. In 1996 the EP Elvis was released on Vitaminepillen Records. In 1998, when they were recording their second LP, Bone Factory broke up. The band members later played at Casanova's gay side (Claus, Hasan), Chefdenker (Claus), Bash (Claus), Tick 17 (Claus), Supernasst (Achim) and Karma Kola (Gagi).
Her best-known songs include Green Hair and Filmriss , of which Lüer's second band, Chefdenker, also plays the latter at their concerts due to regular inquiries from the audience. The socially critical themes of the songs deal with unemployment and homelessness, community service, trade union, but also with drinking or being broken.
Ten years after the dissolution, there were a total of four official reunion concerts in 2008: the appearance at the Ruhrpott Rodeo Festival in Hünxe in June marked the start, followed by appearances at the Back To Future Festival and the Force Attack . Another appearance took place at Punk im Pott . A very first unofficial concert of the Reunion tour took place on May 3rd as part of the Superfreunde CD release party in Langen .
In 2009, on March 14th, the supposedly absolutely last concert was given at the Freak'N'Art Festival in Karlsruhe. In the meantime, Bone Factory performed again on November 28th, 2009 at the "Streifuß-Festival" in Cologne, on December 28th, 2009 at Punk im Pott and for their supposedly definitely last concert on March 13th, 2010 in Augsburg at the "Battle of the South 2010" on. In July 2011 the band released a new EP under the title Green Hair 2.0 on Trillerfisch Records and played a few concerts again.
In their song "Anti-Alles-Aktion", the hip-hop formation Antilopen Gang refers to a line of text in the song Filmriss with "We didn't plan to ever come into the world and yet it somehow happened" . In the new recording of Anti-Alles-Aktion for the bonus album Atombombe auf Deutschland , Claus Lüer sings the refrain as a guest musician.
