No Stars is the third album by the band Pankow and was released in 1986 on Amiga .

Music style and reception

No Stars almost consistently contains compositions by Jürgen Ehle that emphasize the guitar . In 1986 Teldec published the album in the Federal Republic of Germany .

The album opens with the title song Keine Stars and the introduction of the band:

"The band comes out, another night like that / guitars squeak, drums make noise.
The singer loves rock 'n' roll provocation / He wants to be different, all his life."

- Excerpt from the text Die Band

With Er wants to be different , Keine Stars contains a hit whose title was the motto of large parts of the young generation in the second half of the 1980s in the GDR and whose refrain was chanted loudly in the choir by singers and audience during live performances.

“He has more to say besides complaints /… /
Sometimes he wants to go somewhere anyway /. /
But he doesn't run off to another place / He doesn't run away from problems. /
He can't think of to run away / He wants to be completely different. / ... /
He wants to be different / He wants to be completely different. / He wants to be different / He wants to be completely different. "

- Excerpt from text He wants to be different

Doris' bass intro, played by Jäcki Reznicek on the fretless bass , is one of the most famous of GDR rock music .
