It’s been a little while since I talked about some other bands or artists from ZAP Records, but I’ve known these guys for a few years now.
This is Praiser. They are a hardcore/punk band from Hamburg, Germany. They just released a greatest hits album called “20 Again” on ZAP’s Bandcamp page. These guys make some fun music. I like how that can make legitimate punk tunes that are socially conscious, have meaning, and they subvert so many cliches associated with Christian rock despite having that world view. I can’t think of too many other bands of that ilk destroying the Prosperity Gospel, calling out hypocrisy in religious sociopolitical circles, and even criticizing Christians who hold racist, sexist, or homophobic views. Good on them for being brave like that.
You can get this 20 song album for only $8 on Bandcamp. That money goes to making quality DIY independent music instead of some faceless musical conglomerate.

You are right it is rare to find popular songs with meaning. A lot just repeat the same sexual innuendo over and over.

Thanks. Finding music that means something especially music that isn’t mainstream is rare. Praiser is certainly a good band for those that like some punk rock.
