spent half the day with an American co-driver. Doensn't seem to understand more than a couple of words in German, but apparently he had classes in high school and wants to refresh his memory by listening to music in German.
I thought oh okay, why not, it's boring to drive a truck around, let's do this. he liked one song and wants to learn every single word of it, correct pronunciation and all, so by now I've heard it about 15 times in play-stop-play-repeat mode.
best thing is we'll drive together again tonight, another 900km. what have I done.






I know you all are dying to participate in the Tocotronic German lesson, and since I've printed him a lyric sheet already, here you go, you are welcome.




So we pulled over Wir haben gehalten
in the most boring landscape on earth in der langweiligsten Landschaft der Welt
we talked among ourselves wir haben uns unterhalten
before too long it was clear und festgestellt
that we like it here dass es uns hier gefällt

The human exploitation Die Ausbeutung des Menschen
takes on a new quality erreicht eine neue Qualität
and everywhere you hear und wie man allerorten hört
the art of garden-design wird die Gartenbaukunst
is still cultivated here hier noch gerne gepflegt

I can hear you say Ich höre dich sagen
more softly than loud mehr leise als laut
"it is the youth themselves" "das haben sich die Jugendlichen
who have built it all up so well" selbst aufgebaut"

let there be rock

And all the things we've hated Und alles was wir hassen
since the very first day seit dem ersten Tag
will never leave us alone wird uns niemals verlassen
because actually we like it anyway weil man es eigentlich ja mag

I can hear you say Ich höre dich sagen
more softly than loud mehr leise als laut
"it is the youth themselves" "das haben sich die Jugendlichen
who have built it all up so well" selbst aufgebaut"

let there be rock

God damn it all Herrgott noch mal
just one more hour nur noch eine Stunde
just one more day nur noch einen Tag
let there be rock
God damn it all verflixt noch mal
let there be rock


update: he can sing it now.

Khun Narin's Electric Phin Band!!

This is the traveling Taiwanese psychedelic band whose videos made the rounds a while back. They would set up a mobile PA on wheels on a generator and just walk the Thai countryside playing psychedelic jams... Some indie label owner tracked them down and recorded them, and released this record (presumably today!)

With your knowledge regarding the subject of psychology, how do you interpret their lyrics? Are they really that locked up in themselves? Are they that lonely, that miserable?

[Elphenor]

Hey, Knulp
Can you translate the few German lines in this song?
I'm trying to figure out what the fuck Marky is on about here.....

[Elphenor]

I wouldn't really know how to begin to spell the lines and Google translate can't read minds.

He repeats the couple of lines I'm talking about a bunch at the end over and over so just skip towards the end....

[pavementtune]

sounds like Denglish - wrong Deutsch mixed with English.

"I leave real quick das Bremen Nacht"
...the Bremen night

"Ich mach schnell, pack das Bremen Nacht"
I quickly take (pack/grab) the Bremen night

"Ich raus, um mach das Bremen Nacht"
Me, out (I exit, I bolt) to make the Bremen night (to turn Bremen into night)

Bremen





by the way the song is called "Bremen Nacht Run Out" - Bremen Night, not Bremen Natch like the youtube clip is titled

7"

[Elphenor]

I have two versions of the song. Bremen Nacht and Bremen Nacht run out. (Actually there's a third version listed as Bremen Nacht Alt.)

Pretty sure Bremen Nacht is the album version and Bremen Nacht run out is a B side. On Run Out he just repeats those few lines over and over with the beat like a dance mix.

But yeah whoever uploaded that spelled it wrong.

[Elphenor]

That's funny the shit is spoken wrong. Sounds like something Marky would do.

Thanks!

'et al'

what is it that these groups have in common apart from jesus lizard / shlek

[Shallowed]

I realise they don't all fit into the same sub sub sub genres, but I was referring to the general sound/tone of these bands.
