Biografie van Die Kassierer
<b>Die Kassierer</b> (The Cashiers), also ''Die mchtigen Kassierer'' (The Mighty Cashiers), are a satirical punk band from Bochum-Wattenscheid in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The group was founded in 1985 by Wolfgang Wendland (vocals), Nikolai Sonnenscheie (guitar), Volker Kampfgarten (drums, jazz guitar) and Mitch Maestro (bass guitar). <br />
<br />
The songs of ''Die Kassierer'' are often about drugs, sex, violence, and strange phenomena - such as aliens - and are extremely satirical.<br />
<br />
''Die Kassierer'' have been criticised for making what has been considered aggressive and socially as well as sexually disorienting music, but up to now only the album ''Habe Brille'' (Have glasses) has been officially indexed as harmful by the "Bundesprfstelle fr jugendgefrdende Medien" (Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons). This indexing was due to the original album's pornografic cover-photo. Shortly after the indexing the cover was changed, so that the LP was acceptable for sale in Germany again. Further attempts to label other LPs of ''Die Kassierer'' have been blocked by the courts because their songs were deemed satirical and socially critical enough to qualify as "Kunst" (art).<br />
<br />
Some of ''Die Kassierers''' songs are about the region the band members come from.<br />
<br />
In honor of the 20th anniversary of the band in 2005 nineteen artists, including the Donots, Die Lokalmatadore, Hennes Bender, Emscherkurve 77 and Mambo Kurt recorded songs of ''Die Kassierer'' for a tribute album, also called "Kunst". Bela B. and Rodrigo Gonzales from Die rzte played under the pseudonym ''2 fickende Hunde'' (2 Fucking Dogs). 4 years before Die kassierer had played a song for the Die rzte- tribute sampler "GtterDmmerung". They had transformed the song "Du willst mich kssen" (You want to kiss me) into "Du willst mich fisten" (You want to fist me).<br />
