Band history[edit]
They spent nearly all of their time playing in clubs and youth centers all over Germany for years. After few years the band felt the need of change in music, so they decided to search for other instruments and characters joining the band. Through luck and suprising circumstances they found the brass section with Trumpet, Trombone and Saxophone. From this time on, the music of NO RESPECT changed from rough Punkrock to a kind of fast but melodical Ska Punk which is not easy to classify. One could say it‘s a mixture of styles, in the end NO RESPECT have their own way of doing their stuff. During the years many things changed, lifestyle, music...etc., but some of the important things didn´t, as for an example the friendship and left wing political ideas which have always been very important for the band. NO RESPECT always played the music they liked, no matter if it was succsessful or not, the lyrics of the band (nearly all of them are written by Chris) are dealing with the topics of our daily life, and every member of the band will say that they exactly express the way they think and feel about it. Main aspects are antifascism, the fight against state control, trying to resist all the lies and the oppression, others are love, work and life itself. To the band the message is as important as the music. Propably this is the difference between NO RESPECT and a pushed up, success programmed mainstream band. During the years a lot of recordings were published. Many gigs all over Europe followed. In 1998 they did a tour through the Basque country and in 1999 NO RESPECT visited Italy. Two CD´s followed: "Tunes of decline" and recently "Confidence".
