LYRICS

TOT & WAHNSINN LP
Mülleimer, 1983
Most of the songs on here are fast, thrash-speed punk rock, although Inferno slow it down for mid-tempo songs and often add a melodic element as well. Lyrically the band seems to have good intentions, but don't really break any new ground. "Ram It Up" is kind of dumb, but really just seems to be German teenagers trying to be "punk" and singing in English a second language. Overall it's nicely done, but suffers a little bit from not really standing out in any area. A lot of the songs don't really grab my attention (the notable exception being "Liebeslied", their most melodic track), and it gets predictable after awhile. The best songs would've made a great 7", but with 21 tracks it's hard for me to make it through the whole LP in one sitting.

I like these foreign records. Can't understand a damn thing they're saying so you sit back and listen to the music and in this case that is a sheer pleasure. Uh-oh, an English one, "Ram it up your bum, you are so dumb." Also one about some actor, Ronald something.
