Rock-O-Rama Records (eBook, ePUB)

The Outrageous Story Of The Bizarrest Music Label Emerging From The Punk Movement

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Punk bands with provocative names such as Böhse Onkelz, Cotzbrocken, Oberste Heeresleitung and Stosstrupp caused a great deal of controversy in the media in the early days of what was probably Germany's most controversial record company: records were banned, censored or confiscated by the public prosecutor's office. A few years later, the former punk cult label had transformed itself into a global right-wing rock distributor. As a RAC rock mecca with international bands like Skrewdriver, Brutal Attack and Bound for Glory under contract, Rock-O-Rama had been in the focus of the Domestic Intelligence Agency since the mid-1980s and is still a fertile topic of discussion in youth subcultures, political scenes and the music underground. A conglomeration of obscure anecdotes and grotesque stories surround the constantly media-shy boss Herbert Egoldt: rumours of "cut-off ears" and the infiltration of the punk scene by the German National Party have made the rounds. In over 700 pages, this book finally sheds light on all the legends, myths and secrets and not only offers music nerds and scene insiders exclusive background information, but also makes an important contribution to the history of Europe's right-wing rock nucleus.
