BAP

BAP is the only German band I follow. Their often thoughtful and political lyrics got my attention in 1988 and after discovering they are a great live band too, they never let me go. All these years and all these gigs later they are still giving me food for though as well as a reason to rock. The Cologne dialect they sing always makes me feel at home and going to one of their shows, means being with friends.
