"We are what, many years later, became known as the “baseball bat generation.” Young people who never dared to go out on the streets alone, who used bicycles instead of public transportation, and who knew which streets to avoid and when. We in Leipzig were still lucky compared to our friends in Chemnitz or Cottbus.
Twenty years later, the people who threw beer bottles at us are sitting in the parliament, and away from the big cities, a new right wing is taking control of the streets. TOTENMOND perfectly summed up our anger and contempt in their lyrics back in the 1980s. And unfortunately, these lyrics are as relevant today as they were then: “There they march again.” "
R.U.M.S is available as a limited edition tape and digitally at https://rumsdiezeit.bandcamp.com
