Eisbrechers 'Amok' (English Lyrics)

[@msxxnasaxx]

Personally for me its because the way alot of german bands have a way of putting things together. The beat is so deep and alive. The instrumentals are synced together so perfectly. THE GENRE IS JUST SO PERFECT! Most American music just cant compare !

[@LoreKeeper009]

I enjoy German for both music and language because to me it is masculine and aggressive but also melodic and heartfelt. Bands like Eisbrecher and Unheilig just speak to me more than the shallow and whiny refuse most readily available in America, tho I have not a drop of German blood in me.

the lyrics seem like what 8 year old are thinking at every playground ever

[@valdyrr]

Thanks for the translations & wanted to tell that this song has helped me on so many occasions....!

[@justanaverageferret]

Love these guys...gave me so many inspirations for song lyrics for my lunatic character in my stories on Deviantart

[@CaptainNobody]

This song is amazing. I'm addicted to it.

[@tanajoart]

oh es freut mich, dass so viele Leute interessiert an unserer Sprache sind :D Naja sie ist auf jeden Fall nicht einfach zu erlernen OuO Viel glück

[@Panzerwurfer]

Personally, I love most music in foreign languages. I think it's that not knowing what they're saying lets your brain concentrate more on the music. Also, each language definitely has a preferred sound, and with German it is absolutely industrial music such as this. The language is suited to being used so aggressively, as heard in this song.

These videos literally taught me German when I was a teen thanks

[@petraloewer8257]

❤❤❤❤thx❤❤❤❤Eisbrecher❤❤❤❤❤

[@Serraphyst1]

I, for one, will listen to good music in any language. I think I am not alone in that.

[@X9SamFisher]

good to have you back

[@darrennelson5310]

What I love about German music is it isn't just boy-pines-after-girl crap but has interesting ideas and charismatic strength

[@devinmacgregor9406]

German is the largest European ethnic group in the US then Irish. People assume it is English because most Euro-Americans speak English. We didn't assimilate so much before both World Wars. We took down our German shop signs and put up English and we started to speak English primarily to avoid backlash.

[@der_greis_ist_heissl2816]

Well even english is an very old germanic slang ^^

[@Bens963]

Good song but wir laufen amok doesn't translate to we're running amok, it literally means to go on a shooting rampage or another event involving wielding weapons. The translation is known as a "false friend", to run amok in English means for something to get out of control, weapons are rarely involved

[@greghansen4331]

+Ben Stevenson The translation is correct. It's just one of those words with a technical meaning that people have found informal uses for. www.merriam-webster.com/medical/amok

[@josh-oo]

I like this. It kinda seems like an anti-war song, from my point of view. Specifically what it must be like to be a child soldier. Either that, or it's a song about a school shooting. Either one is pretty cool.

[@mikopaws1]

Doesn't the line with "flamethrower to the face" make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?

[@polyleritae]

Thanks for translating this :D

[@PleiadianValkryie]

I also am of German decent, but I really listen to German music (Rammstein, Eisbrecher, Blutengel, Megaherz) because the current crap that they are calling American music simply sucks. The music of these German bands makes me happy! The lyrics are thought provoking and frequently poetic quality (not the usual gangsta rap crap or people whining about their relationships, like in the USA.) LMFAO I also think German is a beautiful language. The sounds are pleasant to my ears.

[@RonnyRunescape]

ich bin amerikanisch und ich hoere gern deutsche musik weil es gut klingt. und ich glaube dass ich mit musik besser lernen kann.

[@JKinder313]

@Dragonbornn In more colloquialistic means, as I believe is being used in the song, "amok" can just mean "crazy" or "insane". "To run amok" is a good example for English because it means essentially "we're running crazy" as in being hyper and just doing whatever. Haha

[@rene78]

wow, those lyrics are sick!

[@REAL-NANO]

Head banged the whole time... then even though Im only 28 years old, the parental side of me came out and said; "violence through children is wrong!" SHIT >.

[@dennisfischer3775]

Translation error @ 2:35 " wir stehn unter schook" "We're still under shock " I lit your video btw

[@ShredderandShod]

When he says Wir stehn unter Schock, shouldn't it translate to "We're standing in shock." Not "We're in shock" I don't know a lot of German, but that stood out to me and made more sense.

[@TheIstSlade421]

I doubt the ancestry really matters for majority of Americans, but I like the way German sounds.

[@craigm732]

Wir laufen amok!

[@saucygypsy6124]

Ich auch

[@tf2heavy2]

Wunderbar, Don't say something if its wrong xD

[@ollie7869]

lmao at all the nerds trying to make this an anti school shooting thing, or anti-war. this is metal, what are you doing here if you can't even acknowledge what the songs about? go listen to lofi or acoustic guitar in a field or something

[@feenstra1174]

💜

[@FowCowMow]

I wonder if this isn't a commentary on American school shootings.

[@anactualalpaca7016]

I think its just him violence in general

[@jaulloa21]

Germans don’t care about America.

[@Dragonbornn]

beautiful language ... Sturmgewehr is way more bad ass than just assualt rifle :D

[@JadedKate]

Storm gun 😎

[@helloworldies]

I listen to it 'cause I like it :)

[@DerxWiedergaenger]

I'd like to believe it is because a decently sized portion of our immigrant population originally was of germanic descent. So it's all about going back to our roots -- or it is for me, at least.

[@Vanessa-qj1vo]

Wtf

[@Steinhour]

JA DiexFlamme!!

[@gabizinhacba]

I think my ear had eargasms...

[@tanajoart]

I am wondering why so many american people listen to german music, rammstein ,too. Is it, because of how the language sounds or what? :0 I dont think you can understand everything without lyrics :D Must say : I love this song - good work ;)

[@angydog114]

[@ElektroStyle2011]

heisst das nicht pumpgun anstadtt popcorn?

[@SUBSPACEOFFICIAL]

I'd say because they make awesome music. Germans however, can understand the lyrics to Bueck Dich, Spiel Mit Mir, etc., which I guess all have kind of weird lyrics, so they get turned off early. Too bad for them!

[@laurensmith9103]

There isn't supposed to be "and" between scissors, light

[@RyleaLynn706]

It's the instrumentation.

[@7jesterfaces]

DAS LEID IST SEHR GUT!!!!!!!!!!

[@GhostSymphony]

Some strange translations... "komm heraus wenn du dich traust" = come out if you dare. And 'Gabeln' are forks. Also it's popgun not popcorn

[@Daemonenkind1990]

no it is "Popcorn" not Popgun

[@knackigersalat]

gute arbeit

[@laurensmith9103]

YOUR PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x3

[@xBlueWinter]

Actually I would say that it's because Rammstein and Eisbrecher make awesome music, end of story. The lyrics could have been in Italian and I'd listen to it anyway.

[@xxwolfxxwolf]

es heißt: Pumpgun oder Großkaliber. Nicht "Popcorn oder Großkaliber" aber sonst gut gemacht. ^_^

[@Daemonenkind1990]

Im Booklet der CD steht Popcorn

[@Dragonbornn]

i love this song but what does " amok" means ?

[@sandndust0499]

Its malasian word for wrath but germans would use it when people running around shooting others on the streets, cinemas, schools or other places

[@azazelgrigori7318]

Me gusta mas la música en lenguajes que no sean español. Eisbrecher lo mejor de lo mejor.

[@CelesticaDemonix]

Metal sounds so much better in Deutsch :P

[@Legal-104]

Ja

[@tanajoart]

well those things like amok happen here not very often. More in the USA . This song is not about german kids only.

[@angydog114]

[@herenion7765]

Des heißt Pumpgun und nicht Popcorn😂

[@Loptr__]

Im gekauften Album steht aber auch Popcorn in den Lyrics 🤔

[@somejarhead]

same for me

[@alpenjodel24]

= neue deutsche Härte :)

[@Wellensittichfreund]

why do yout think that it's just about german kids?! O.o

[@KazukiFerret]

I generally can understand most of it without the lyrics, mostly its lack of vocabulary that throws me when listening to music in German. I can usually listen and grasp about 80% of what's being said. Most of the higher art of the song is lost on me though, but the only way you can get pass that is to keep studying. Basically I listen to German music and watch stuff in German because I want to learn German and exposing myself the language is helpful.

[@tanajoart]

I see - nothing wrong with that. :D But most of the people just listen and don't know WHAT the text says in their language. Sure here is a translation but ... I don't think you count to this people :P just a fact that many people listen and they dont understand. :)

Lol what a vunderbar song ;}

[@stanthesquirrel4]

ja

[@SUBSPACEOFFICIAL]

Otherwise the German demographic would be much higher for NDH

[@TheMrNalsur]

I actually it from a different perspective. Today's kids are all about violence; video games and movies attribute to that. Just observe them.
