Sergeant Slaughter (01): "Er brennt" [REMASTERED]

[TURN ON THE CAPTIONS TO SEE THE LYRICS!] An original song by Scott Sadowsky, translated from "He Burns". It's about a homeless man in Baltimore in 1988, sleeping outside a luxury mall. It comes from a January 4, 1990, rehearsal of the Kiel, West Germany, punk band Sergeant Slaughter, held in the basement machine shop of a youth center. Recorded on a primitive 1989 Sony Walkman (portable cassette player) using its built-in microphones. This version was remastered in July, 2025. The result is still far from perfect, but considering the quality of the source recording, it's a great improvement. Nils Tietgen (guitar and vocals), Scott Sadowsky (bass), Ted Fröhlich † (drums).
