Die Ärzte - Anti-Zombie
die ärzte resident evil dawn of the dead punkrock
Here is a little basic info about the band first since most of you wont know them:
Die Ärzte (german for "the Doctors") were founded in the german capital of Berlin in 1982 (They turn 30 this year!) by guitarist Farin Urlaub, drummer Bela B. and bass guitarist Sahnie. However in 1985 Sahnie left the band after he turned out to be only craving money and fame and not caring much about the music. He was replaced in 1987 by Hagen Liebing. The band dissolved in 1988, fearing they could not take the pressure of success but reformed in 1993 after just missing the band too much. When they reformed Hagen was replaced as bass guitarist by Belas good friend Rodrigo Gonzalez who has been the bands ultimate bass guitarist and piano player ever since. Today its impossible to imagine DÄ (Die Ärzte) without him - he also wrote the song about fighting zombies which he dedicated to George Romeros "Dawn of the Dead", of which he is a big fan.
Ever since their reformation DÄ have become one of the most popular and successful german rockbands of all time in the last two decades. They have released about 20 albums and played over 4000 concerts (The new tour for 2012 has been already sold out for months). They are famous for their very entertaining live shows and for doing practically everything they want without knowing any boundaries - the crazier the better. They are famous for involving the audience a lot in their shows and for being extremely hilarious, funny and their juvenile humour which they celebrate in pure delight. They played an unplugged concert in a school, created an album thats just about hair and have songs that are about things like funny astronauts, going to the baker, being a sausage, a girl having sex with her dog or them telling each other how badly they wanna fuck each other. That however is always done with tons of tongue in cheek humour and lots of irony and sarcasm. But they are not just a funpunk band as people often call them. They also have very serious, deep, romantic, political, socially critical or powering songs as well.

And now here the lyrics for the "Resident Evil"-song by Die Ärzte (even though it was more written for Dawn of the Dead but what the hell xD)
ANTI-ZOMBIE
They eat everything, they feed on anything
And if you dont have a gun then my advice is: Run!
They are not alive, they are not dead
When I see them, then I´ll see red!
Aim for the head, no mercy
they have nothing in common with our dear dead ones
You can hear them eating and their hollow moaning
I am gonna spoil them with a load of lead
They walk mindlessly through the botany
Just relax, dont you panic!
It has to be done, you have to do it
And then they can rest in peace
Ohohooo - they come straight from hell
Ohooooo - cause they got too many of them down there
Ohooooo - They are not allowed to enter
Ohooooo - They are the living dead
Are you ready? Then kick their asses
Only then you´ll stay alive
Do you have enough ammo? Then my avice: Guns ablaze!
Either the 9mm or the assault rifle
Just empty those clips on them
Beware, they are coming to get you
To eat and eat and kill!
Ohohooo - they come straight from hell
Ohooooo - cause they got too many of them down there
Ohooooo - They are not allowed to enter
Ohooooo - They are the living dead
Ohohooo - they come straight from hell
Ohooooo - cause they got too many of them down there
Ohooooo - They are not allowed to enter
Ohooooo - They are the living dead
