LP / Rave Up Records / 2013
Formed in 1980, in order to show them all! The Schaeffer brothers Josef
(bass ) and Manfred (drums) brought Herbert "Lörkas" Langer (guitar) on
board, who had recently quit the Punk combo Pöbel. With singer Hannes
the first line-up was complete. After the HEINZ NITTEL assassination
(city councilor of the social democratic party in Austria who was
murdered by palestine group ABU NIDAL on the first of may on his way to
town hall) the band name was an obvious choice - DEAD NITTELS (following
our musical heroes the DEAD KENNEDYS). The space in the Wiener
Gassergasse (referred to as GAGA) offered by the autonomous youth centre
was used as a rehearsal room. GAGA soon would become the nucleus of [close] viennes punk. A lot of legendary DEAD NITTELS concerts took place in
that time. Their first concert however was a gig as a supporting act for
the female punk band A-Gen53. after several reshuffles considering the
position of the singer, Christian Koczera, nicknamed Hulk, took over.
With him a second guitarist in the person of Michael Neumann, joined the
band. In this line-up the DEAD NITTELS recorded the so- called green
Kassette AntiNewWaveLiga. CRUDE AND STRONG EURO PUNK!!!
