Toten Hosen - Tage Wie Diese [View all]

Some help from Wikipedia:

I want to thank DUer DFW for mentioning them. I'd never heard of them before, but I'm really impressed by what I've heard so far.

And yes, they're singing in German, their own language, unlike the Dutch group Golden Earring. Which I know has to have kept them from being as successful in the US. But I've listened to a lot of English lyrics over the years that weren't exactly clear, lol.

And this band sounds great. I love this video...
