Track By Tracks: XTR Human - Schrank (2024)

1. FRUST:

I question why many people seemingly become more conservative or right-leaning as they get older. Is it due to nostalgia, or do we simply lose the ability to remain self-critical and curious about new things?

2. SCHRANK:

German rigidity collides with neoliberal values. As long as everything is going well for me, I can ignore everything else. Furthermore, "Schrank" can mean a heavily built person or a piece of furniture. What are you?

3. I WANT MORE:

The title says it all. When do we have enough? What do we do to fulfill our desires? And what will we sacrifice in the process?

4. NEID:

NEID means "Envy" in English. "Who works hard enough can achieve anything. If one has nothing, it's a sign they haven't worked hard enough. Does this sound like the German dream?

5. BERLIN:

Berlin is a behemoth. If you're not careful, it'll swallow you whole, without a trace.

6. BETON:

This song is for all construction workers. Without concrete, our world would crumble.

7. EBM TRAIN:

Who's up for a party? Hop on the EBM Train and never arrive. The journey is the destination. Maximum bass and fun.

8. ÜBELTÄTER:

Everyone has a dark side. We tame it in everyday life. The song is an irony about what we are capable of, or would be capable of.

9. LETZTE CHANCE:

Sometimes in life, there it is, the last chance. Now or never. Life stands on the edge of the abyss. We hope it turns out well one more time.
