Or rather - He has risen again in a time when the new "wannabe punk bands" like the sprout mushrooms that Beatsteaks are a refreshing surprise. On "Smack Smash" the old, honest punk is given new life. For example, "I do not care as long as you sing" recalls heartbreaking to the good old Clash-hours. As seen on "Hello Joe" in the title, the boys are of course Clash Fan's - finally dedicated not simply as the Clash mastermind Joe Strummer song. Furthermore, simply noted that they not rely on complicated Arrangments, but on the good old values such as bass, guitar, drums and singer - what makes my opinion her recipe for success. Simple - classic - and not to exceed in their uniqueness - as good, PROPER Punk should stop! Vibrators, Clash, Undertones, Buzzcocks, Ramones - rejoice - you have found worthy successors representing your heritage in all honor! RESPECT !! One of the best live bands and albums that I have allowed myself the last couple of years - and the old I'll get me even. So take an example and buy this album, if you want your money to create new items right !! This disc will prepare you for a long joy ..!
