Das Günther . Support: Dauerwille + Aftershow

Das Günther have been shaking up the alternative techno, party and festival scene with their improvisational spectacle for 7 years. With their post-punk/indie album "Strawberry Gelato", they are also stopping by at STRAZE this fall.
Günther's mother describes her child as follows: "Party! Party! Depressed! Depressed!"
For some, Günther needs therapy, for others Günther is therapy.
Like a shabby clown, Günther mucks around not only with the audience but also with themselves.
Günther doesn't write songs, but invents them on stage.
Günther is punk, clown and mom all at the same time.
The fans of Das Günther often describe the band from Hanover a little differently:
"You have to have seen Das Günther live, otherwise you won't understand"
"WTF was that?"
"Did they just change costumes seven times while they were singing?"
After minutes of singing along to text fragments such as Mit Staub Geschwängert, Im Darkroom Sind Wir Alle Geschwister or Allein Auf Ecstasy and dancing exhaustively, the one or other line of text still finds its personal meaning on the pillow or in the dreams of the crowd.

The musicians have always been aware that this concept of improvised dance music, with its irrepressible and explosive energy, is difficult to capture on record, and after an improv record (Sitzung I 2018) and a live album (Günthopoly 2021), Strawberry Gelato was released in March 2024, the first album to feature produced songs. Above the colorful mixture hovers the lyrical sword of Damocles of the climate catastrophe, which spreads its poisonous-tasting sprinkles on the ice cream cone of our generation.
You can listen on bandcamp.

Dauerwille has been hanging around Greifswald's dimly lit corners for some time now, using drum machines, synths and microphones to create a sound somewhere between Tekkno, Dark Wave, melancholy and a clenched fist.

Aftershow: Ramses delights us with fresh SWANA beats.

Start: 8 pm
Admission: 9-12-15€ (box office only)
