The band was founded by Philipp Burger (vocals, guitar) and Jonas Notdurfter (guitar) in September 2001. Jochen Gargitter (bass) and Christian Fohrer (drums) joined the band shortly after. In the beginning the band tried to imitate other German-speaking bands like Böhse Onkelz and Rammstein. In 2002 their first album "Eines Tages" was released, followed by "Wo die Sonne wieder lacht" in 2003. Their third album "Mensch oder Gott" was released in 2004 and their fourth "Mitten ins Herz" after the band changed the label in 2006. In 2007 the live DVD "Von Nah und Fern" was released, followed by the studio album "Gegen alles, gegen nichts" in 2008. The album "Hart am Wind" was released in 2009 via the newly founded label Rookies &amp; Kings. In 2010 the album "Gegengift" appeared, which reached number two in the German album charts and earned the band a nomination as Best National Rock/Alternative Group at the 2011 Echo Awards. The 2012 album "Feinde deiner Feinde" again made number two of the German album charts and was nominated for the 2013 Echo Awards. The nomination was withdrawn later on. In May 2013 the gold edition of "Feinde deiner Feinde" reached number one in the German album charts. Their ninth studio album "Still" contains acoustic songs and entered the German album charts at number one in December 2013.
