Play Loud! Productions present the first vinyl reissue of German band Die Regierung's 1992 album, So Drauf. It was their first record on the famous Hamburg based L'Age D'Or label. Christoph Gurk writes, "Led by an acidhead, who is already in his thirties, the singer/songwriter band has lived through an erratic career. Originally founded as a home-recording outfit, Die Regierung ('The Government') released a seminal debut album -- Supermüll (PL 057LP, 1984) -- in the aftermath of German New Wave (NDW)." Die Regierung anticipated the sound that, years later, became known as the Hamburger Schule, and set the tone for German independent music in the early '90s. Die Regierung had a huge influence on Germany's most famous independent Hamburger Schule band, Tocotronic, but they never hit it big. Includes two bonus tracks. Edition of 500.

Play Loud! Productions present the first vinyl release of German band Die Regierung's 1994 album Unten. It was their second record on the famous Hamburg based L'Age D'Or label. Afterwards the band disintegrated. The record was voted by the German music magazine Musikexpress among the 750 best records ever. Christoph Gurk writes "Led by an acidhead, who is already in his thirties, the singer/songwriter band has lived through an erratic career. Originally founded as a home-recording outfit, Die Regierung ('The Government') released a seminal debut album -- Supermüll (PL 057LP, 1984) -- in the aftermath of German New Wave (NDW)."

This live double album was recorded during the heyday of Die Regierung in 1994. After their 1994 tour, the band did not officially dissolve, but never ended up playing together again -- until a one-off reunion show in 2015 in Essen, Germany, the city where everything began. This 1994 recording features a lineup of Tilman Rossmy (vocals, guitar), Robert Lipinski (bass), Thomas Geier (drums), Thies Mythner (guitar, keyboard), Mense Reents (guitar), and Herman Herrmann (guitar). Recorded on February 8, 1994, at Logo in Hamburg. Reworking of the master tapes and mastering by Hans-Joachim Irmler and Andreas Schmid at Faust Studio.

Play Loud! Productions presents the first vinyl reissue (along with a tribute album) of German band Die Regierung's 1984 debut album Supermüll, which Michael Ruff (Spex magazine) called "the best German record of the 80s." In his liner notes for the Sturm und Twang! compilation (Big Cat, 1995), Christoph Gurk writes, "Led by an acidhead, who is already in his thirties, the singer/songwriter band has lived through an erratic career. Originally founded as a home-recording outfit, Die Regierung (The Government) released a seminal debut album (Supermüll/Super Trash/1984) in the aftermath of German New Wave (NDW)." With Supermüll, Die Regierung anticipated the sound that, years later, became known as the Hamburger Schule, and set the tone for German independent music in the early '90s. Die Regierung had a huge influence on Germany's most famous independent Hamburger Schule band, Tocotronic, but they never hit it big. Now this seminal and very influential album is reissued on vinyl, remastered by Hans Joachim Irmler and Andreas Schmid at Faust Studio. The second disc is a tribute album, featuring Schneider TM, Die Sterne, Doc Schoko, Dirk von Lowtzow (Tocotronic), Nina Reisinger, Gebrüder Teichmann, OMO feat. Herman Herrmann, Power & Charme, Pascal Fuhlbrügge, Julia Wilton, Steine, DJ Marcelle/Another Nice Mess, and Beck Harris. Limited to 500 copies.
