style
Texts
Their radical left-wing political stance was evident in the band's lyrics. In the texts, the desire for a social and economic revolution in Germany becomes clear, as well as the desire for active anti-fascism. Current conditions were often described and critically questioned, such as B. Poverty, injustice, deportation policy, authority, state repression, etc. Anti-state socialism was sought as a form of society.
music
The band's music can be classified as hardcore, especially on the first album Virus Macht , which was sung entirely in German. They kept the style with the second album. On the third album Zona Antifascista , however, elements from other subgenres of punk rock were mixed in.
