TANKARD

The first re-release of the seventh full-length studio album by legendary German Thrash Metal band, and, for the first time on vinyl, the debut full-length studio album by Tankard’s Punk/Metal side project, Tankwart.
"The Tankard" (1995) was the final album released on Noise by Tankard. Where Tankard touched some serious grounds with "Two-Faced", the follow-up album, "The Tankard" strives towards notably more familiar and lightsome directions. In fact, this release may be one of Tankard’s lightest productions – by all means, heavy this is not. With a couple of exceptions, the music has a particularly happy sound despite some serious lyrics still occasionally appearing, and it seems as if the band had slowed down a bit for this record. As a whole, it’s pretty harmless stuff, not exactly a collection of classic material, although many tracks here are perhaps more memorable than on an average Tankard album. Some good, uplifting hollers like "Minds On The Moon" and "Fuck Christmas" sound particularly relaxed and play in an enjoyable manner. Perpetuating the more serious side shown on its predecessor "Two-Faced", its sound was a melting pot of their signature thrash with elements of speed, power, hardcore, and a dash of melody entwined with some of their catchiest choruses to date.  So, it is somewhat inconsistent here and there, but some variation at times is only a good thing for this band.
The same year, Tankard redressed the humorous balance with their Tankwart side project of German language covers done in a Punk/Metal style, much to their fans' amusement.
"Aufgetankt" (1994) is the debut album by Tankwart, the side project of Tankard. The project covered a number of German hits from the notorious ‘Neue Deutsche Welle’ era of Pop music from the early 80s. It includes "Liebesspieler" of Die Toten Hosen, "Elke" of Die Artze, "Sternenhimmel" of Hubertkah, "Hurra, Hurra Die Schule Bennt" of Extrabeit and "Skandal Im Sperrbezirk" of the Spider Murphy Gang.  Tankwart means gas station attendants.
Limited Edition Double Orange/Blue Splatter Vinyl.
