We are currently experiencing a rapid rise in anti-Semitism in almost all areas of society. This is indicated by current research findings as well as statistics from reporting and counseling centers such as RIAS and OFEK. Particularly noteworthy is the increase in anti-Semitic incidents in alternative and progressive milieus, which in their self-perception often consider themselves immune to such tendencies.

still attractive to Jews? Can punk be a reservoir for criticizing and combating anti-Semitism in keeping with the times?

The mix of German punk, crust and 90s SxE hardcore is angry, aggressive and usually played at full steam ahead. They deal with everyday life in Germany and its
sexism and racism, belief in conspiracy and delusions of annihilation, neglect of prosperity and esoteric mumbo jumbo into an angry anti-triumvirate. Amen 81 are anti-fascist, anti-capitalist and above all anti-German. Never cerebral and never uptight, but always with puffed out cheeks from the
A 2-minute hardcore song is enough for an accurate social analysis.

Kaput Krauts: The world hasn't seen this yet. This is the sensation that nobody cares about. A band like any other. Just too blunt for punk. And too narrow-minded for hardcore. 3 chords. And the Nobel Prize for music. The soundtrack for the scene
religious war. Style? Message? Attitude? Check, check and check again. Here come the scene police. With their finger on the trigger and a monopoly on hits. Little substance and lots of shouting. It's all just a boring joke.
