Boxhamsters - Wir Kinder aus Bullerbü (1988)

Boxhamsters are a punk rock band from Gießen, Germany, founded in 1987.
The band's name comes from the Monty Python play "Upperclass Twit of the Year" the German translation of which features a certain Mr. Boxhamster.

Their debut album "Wir Kinder aus Bullerbü" was recorded in June and October 1988 by Martin Brandt, Michael Muth and Dieter Keiner at "Tonstudio Kesselbach".

It was released in 1988 on the band´s own label "Bad Moon Records" and accompanied me since its appearance.

The cover shows Gert Fröbe playing a child murderer in the movie "Es geschah am hellichten Tag" from 1958,

With "Wir Kinder aus Bullerbü", the Boxhamsters have delivered a masterpiece of German punk rock. "At that time D-punk was somehow asleep and there was not much new or interesting. With their schrammel bumpy sound and brilliant personel lyrics, which are far from heroic or flat, they managed the leap to the forefront and most of the songs still belong in their live repertoire. No wonder why, songs like "In dieser Zeit", "Verwirrt", "WoStehtDieUhr" still sound fresh and not antiquated." (WhyDoThingsHaveToChange) And "Prost Neujahr jr." is one of my all time favourites, used for more than one great mixtape. So enjoy this great album with twelve punk tracks from Gießen's finest.
