Rawside is a hardcore punk band from Coburg .

history

On May 12, 1993 Ralle (guitar), Henne (vocals), Eddie (bass) and Krisch (drums) formed the band. In 1994, another guitarist joined the band (Hütter), who, however, left the band again in the same year and was replaced by Kai. Krisch, the drummer, left them, instead Beaker came to the group. Rawside disbanded in 1998 and re-founded in 2002 with a slightly different line-up. In 2006/07 the band had to take a long break because a band member was unable to play due to injuries. After extensive touring, guitarist Ehrl also left Rawside at the end of 2007 in order to concentrate on his band Killing today for a better tomorrow . A successor was quickly found in Martin. Shortly afterwards, a second guitarist was brought on board with Eppler. At the Punk im Pott in Oberhausen, the band presented itself for the first time again with a double guitar line-up.

style

The band's lyrics are mostly political and very left-wing. Musically, they are based on the classic, aggressive old-school hardcore punk , whereby the first albums were influenced by crustcore and early hardcore punk of the 80s, such as Minor Threat and German bands such as pre-war youth . The 2004 album Outlaw sounds more like old-school New York hardcore punk ( NYHC ).
