"... They have built us a memorial and every idiot knows that the dirty love" sing the heroes there on their first album and not only that ... The music group (as Judith says, although the word "band" has become extinct since the early 70s) "Wir sind Helden" celebrating not only in their band name an ideal that is gratefully received by the audience: We are all heroes and can achieve anything if we want to. We need not be celebrated, we do not need monuments or the like. "A message that is understood, though not necessarily new, but actually totally lacking at the present time. Who would have thought, for example, that it even today still are bands have ideals? The fact is rewarded and makes the hero to shoot band 2003. Sold out concerts, top CD sales. At the Echo Awards '03 they were the big winners and in January '05 saw the said new CD on 150 000. Pre. So much for history. What happened? In short, the hero was on the one hand a monument that it was necessary to destroy. On the other hand, they were here subjected to "pressure to succeed." So what to do? It was einwas clear: we must not make the mistake now to make an album that sounds the same total as the first album, because that would be like a funny joke to be told twice and is then no longer so funny. The public would then very quickly lose interest in the hero But we must not make the mistake to make an album that shows a whole new side, because that would verknatzen the old fans. Again, the success of the band would subside quickly. Either way we can only lose, a circumstance to which not only the heroes desperate, but also hundreds of bands before. And now it's there, the second album. The response was clear: "The album is not as expected" (RTL) or "The album can not come close to the previous" Who would have thought! But what is to hear now? Actually, the logical consequence: - The heroes do not what people want to hear any of you, but go their way with new texts that move away from the puns and double meanings Holofernes'schen the German language, which is teeming on the first CD ( "Do not make the lights ---- took as time off" or "Dei time heals all miracles", "I'm out of you - not here:;: The Night Monster" My monster does not bite, it eats you out of my hand " "...). Only two small word games of this type to find (1 Just one word: "If you have to fall on the mouth already, why not then on my"; 2. Can I keep the "I give you my word, I want to always be silent "). - The heroes pursue largely not the way the ideal setting. You "so take the sledgehammer" and smashed the set they "monument". Many songs on the album is introverted love songs or songs that deal with the topic "love". For example, "An elephant for you," "May I keep the" "Disperse", "Just one word" and "I will exert all my life to love you the way I want to love you, if you're going" Only one song - "wear something on" - the self-nakt-making on TV because of lack of or despite existing talent deals with the subject, contributes significantly to the Ideal-discovery. - The heroes emerge not the pressure to succeed from the public, the media or irdend which profit horny record companies, but broach this, as in "angry enough", reflecting the often heard public request "You can calm even be a bit angry" and "pimp "which compares the humiliating behavior of some prostitutes with treating the songs of heroes. All in all I can to listening to the album knock the hero with a (non-alcoholic) beer on the shoulder and say, "You have done the right thing." Because I would have been very disappointed if the hero would not have done something new, because then it would not be the hero. On the other hand: If the heroes do not build on their tried and true way, it would also not the heroes. It's just darn ...
