We've been around since the end of 2002, and with the same lineup: Karsten/Vox, BT/Guitar, Andi/Bass, Daichi Dog/Drums.
COOL! Why that name, it's quite provocative?
Quite simply, Christoph - I come from a time when PUNK was still a damn insult and a means to shock and offend people. That's why our name!!
Did you have problems regarding the name?
Yes, that was often the case in the past. It was sometimes impossible to get shows under such a name... many people, especially many concert promoters, got really upset when they heard our name and couldn't understand that a punk band wanted to perform under such a name. That's why we only played 7-9 shows in the first two years...
After a few technical problems, let's continue. Who writes the lyrics for you?
That's me.
And, how old are you on average?
OH, we are about 142 years old together, I believe. That would be an average of 35.75 years! In my years ;-))
^^ Which bands influence your music?
The Heartbreakers, Dead Boys, Iggy & the Stooges, The Germs, Sex Pistols, Ramones, Bowie, T-Rex.
Nice bands... Is there a new CD in the works??
Definitely, the songs are already written, and at the moment we are working our asses off to be able to finance a studio soon. The new LP/CD is expected to be released again on TKO Rec. and will carry the nice title "Old habits die hard"...
Where can I buy your records??
Well, normally at least the CD should be available at some mail orders or record stores (they can definitely order the CD without any problems). Or at concerts! You might also get the LP, which should actually be sold out. Oh, and at http://www.drunknroll.de you can get our new 7" as well as the live CD recorded in London... pretty explosive material, haha!!
Okay... Speaking of concerts, why did the gig on February 17th in Flensburg fall through??
Unfortunately, we had to cancel all 5 planned shows in February because our drummer Daichi Dog was not fit for duty. Some punk idiot hit him in the face with a bottle, and Daichi ended up pretty battered in the Aachen hospital. However, he has since recovered very well, so we were able to start live shows again two weeks ago. We hope to make up for Hamburg and Flensburg soon and stir up the far north!!
We hope so!!! Have you played any concerts up here in the north before?
Yes, we played a show in Hamburg at "Lobusch" on New Year's Eve 2003 - what a party... We arrived at the venue way too early and were systematically filled with grass and schnapps... We ended up on stage as the last band around 2:30 AM, and then the place went wild, I can tell you!!
Yes... It's a place in Hamburg Altona, right?
Exactly. It's right in the middle of an intersection and is pretty cool. A squat.
So if you are interested in playing in the north again, I would recommend "Die Pumpe" in Kiel, I was just there on Saturday with SS-KALIERT, a really great place.
Those are colleagues of ours from the Ruhr area. Is there a lot going on in Kiel?? And would Die Pumpe want to book us??
I think so, so punk is definitely still alive in Kiel... otherwise, there's still "Knust" in Hamburg and in Flensburg: "Roxy", "Kühlhaus"... and a cool club is "Der Speicher" in Husum.
I've heard of Speicher. Is that club in Rendsburg still around?? I was there in 1996 with SNAP-HER and SOCIAL UNREST...
Oh, do you mean the T-Stube?
YES!!
Yes, it's still there.

It's an absolute PC place, I know!! But a lot of laughter happened there...
Guddi....^^... what are your further plans for NAZI DOGS?
Possibly recording the new LP soon, staying healthy, and playing many live shows everywhere... giving intense & wild concerts... and continuing to lead a cool & crazy life.
GOOD... Is there one or more homepages that people should definitely check out to stay updated?
Yes, namely: www.myspace.com/nazidogs as well as www.thenazidogs.de
Cool, then I sincerely thank you for this nice interview!!!!
I thank you, Christoph! It was a pleasure!! GET PISSED - DESTROY!!!
