DÖDELHAIE - Holzfällerlied 7'' 1991

The Dödelhaie were founded in Duisburg anno 1985 and the first line-up consisted of Timo (vocals), Manuel (guitars), Andy (bass), Hardy (drums) and after a demo tape in 1990 the four released their first album on their own. A band that likes touring and many gigs with well-known German Punk bands gave them greater attention, positive feedback and numerous fans of their music. Musically and lyrically well versed, the Haie shine with their unmistakable mix of combative, pathetic lyrics and the typical Dödelhaie humor, and they do it amazingly well and I enjoy their creative spirit. This 7Inch underlines exactly that, the Lumberjack Song is a cover of the famous Monty Python's classic, which surely everyone of you should know and makes me smile immediately, but also highly topical topics are part of their lyrics and numerous albums (seven to date) and compi contributions make clear, they never tire of them. The flip is a russian traditional folk number which everyone knows as well. - A cool record, perfect for beaming yourself into a stress-free weekend!
