Geräusch

Geräusch ("Noise") is a studio album by Die Ärzte. The album was sold on two CDs, which look like LPs. The package is designed, using upside-down techniques, to make it difficult to decide which of the covers is the front.

The track "Schneller leben" is titled "Oje, was singen Die denn da? AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHH" (Oh dear, what are they singing?) in CD-Text.
