Band Beatsteaks declares defiance towards critics: "To hell with the naysayers"
Beatsteaks Celebrate 30 Years with New Album and Tour
The iconic Berlin-based punk rock band, Beatsteaks, is set to release their ninth album, Please, on June 28. This release marks a significant milestone for the band as they celebrate their 30th anniversary.
The Beatsteaks have long been recognised as one of Germany’s most renowned rock bands, particularly in the Deutsch Punk and rock genres. Over the years, they have built a strong fan following and continue to be featured in major concert lineups and festivals, highlighting their ongoing relevance and impact in the music industry.
Please is anticipated to retain the band's signature intensity and roughness, while also demonstrating that they are not past their prime. The album features new tracks such as 'Against all Logic', 'The Lunatics', and 'Magic Feel', and even includes a cover of a Fun Boy Three classic.
On the second track of Please, Arnim Teutoburg-Weiß, the frontman of Beatsteaks, sings an outcry against detractors. This reflects the band's youthful energy and love for the streets, which may have diminished over time but remains unchanged.
The Beatsteaks were formed in 1995 and have been active for almost 30 years. Their longevity and consistent presence in the music scene underline their notable achievements as a top-tier Berlin rock band. As they embark on their anniversary tour in 2025, Beatsteaks continue to be celebrated for their dynamic live performances and significant influence within German punk and rock music.
Critics have given Please a rating of ★★★★, praising the band's ability to maintain their unique sound while evolving with the times. The Beatsteaks, with their energetic and lively atmosphere at concerts, are a testament to their continuing popularity and performance strength.
