Böhse Onkelz – 3'52

Biografia
Böhse Onkelz started out in November 1980 in Hösbach as a punk rock band heavily inspired by bands such as Sex Pistols and the Ramones by Stephan “Der We” Weidner, Kevin Russell (he never uses his middle name Richard) and Peter “Pe” Schorowsky.
The musical style of the Onkelz has changed several times. Originally they played punk, starting with the Demoalbum. Throughout their career, their music was stylistically similar to heavy metal. Fans think they distinguish themselves by being excluded from society because of their rage, which directly expresses what they are thinking. Russell’s brutal vocals have also been a very distinctive part of the band’s style.
The name is an incorrect spelling of “bad uncles” (the correct form would be böse Onkel), which is German baby talk for bad grown-ups. According to Weidner on their DVD release “20 Jahre: Live in Frankfurt”, the name was created when the three founding members stole a sledge from some other teenagers, one of whom said “Hey, da sind die bösen Onkels schon wieder” (Hey, there come the bad uncles again).
The band kept its initial line-up until Matthias Röhr (nicknamed Gonzo after the Ted Nugent album of the same name) joined them in 1981. Musically he was by far the most experienced of the group; he had been playing guitar for six years, and had played in other bands such as Antikörper. Since Weidner played guitar, Matthias started out on bass, but they switched instruments before their first recordings for the punk sampler Soundtracks zum Untergang 2. Initially, the band was active mainly in the region of Frankfurt am Main.
