NAME TROUBLE: When Rammstein started making music together, they did so as a collective. When they released Herzeleid, they only put a headshot of each band member in the booklet - no names, or no reference to who played which instrument. They didn’t even give out their names when doing interviews. «Just write Rammstein», three of them told Zillo in 1995. «We don’t make a personality cult. Although our personal opinions are very different, we try to represent a unified opinion to the outside world.»

«We see ourselves as a solid unit», Paul Landers said to Rock Hard. «Actually, it wasn’t originally conceived that way, but if we sit in the rehearsal room for example, and only one band member is not present, nothing constructive happens, simple as that. We only function when all six people are there. So we’re not a band where everything is built around one leader, but more or less six doers, each of whom - depending on their stubbornness - contributes as much as possible.»

Because of that, they insisted on doing their Herzeleid press tour with all band members. «Right», Paul said, «However, it turns out that most of the time only three of us talk after all, which is why the others can stay at home in the future and not have to worry about that crap.»

Since then, Rammstein have been in the media countless times, though over the years, many journalists have had trouble with the names of the band members. Apparently it can also been difficult to distinguish between the different band members, and strangely enough, Christoph Schneider and Richard Kruspe seem to get mixed up quite frequently...

298: Wolf Parade // Apologies to the Queen Mary

Apologies to the Queen Mary Wolf Parade 2005, Sub Pop

Apologies to the Queen Mary is on the short list of ‘00s indie records that I’d consider masterpieces. The funny thing is that my list, as someone who was there (or there-adjacent), is pretty well fixed in time, whereas the consensus among Zoomer critics continues to morph in ways I’d never have figured. (Or maybe it’s not funny, really—just always how time and memory work.) In 2008, I would’ve bet my left pinkie that TV on the Radio (and especially Return to Cookie Mountain) would be the defining band of the era. Meanwhile, in 2024 the Killers are still riding the same five songs to a second greatest hits record and fifty times TVotR’s monthly residuals; the National have tween fans; and I hold a mug weird. Time clowns us all and Wolf Parade are a dad band now, owners of a few anthems from the era before genuinely weird indie bands could near the summits of the pop chart, economically compelled to continue touring small theatres together despite both Boeckner and Krug having been more invested in other, even less profitable projects for some time now.

Wolf Parade is one of those bands with two lead singers who sound indistinguishable before you know the group well, and instantly identifiable thereafter (like John and Paul of the Beatles, or Felix and Will of Chapo Trap House). They’re both yowlers who let their voices crack pubescently as shorthand for the frayed emotional spectrum they traffic in, given to barking and hooting to help drive their bric-a-brac compositions forward. Boeckner is a lanky post-punk looking fuckboy in roughly the Richard Hell mould, given to posing sweatily in torn undershirts and starting projects with a succession of raven-haired keyboard players he’s also dating. He loves motorik dance rock and Wire, but also has a substantial helping of Bruce Springsteen in his songwriting. Krug is a stocky, normal-looking guy who doesn’t really meet your eyes and self-deprecatingly called his solo project Moonface. He writes lyrics that sound like philosophy and love letters translated from an alien language, and prefers his music to both thwack and quaver.

Their similarities give Wolf Parade coherence, but much of their dynamism comes from how the two singers pass the controls back and forth. Backed by electronics tinkerer Hadji Bakara and Arlen Thompson, a drummer (crucially) capable of serving as a rhythm section unto himself, Krug and Boeckner find the perfect balance between Krug’s experimental art collective predilections and Boeckner’s slyly sexual rock ‘n’ roll heart. Krug leads with the empty warehouse strut of “You Are a Runner and I Am My Father’s Son”; Boeckner parries with the hooky acoustic rocker “Modern World”; Krug closes with the brittle seven-minute dirge “Dinner Bells”; Boeckner responds with the pinkly-hued Suicide-Springsteen collab “This Heart’s on Fire.”

Both Boeckner and Krug have made wilder, stranger music elsewhere, and there are plenty of other brilliant Wolf Parade songs to be found across their subsequent records. But Apologies remains the greatest blend of their particular talents they ever managed, a perfect example of two guys pushing each other to do their best work. With luck, a future generation will reconsider Wolf Parade and its many, many satellites (Sunset Rubdown, Operators, Handsome Furs, Frog Eyes, Swan Lake, Divine Fits…) as one of the most interesting micro-scenes the whole post-alternative rock era produced. And if not, I’ll still be here spinning the record a few times a year, believing in it all all over.

Kehrt der Faschismus wieder? Diese Frage begleitet den Aufstieg des Populismus. Sie steht für den Versuch, sich die unverstandene Gegenwart mit den Begriffen der Vergangenheit zu erklären. Die Erfolge von AfD, Lega, Trump und Co. haben jedoch weniger mit Mussolinis Marsch auf Rom oder der Machtübertragung auf Hitler zu tun. Sie gehen vor allem auf die sozialen und ökonomischen Veränderungen der letzten Jahrzehnte zurück. Der politische Stil des Populismus entspricht den arbeits- und lebensweltlichen Erfahrungen der meisten Menschen inzwischen stärker als der traditionelle Politikbetrieb. Auch deshalb werden die etablierten Parteien die gegenwärtigen Krisen nicht überleben, zumindest nicht in ihrer bisherigen Form. Neben dem Schwerpunkt über das »Zeitalter des Populismus« gibt es einen weiteren Schwerpunkt über das antisemitische Massaker vom 7. Oktober 2023 und seine Folgen – sowie Texte zu anderen aktuellen Fragen, zeitlosen Problemen, Prosa und Lyrik.

Mit Beiträgen von Klaus Bittermann, Funny van Dannen, Jan Gerber, Richard Goldberg, Jonathan Haidt, Dovid Hofshteyn, Uli Krug, Lejb Kwitko, Greg Lukianoff, Perez Markisch, Clemens Nachtmann, Léon Poliakov, Max Privorozki, Jens Rachut, Josefine Rieks, Samuel Salzborn, Clemens Schittko, Christoph Türcke und anderen.

»Man könnte die Herausgeber als heimatlose Linke bezeichnen. Halle könnte zur Chiffre werden für eine junge Generation in Ostdeutschland lebender Intellektueller.« (Johann Michael Müller, Cicero)
