Ab 18
Ab 18 [Over 18] is the sixth album by German rock band Die Ärzte. It is an EP compilation of which three songs were put in the German List of Media Harmful to Young People. The album was banned in Germany on 10 December. The banned songs were, at the time, "Geschwisterliebe", "Claudia hat 'nen Schäferhund" and "Schlaflied". As of 2012, only "Geschwisterliebe" is still banned. Background. "Ab 18" includes, among other things, the songs "Geschwisterliebe" and "Claudia hat 'nen Schäferhund" which were indexed at the time of the release of the album and "Schlaflied". Another previously released  song on the record was "Sweet Sweet Gwendoline", which already appeared on "Die Ärzte" and was not indexed. However, it was controversial because of the glorification of sadomasochism. New songs include "Sie kratzt, sie stinkt sie klebt" and "Claudia II", the sequel to "Claudia hat nen Schäferhund". Another song was "Helmut K.", which claimed that Helmut Kohl tyrannized his wife and about which it was later falsely stated that it had been banned in Bavaria. After the suicide of Hannelore Kohl In 2001, Die Ärzte distanced themselves from the song "Helmut K." and no longer played it for a few  years at their concerts until it was taken back into the set on 29 December 2006 at the concert in SO36 in Berlin. The album "Ab 18" was indexed on 31 October 1987. However, "Die Ärzte" had anticipated this move by the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young People and had a sticker put on the CD with the label ""This CD may not be advertized and made available to young people for reasons of Youth Protection"". The inner cover itself was indexed on 31 December 1987 as well. In the track list of the LP in the first  edition there was a spelling mistake: "Gwendoline" was written with "y" instead of "i". This was corrected in the second edition. The album, despite its indexing, reached position 33 in the German album charts. There were no single releases of any of the songs on this album.
