A bit of OT and a bit of music

[ZiegDivine]

Hey guys, as some of you know I'm leaving soon to go to a German immersion program in Vermont for 7 weeks. That means I can't listen to any english music, in fact german music only. So if anybody has any good german bands, please for the love of God toss them my way, or I might go crazy

Oh, and grats to the new members

I don't know how long till you leave and what type of music you listen to but http://www.shouted.fm/index.php? is a German web casting station. On the right are links to different genres. Some of them still play a bit of English music.

Isn't David Hasselhoff popular over there?

Probably, LOL, is that a dig on Dirk? GO MAVS!!

For those that don't know, this program for Zeig is such that English isn't allowed to be spoken for the duration of the 7 week period! I guess they are just that intensive about their German Program!!

Did I represent correctly Ziegs??

Zieg...your mad...but iirc Ramstein isn't too bad if your into heavier rock, though admittedly I laugh whenever I hear them :p

Probably, LOL, is that a dig on Dirk? GO MAVS!!

I've been rooting for the Mavs from the start...but it looks like the heat might win this series

Zimmy's right I don't know what I was thinking. I don't know how much computer access I'll have, so any mp3 places would be sweet, but in the meantime thanks anyway Happy.

Rammstein's good, listen to that.

[SoliS]

yeah, rammstein... if you're into disturbing, violent imagery and all that.

i like the music, but im glad i cant understand it

I don't know any german, really, but seeing as that's related to swedish, I can sort of understand some of Rammstein's songs.. in the broadest of terms, if nothing else. I'd recommend listening to them, actually, if not for the music itself but more for the fact that most of their songs are more or less spoken rather than sung, so you'll have no trouble hearing what they're saying. This is according to a friend of mine (who took german in high school and) who said it was useful to listen to them.
