Soldier was a German far-right rock - band from Berlin and until its dissolution in 2003, the nationwide most successful and best-known music group from the neo-Nazi milieu.

The lyrics were directed against minorities in Germany and also against central principles of the law of the Federal Republic of Germany. Due to the danger of criminal prosecution, the band decided early on to act out of illegality. The band also avoided public appearances for this reason and therefore only appeared in small clubs. The phonograms were produced abroad where there were no criminal regulations as in the Federal Republic, and then smuggled to Germany. There were contacts to the forbidden racist music network Blood and Honor and members of the violent neo-Nazi scene.

Investigations finally led to the arrest of the band members in 2001. In 2003 they were the first music group to be declared a criminal organization by the Berlin Court of Appeal and sentenced to fines and imprisonment.

" Landser " was a common name for German soldiers until the end of the Second World War, it is the short form of " Landsknecht ".

history

Prehistory (1982-1991)

In 1982 several of the future band members, including the future singer and lyricist Michael Regener , founded a neo-Nazi group called Vandalen in East Berlin (then GDR ) . She described herself as an Ario-Germanic fighting community and felt connected to Norse mythology . The number of members fluctuated and was at times up to 15 people. The vandals adopted certain characteristics of the rocker scene. For example, they maintained a corresponding external appearance, and candidate members (so-called prospects) first had to pass a one-year trial period. The group attended demonstrations and concerts together, and maintained contacts with like-minded people such as the NPD and the Blood and Honor network.

Foundation phase of the band (1991–1992)

The initially nameless band was founded in Berlin in 1991, according to Sören B., a founding member and later witness in the court case. It was initially apolitical and was not related to the vandals. The band played punk - and Oi! -Music and cover versions, both German and English were sung. The rehearsal room was made available by a social worker and was located in the Judith Auer Club in Berlin-Lichtenberg. After initial difficulties and a frequently changing line-up, a permanent formation was established in 1992, which regularly came to practice. The texts changed and contained more and more nationalistic content. At that time the band consisted of Sören B. (vocals), Andreas L. (bass guitar) and Horst S. (drums). In the club where the band members rehearsed, sympathizers and members of the right-wing extremist scene also frequented, among other things it was a meeting place for the vandals. One of its members, Regener, known by the nickname Lunikoff, became aware of the band and joined them as a guitarist. He also worked as a copywriter. From this point on, the lyrics were clearly nationalist. From then on, singing was only performed in German, with a few exceptions such as E.g. on the famous album "Guess who comes to dinner" with the southern band Bound for Glory. Visitors to the club who attended the test recordings made recordings on cassette recorders they had brought with them, which were distributed in Berlin and the surrounding area and which gave the band a certain degree of popularity in the right-wing extremist scene.

Renaming to Landser, first public appearance

The band was initially called the Final Solution (see Final Solution of the Jewish Question ), but changed its name six months later to Landser, based on a publication about soldiers in World War II. In September 1992, on the occasion of the birthday party of a future witness, the band gave their first and so far only public concert. This concert was advertised with some effort within the scene, for example circulars were sent and T-shirts with the name of the band were made and distributed. The concert took place in the Konradsberg youth club in Hennigsdorf. According to witness statements, there were around 100 visitors. The band members appeared masked to hide their identity, as they feared criminal prosecution due to the lyrics of the song. A video recording was made of the performance without the band's consent, which made the then drummer Horst S. angry. Most of the songs played at the concert corresponded to the demo cassette Das Reich comes again, which was released later . An article in the scene-related magazine Attack No. 1 reported on the performance afterwards. According to this article, the concert was attended by around 150 spectators, the performance was great and better than anything previously heard.

A short time later, according to the verdict in autumn or winter 1992, the band took part in a TV report on West German Broadcasting . The report was called the Beat Tunnel and was part of the three-part WDR youth documentary fear, power and violence . The band members appeared masked in front of the camera and played several songs, after which an interview was recorded with Regener, who performed under his pseudonym Lunikoff. In this interview, Regener criticized, among other things, the policy of denazification . The “allied Jewish re-educators” had succeeded through the media in driving the German people into a delusion of sin. Regener expressed his aversion to Jews and foreigners, advocated the introduction of labor camps for communists and the reintroduction of the death penalty . He accused German politicians of working on the death of the German people.

Demo cassette The Reich is Coming Again (1992)

After the band had achieved their first successes through the concert and the recordings distributed from it, they decided at the end of 1992 to record their first official sound carrier. Regener acted as a singer for the first time, because the previous singer Sören B., who had been arrested shortly before for a criminal offense, no longer appeared at the rehearsals and therefore left the band. The songs were recorded on cassette in a bar in Berlin-Weißensee using simple studio technology . The cassette was entitled The Empire Comes Again and contained 18 songs. Officially, it was only considered a demo recording . Later, a CD version was also published in a small edition with the changed title Berlin stays German , but when transferring a technical error, the songs were sometimes played too slowly and with a distorted pitch. According to some sources, the CD version is an official publication or an authorized publication by the band, while other sources refer to it as a bootleg . At that time, the sound carriers were still copied by unprofessional means and initially only distributed among the band's circle of friends. The music cassette was indexed in November 1993 , the CD edition in March 1997. In 1993, the band's rehearsal room was burned down by Berlin anti-fascists.

Republic of the Rascals (1995)

The previous bass player Andreas L. left the band, whereupon a replacement was sought. The choice fell on a member of the Vandals, the later co-defendant André M. However, at first he could not play an instrument and acquired the necessary skills with a borrowed bass guitar and the support of the band members. Since he could not read notes, M. made a note of the handles using numerical codes, which he wrote down on pieces of paper. Over time his skills improved, so initially he only accompanied the band on one string of the bass guitar, later on two, and from the year 2000 on all four strings. He had a long friendship with Regener. He drove him to the weekly rehearsals and picked up his mail, which Regener had sent to his mother so as not to arouse suspicion.

According to the court, the goals of the band changed during this time. Previously it was only the production of music for the right-wing extremist scene, but under the influence of Regener, who was meanwhile the head and sole writer of Landser, she wanted to use the song texts to inspire previously apolitical people, especially young people, for right-wing extremist ideas. Horst S., the band's drummer, on the other hand, tried to moderate the lyrics, believing that he could not answer for some of the criminally relevant content. Since the band's plan was dangerous with regard to the explosive nature of the lyrics, they decided not to appear in public anymore and to change the rehearsal locations frequently. In order not to arouse suspicion of randomly listening in, some of the texts during the rehearsals were no longer sung in German, but in a kind of makeshift English. This procedure was also used in the test recordings for the following studio albums. Despite these measures, the band members did not go underground themselves, but continued their bourgeois life.

The band's first studio album, Republik der Trolche , was recorded in late 1995. Horst S. won over a befriended music producer who had good connections to the Blood and Honor network . Recording, production and distribution were much more professional than with the demo recording Das Reich comes again . Due to the explosive nature of the texts, however, there was no German recording studio to record the content. The songs were therefore recorded in Helsingborg , Sweden , where such texts were legal and a member of the Blood and Honor network provided a recording studio. The band adopted this approach on their later albums as well. The recording studio was responsible for pressing the CDs. The CDs were then sent to Germany by mail or courier. The cover and booklet of the CD, however, were made in Germany. The band sent Jens O., a later witness, handwritten instructions for the design, which he implemented technically and had printed via a middleman near Hildesheim .

O. finally took over the distribution of the sound carriers within Germany, which according to his information comprised around 10,000-13,000 copies. The income generated should be divided between O. and the band members. However, the court was unable to quantify the sum of the sales proceeds with certainty. According to O., he passed around 24,000 DM on to Horst S., when it was assumed that in the end each band member would receive between 2,000 and 3,000 DM from the sales proceeds.

While trying to import 2000 of the pressed CDs from Sweden to Germany, Horst S. was arrested in March 1996 together with two other people after a tip from the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution . He was two weeks detention . S. then left both the band and the vandals. According to the court, his departure had to do not only with the arrest, but also with internal differences between him and Regener. For example, S. criticized individual passages of text written by Regener that seemed too explosive to him, and he was also annoyed that Regener designed textiles with the band's logo and sold them through Jens O. without him sharing the income. S. was finally sentenced in July 1998 to a fine of 100 daily rates for sedition.

In the course of the investigation, Regener, whom the public prosecutor had identified as the singer and head of the band, was also placed in custody. The proceedings were discontinued, however, because the public prosecutor's office could not prove that he was involved in importing and distributing the CD and was also of the opinion that the inclusion of texts abroad that were criminal in Germany would be exempt from punishment.

Deutsche Wut - Rock gegen Oben (1998)

With the departure of drummer Horst S. the activities of the band came to a standstill for a few months. At the end of 1996 he came into contact with the later co-defendant Christian W., a member of the Blood and Honor network, who had previously played as a guitarist and drummer in various bands of the right-wing extremist scene. He had learned that the band was looking for a new drummer. After rehearsing together in early 1997, W. was accepted into the band. With Regener, Christian W. and André M. the band finally found their final line-up, which lasted until the court ruling in December 2003.

Regener had already written numerous new texts during this phase. The newcomer W. found an attic where the band could do their rehearsals undisturbed. Regener used his good contacts in the USA to record the new album and chose a recording studio in Saint Paul, Minnesota , as the production location . In April 1998 the band members flew there together with a later witness and recorded their new album titled Deutsche Wut - Rock gegen Oben .

The production should be taken over by Jens O., who had already distributed the first album Republik der Trolche . However, the latter turned it down because he was already having difficulties with the law enforcement authorities because of his activities in the right-wing extremist scene, and transferred the production to his business partner B. The sound carriers were pressed in the USA and had a circulation of 10,000. O. and B. were responsible for distributing the sound carriers. After the legal difficulties in distributing the first album, they chose a new distribution channel. The finished CDs were sent in small quantities from the USA to the Netherlands, where they were picked up at their own risk by selected dealers who had to pay the purchase price in advance. This was to prevent the CDs from being confiscated by German customs before they were sold.

The cover and booklet should be printed again in Germany. However, an initial design template sent by e-mail was destroyed because there were fears that communications traffic would be monitored by the authorities. Then a new cover had to be designed. The subsequent printing was not without problems. The owner of the commissioned printer found the booklet suspicious, whereupon he called the public prosecutor's office. As a result, O. and B.'s places of residence were searched, but no criminal evidence was found. O. and B. then ended their collaboration with the band.

Although the new CD was also very popular, the sales proceeds were low. One reason for this was that by bypassing the official distribution, unauthorized copied tapes with the new songs were already in circulation before sales began.

Deutsche Wut - Rock gegen Oben was indexed in August 2004.

Ran to the Enemy (2000)

A few months later, the band resumed their rehearsals in a former discotheque in Potsdam. At the end of 1999 Christian W. rented a new rehearsal room in a building in Potsdam-Bornim from two later witnesses. The band rehearsed there regularly from the beginning of 2000. Just a few months later the rehearsals were so advanced that the new CD with the title Ran an den Feind could be recorded.

After O. and B. split up, the band needed a new producer. Christian W., the band's drummer, was with the later witness and owner of a record label Jan We. befriended, who agreed to the production of the new album after taking part in a rehearsal. It was agreed that We. assume all costs incurred in the production of the CD and pay each band member a fee of 10,000 DM before the CD is released. Since We. did not have enough financial resources to advance these funds, he borrowed money from a friend.

In the middle of 2000, We. a recording studio in Birmingham (England) and arranged flight tickets for the band members. Shortly before the scheduled recording date, when the band had already arrived in Birmingham, the location had to be moved to London. The master CD recorded there was taken back to Germany by the band and sent to We. to hand over. This in turn commissioned the later witness Mirko H., who had already produced several right-wing rock CDs, with the printing of the cover and booklet as well as the production of the CDs. For this purpose, he gave him the drafts and the master CD, which he had previously hidden in a hole in the ground on a construction site. Initially 5000 copies were made. The cover and booklet were printed in Poland. We commissioned the production of the recordings. a German company. He concealed the criminally explosive contents of the CD from her, as she was not involved in the right-wing extremist scene. The company passed the order on to a production company in Denmark. From there the finished sound carriers were returned to H., who removed the numbers stamped on the CDs in order to prevent them from being traced back later.

H. distributed the CDs to several middlemen and sold them through a chain of middlemen and distributors. H. ordered the production of 3,000 more copies, but the last 1,000 of them were no longer delivered when the criminally explosive content was discovered during an exit inspection at the press shop.

Ran an den Feind was added to the list of writings harmful to minors in March 2001.

Best of Landser (2001)

At the beginning of October 2000 Michael Regener met with the US citizen Anthony P., who was visiting Germany and owned a label in Saint Paul (Minnesota) that produced right-wing extremist music and distributed it worldwide via the Internet. They discussed how to sell the Landser CDs in the USA. However, P. had concerns about various titles with anti-Polish content on the CDs, since US American and Canadian citizens of Polish origin were among his customers in significant numbers. Both therefore agreed to produce a CD entitled Best of Landser with a compilation of songs suitable for the market in the USA from the CDs of the Landser group that had been released in the past and to distribute it worldwide via the Internet.

After consultation with Christian W. and André M., Regener made a selection of the titles, developed ideas for the design of the cover and textiles with advertising imprints and agreed with P. the fee to be paid by him. On the basis of the materials he had received, P. then produced the CD with a total of 21 songs.

To the annoyance of the band members, P. deviated from Regener's specifications when it came to designing the cover and making the textiles. The CD was completed at the end of March / beginning of April 2001 and distributed via the Internet worldwide, including in Germany, by post. From June 2001, Regener received several letters from P. by post with cash as a fee, a total of at least DM 2,100. This money was evenly distributed among the accused.

Best of Landser was indexed at the end of September 2005 .

Beginning of the investigation, arrest and trial

By the year 2000 at the latest, the Federal Criminal Police Office started an investigation on suspicion of the formation of a criminal association against the band and transferred the investigation to the Berlin State Criminal Police Office . In 2001 the investigations led to the arrest of the band members Michael Regener, André M. and Christian W, who had already had several criminal records. charges were brought against her in September 2002. In December 2003 the Berlin Superior Court convicted her of forming a criminal association in unity with the dissemination of propaganda by unconstitutional organizations , sedition , public incitement to criminal offenses , approval of criminal offenses , denigrating the state and its symbols, and insulting confessions of money - and prison terms. The band members had incited hatred and malice against foreigners and dissidents with their music, and they had posed a threat to public order. It was the first time that members of a musical group had been tried as a criminal organization.

According to witness statements and investigations by the court, Regener was the head of the band as a lyricist and singer and thus ringleader and main culprit. He acted out of deep National Socialist conviction and wanted to inspire young people in particular for right-wing extremist ideas. The court attested Regener historical knowledge, inventiveness, subtle irony, linguistic wit and an unusual choice of words with regard to the song texts he wrote.

Regener was sentenced to three years and four months' imprisonment, bassist André M. to one year and nine months and drummer Christian W. - including an earlier judgment - to one year and ten months. In addition, all band members were sentenced to medium four-digit fines. André M. and Christian W.'s prison sentences were suspended on probation. This was justified with intentions to improve, expressions of remorse and a favorable social prognosis, so both stated that they wanted to get out of the right-wing extremist scene.

Since André M. and Christian W. testified extensively against Regener in the process, the band members fell out. Regener, who refused any cooperation with the judiciary, later commented on this with the words: "Freedom bought at a high price - at the price of honor". His steadfastness earned him further respect within the scene.

According to the judgment Regener was first again at large, as it against the judgment revision lodged and his sentence initially was not legally binding. In March 2005, however, the Federal Court of Justice in Karlsruhe upheld the judgment against him. After his arrest, sympathizers demonstrated in front of the Tegel correctional facility for his release. Regener later founded a new band with people from the right-wing rock band Spreegeschwader called The Lunikoff Conspiracy .

The proceedings against the band also played a role in the criminal investigation into the right-wing extremist terrorist group National Socialist Underground (NSU), which was initiated after their self-exposure in November 2011. Many NSU supporters had been monitored during the investigation against Landser , including music distributors Jan Werner and Thomas Starke, both of whom were close to the NSU trio ( Uwe Mundlos , Uwe Böhnhardt , Beate Zschäpe ) in Chemnitz. From 2000 on, Starke was under the control of the Berlin State Criminal Police Office investigating Landser ; Other scene members, who had partly contributed to the production and distribution of the Landser CDs, were informants for various authorities or were monitored in their communication, including Mirko Heise and Ralf Marschner , who both reported to the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution . Werner's interrogation of the accused and a decision by the Court of Appeal on the Landser trial were found in the rubble of the last NSU apartment. The files on the tape at the Berlin Office for the Protection of the Constitution were disposed of in 2012, the spokeswoman for the Office for the Protection of the Constitution spoke of a regrettable oversight. In 2013, the Office for the Protection of the Constitution stated that they had reconstructed seven of the 34 shredded Landser documents.

meaning

The Berlin Court of Appeal described Landser as “the most important German cult band in the right-wing extremist spectrum”. The success of the band is based on the comparatively high textual and musical quality of the songs, which in this respect clearly surpass all other bands within the scene. The fact that, with one exception, the band did not appear in public and acted in secret, further solidified the band's cult status, which persists even after the arrest of its members. The profitable sale of merchandising articles such as T-shirts with the band's logo printed on this is also evidence of this. Some fans tattooed the band's logo, a stylized "L" pierced by a sword, on their bodies.

Further evidence of the recognition and the popularity of the band within the scene is that their songs by numerous German and foreign music groups gecovert were. For example, in 2003 and 2004, the record company WB-Versand released two compilations with the titles Landser - a Tribute and White Covers to Landser , which contain covered Landser pieces by a total of 24 music groups, including 14 foreign ones. These groups include, for example, Radikahl , Hauptkampflinie , Spreegeschwader , Melee , Stahlgewitter , Brigade M and Bound for Glory . The German neo-Nazi band SKD released a live CD in 2006 that included several Landser covers.

There were close contacts between the band and cadres of the organized violent neo-Nazi scene. The band members were involved in various neo-Nazi groups such as the Blood and Honor network , which made it possible to build an international network around the band. In its 13-year existence, the band has increasingly managed to gain a high level of awareness outside of the right-wing extremist spectrum.

Production and distribution of the phonograms

While the demo cassette Das Reich comes again was recorded and distributed by amateur means, the production of the studio albums took place in professional recording studios. The pressing of the CDs and the printing of the cover and booklet were also taken over by companies, some of which were deceived about the criminally explosive content. The production numbers of the studio albums were in the four to five-digit range.

In contrast to other right-wing rock bands, Landser did not try, according to the Berlin Court of Appeal, to prevent their recordings from being indexed by defusing song texts that had been checked by lawyers. Since the band members were aware of the explosive criminal law of their lyrics, the recording and production of the studio albums took place abroad, where, due to the different legal situation, no prosecution by state authorities was to be feared. The sound carriers were then smuggled from the production site to Germany in various ways and distributed across the country by couriers. The band mentions the use of such couriers in their song Indizintro , in which a recorded radio report is played that reports that Landser CDs have been confiscated.

Music and lyrics

The typical style is shaped by hard rock , but the band also plays acoustic music and ballads .

A frequent theme of the song lyrics is the rejection of ethnic groups who are perceived as inferior and those who think differently, such as blacks , Turks , Jews or communists . Among other things, these groups of people are subjected to derogatory statements, the use of force against them is called for, or their deportation is requested.

Some songs make specific references to public figures. For example, Ignatz Bubis , Heinz Galinski and Michel Friedman address former presidents and members of the Central Council of Jews , as well as the former President of the World Jewish Congress Edgar Bronfman and the Jewish journalist Simon Wiesenthal . It is also revenge for the shot neo Sunday Rainer announced.

Another frequently recurring topic is the rejection of the Federal Republic of Germany, which is called for combating. It is referred to as a police state and its politicians as traitors and servants of the people, as they are seen as collaborators with the allied occupying powers after the Second World War . According to their own statement, the band calls the injustice in the country by its name and sees itself exposed to arbitrary government and censorship in its work . People who think differently, such as nationalists, would be wrongly prosecuted politically and criminally in disregard of human rights , the existence of an independent judiciary is denied. As self-declared fighters of these conditions, Landser describe themselves as terrorists with electric guitars and the voice of the Aryan youth. Furthermore, the recapture of the territories lost to Poland after the First and Second World War and a return of the German Empire are called for.

The band is hostile to musicians who have turned against neo-Nazis in song lyrics or public statements. The bands Die Ärzte , Die Prinzen and Die Toten Hosen are accused of opportunism and hypocrisy , the distancing of the band Böhse Onkelz from right-wing extremism is seen as treason.

The songs played as ballads have, among other things, the idealization of the so-called Aryan race or the worship of idols typical of the scene such as Rudolf Hess or Ian Stuart .

The Germanic god Odin is revered, but Christianity is vehemently rejected. Jesus Christ , Christian clergy and the then Pope John Paul II are covered with derogatory statements. The Church 's commitment to peace and humanity today is viewed as hypocritical compared to the Inquisition and the burning of witches at that time .

Some titles do not contain text passages that are subject to criminal law, such as some ballads and drinking songs . These titles were republished on several unindexed compilations using changed band names such as Tanzorchester Immervoll or simply L.

Borrowings from music and film

As with Ran an den Feind, the pieces of music were partly based on National Socialist military songs ( bombs on Poland and later bombs on Engelland by Norbert Schultze ), whose right-wing extremist ideas and much of the content as well as the acoustics were retained.

Two songs use melodies from the Beatles : Right-wing radical is based on Yellow Submarine , while the song ZAst -Song is based on I Want to Hold Your Hand . The latter refers to the Beatles as a melody provider in a verse in the lyrics.

Some songs reproduce short film scenes in the original sound, such as Polacken Tango (from the GDR television series Archive of Death ), In the Mountains of Rwanda ( Die Kammer ) and Xenophobia ( Romper Stomper ) . In these scenes, members of the ethnic group sung about in the respective song are racially insulted. In Fridericus Rex , a fictional speech by Frederick the Great from the Nazi propaganda film The Great King and then the melody of the Prussian military march Der Hohenfriedberger is played.

Discography

Almost every recorded sound carrier has been indexed by the Federal Testing Office for Media Harmful to Young People (distribution to children and young people prohibited), which is why a large number of bootlegs are in circulation. Several publications that were indexed after April 1, 2003 are subject to the absolute distribution ban ( Part B of the list of media harmful to minors ) and may therefore not be distributed among adults.
