Ska punk band from Germany formed in 1993 and currently with 9 albums and 7 ep´s recorded. The Stage Bottles were formed in 1993. We started with a complete different line up compared to now - except Olaf. The band was born as an anti-fascist Skinhead band with roots in classic punk-rock and Oi! from England. But we always gave a fuck about where good music comes from. The Stage Bottles are a sub-cultural band. Being involved into sub-cultures like Punk, Hooligan or Oi! we make a stand against capitalist society and its ignorant and killing effects. Our aggression is the result of a critical attitude to what ordinary people do. We are not ordinary, and people who like Stage Bottles aren’t either, we hope. But our attitude is not a result of racist or nationalist propaganda. We don’t like everyone, but we also don’t hate everyone. It doesn’t matter where anyone comes from or what colour of skin the person’s got. We’ve got friends/comrades all over the world. But we know some people are acting in another way, so we’ve got to react. Our music and the lyrics are an reaction to this. We can’t cut off our music and lyrics from experiences we had. So we are anti-fascists and we support anti-fascists and sometimes we feel like revolutionaries. But never forget: antifascism and a revolutionary attitude has got to be fun aswell. The Stage Bottles act in a political way to prevent bad things and to support good things and to save and build freedom. The result may be a better world with much more fun and without arsholes. You can call it: Aggression for fun in a positive way. But as a small band like us with a little effect, of course. With your support the effect may become bigger!
