The old song of Sale

In 2000, the dilemma began around the Cologne band Brings on. With "Superjeilezick" landed the five guys around frontman Peter Brings, who had proved so far as detached from Fasteleer dialect rockers, totally surprising the Kölsch hit of the year and established thereafter, and Kölsch rock generally in the stage show of the Cologne Carnival. So it is not surprising that they in time for the new session with "Hay! Hay! Hay!" have a new album at the start.

Even when disappointing predecessor "Sulang mer still Lääve sin" is recorded permanently the change of style from Kölscher rock music towards a party mood and tape. Hay! Hay! Hay! is there still a plan. Hardly anything has remained of the band who had stood with albums like "5" or "Just" to the side of BAP and Wolfgang Niedecken. Social Critical rock songs like "handful ze eat" or "No Fröhling in lime", which Brings had (in which the foreign and) played in the heart of Cologne's rock fans, are completely absent. Almost every song is like trimmed to mood, the old charm has been replaced by the panting after success. The old song from the sale! It is true that the title song, a truly crisp Rocker, which invites you to toe-tapping, to convince otherwise could also come from the album of the spring a maximalst average carnival chapel. Was the affection the band Polka rhythms already known, so mix here even Sirtakinummern and Schunkel songs with, do not get off the but about the very most reasonable approaches ("Eifel", "Fright Night"). With "Football is our life" can no longer save a lot in terms of the overall impression of a well known song. In Wust this party songs is still hiding a pearl: The slightly ajar to Bob Dylan Track Loß you nix jefalle, a song about memories of old times, stands out particularly in terms of authenticity - very positive out.

Unfortunately an exception. "Hay! Hay! Hay!" is certainly the weakest Brings album ever and points to a final farewell to former class. The fan of old songs can only hope that the pursuit of filthy lucre is again soft the musical idealism. Lyrically and musically, it does not affect, however, as if this was justified. They say, hope dies last, but this works for them already is in the ICU.
