It is characterized by its energetic and rebellious sound, often featuring distorted guitars, driving basslines, and powerful drumming. The lyrics often touch on social and political issues, as well as personal struggles and emotions. The genre has produced some of the most iconic and influential bands in German music history, with a loyal fanbase both in Germany and internationally.
