Die Arzte
Die Arzte is a punk band from Berlin. It is regarded as one of the best-known German punk rock bands.The band consists of guitarist Farin Urlaub, drummer Bela B. and bass player Rodrigo Gonz?lez. All three write and sing.

The band was formed in 1982 by Jan Vetter, Dirk Felsenheimer and bassist Hans Runge.Bela and Farin had previously played together in the punk band Soilent Grun that broke up in 1982.

After that Bela and Farin played in clubs in their hometown, Berlin.They then decided to form another band.Their first release was a contribution to the sampler 20 schaumende Stimmungshits (translated as 20 foamy party hits).

It featured a strong alcohol theme and proved their seriousness as artists.In 1983 they won a rock contest in Berlin and used the prize money for the recording of their debut EP Uns geht's prima... (We're doing great...).

Following the response to their first EP, they were signed by Columbia Records where they released their first LP Debil in 1984 then their second Im Schatten der Arzte a year later.Bela and Farin parted ways with Sahnie after the second album they due to internal problems.

Mickey Meuser produced their third album.The third album was also the first time that Farin used distorted guitar sounds on most of the album, moving the band's sound towards rock.

Their songs GeschwisterliebeClaudia hat 'nen Sch?ferhund and Schlaflied were put on the German List of Media Harmful to Young People in 1987.This prohibited the band from performing the songs live or promoting the two albums.

Shops were also prohibited from openly displaying these records on their shelves.The result was a drop in record sales and financial problems for the band.

In response they released the best of album Ist das alles? (translated as Is that all?) with three new songs and the 10 compilation containing all indexed songs and some other songs with controversial themes and lyrics.

Then they came back in 2000 with the album, Runter mit den Spendierhosen, Unsichtbarer! Which contained two top 10 singles.

During their tour in 2001 they sold the limited edition album 5, 6, 7, 8 - Bullenstaat! consisting of short punk songs that were written and recorded with the previous years full length album published a year before, and with some cover songs that were published in 1995.Meanwhile, Bela did some acting and Farin recorded his first solo album Endlich Urlaub.
