history

Max Resist was founded in 1989 under the name Haken Kreuz and renamed itself to Max Resist & The Hooligans in 1990 . The name addition was later omitted and replaced once by The Runes . The group uses the skull of the SS Totenkopf division as a ribbon symbol . The first two albums Renegade Youth (1995) and Second Skin (1997) were released via Resistance Records . Then the band switched to Panzerfaust Records and released Keep Fighting (2002) there. The last studio album Klymax was released in 2006 via Old Guard Records. A live album recorded in Germany followed in 2008 on the German right-wing rock label PC-Records . Both Renegade Youth and Live in Germany were indexed by the federal inspection agency for media harmful to minors.

During their career there were various line-up changes, so that the band is mainly associated with singer Sean Suggs, the only continuous member of the group. In 2012 the band was supposed to headline the NPD Festival Rock for Germany , but Suggs was refused entry.

meaning

Max Resist is considered to be one of the most active right-wing extremist bands in the United States. With Sean Suggs, the band is led by an identification figure of the right-wing extremist skinhead movement. The band is close to both the Blood and Honor network and the Hammerskins . The band's best- known song is Boot Party , which is about trampling down those who think differently with the heavy boots typical of skinheads. The band is also known in Germany, where they performed several times, for example on September 22, 2000 in Laave , Lüneburg in front of 500 people, just eight days after the German Interior Minister Otto Schily (SPD ). In addition to Max Resist, Razors Edge and the German bands Proissenheads and Spreegeschwader also played . The concert had to be evacuated by force. In 2002 the group played as headliners in front of 1,500 people at a secret concert in Dortmund. In Germany, the group's merchandise was distributed via the mail order company Hate Sounds after the Blood and Honor was banned.
