One of Germany's best post-punk/indie-rock band announced a new album that will be released early next year. As an appetizer the released the first single Jugend ohne Gott und Faschismus. With her new single, Tocotronic take a political stand and underline the importance of a cosmopolitan attitude to life. "You spend the day with the skateboarders in the park. Later, you're tired and drifting off. In your dreams you see things. They grow everywhere. Diamonds, silver rings in supersonics, "says a line of songs. The reference to "Jugend ohne Gott" by Ödön von Horváth is also obvious. In the 1937 novel, a teacher is exposed to the racist remarks of his students, instead of defending himself, he behaves in accordance with the system. Tocotronic are still a political band and their sound based on guitar riffs are not really new and different but if you like a kind of music you don't need experiences.
