The Wohlstandskinder was a punk rock band from Cologne, Germany that was founded in 1995. They define their music as Provinzrock ("Province rock").

Contents

[edit] Name

The "The" in the bandname was added in 2000, according to the official statement on their website as an Adelsprädikat ("an ennobling descriptor") and as sign for Posertum and Möchtegernglamour ("Wannabe-glamour").

[edit] Style

The early songs of The Wohlstandskinder were socially critical, politically left and often shameless. On their way to success, which lead to a Major Label, their music got much more subtle, and almost completely lost its shameless style.

[edit] Members

The Wohlstandskinder are:

  • Honolulu Silver - Vocals, Guitar
  • Türk Travolta - Lead-Guitar
  • Raki Neidhardt - Bass
  • Don Ludger de la Cardeneo - Drums
  • Toni Maroni - Keyboard (since 2005)

[edit] Discography

The Wohlstandskinder published several singles and five studio albums. They have also been sampled several times.

They have recorded two music-videos, one was even shown on the German music-television station VIVA (but only very late in the evening).
