4 stars of a new "pants" fan

A fan of the Toten Hosen, I was not so far been safe. The song "Immortal" had nevertheless prompted me to buy me some time ago the accompanying CD. Since me this disc has completely convinced, I went to a best-of DTH to look closely.
Here are 20 pieces from the early days up in the 'nineties, where not only the musical development is to pursue, but also those of the individual band members. Initially still wild and impetuous (just the Opel-Gang) to meaningful back and thoughtful lyrics. That such things as "Bommerlunder" should not be missing it is clear to be a hit for eternity without large claim, the album has even much more treasures to offer. The text in "Sasha" is in my opinion somehow the default de pants again. Always aggressive and honest, yet absolutely intelligent and educated. I wish there were more such bands! In any case, they have gained a new fan trousers, not a "hardcore fan", but someone who has come to appreciate the band.
