Parents are responsible for their children (band)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The rock band parents are responsible for their children was founded in the early 1980s by the peat rock musicians Gunnar Kämmer and Raymond Voss .

Concept and songs

In terms of content, the band's songs don't have much to do with peat rock. These are very serious issues. They want to draw attention to the grievances of their time.

The piece "Kanonenbootheiland" is a clear statement against weapons and war . The fisherman's song emerged from a friendship with a Hamburg fisherman and draws attention to the insecure existence of fishermen in the early 1980s and the pollution of the North Sea . This does not happen without turning against the then Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt , whom you accuse of neglecting these things.

The song Love Up To Date questions the depth of love relationships, which are more and more short-term sexual interests at the expense of romantic love . The magic box means the ballot box ; the play accounts for false election promises. In Trabantenstadt , anonymity , loneliness , lone warfare and indifference , such as those that prevail in the big city , are discussed.
