Die Rzte

die rzte (formerly known as "Die rzte") is a German rock/punk rock band from Berlin. die rzte (German for The Doctors) are self-proclaimed as "Die beste Band der Welt" ("The best band in the world"). Together with Die Toten Hosen, they are the best-known German punk rock band. They were formed in 1982 by Jan Vetter (aka Farin Urlaub), Dirk Felsenheimer (aka Bela B.) and Hans Runge (aka Sahnie). Sahnie left the band in 1986 and Hagen Liebing (aka The Incredible Hagen) filled in as bassist until the band broke up in 1988. In 1993 the band reunited with Rodrigo Gonzlez (aka Rod) playing bass. die rzte have shown no fear of controversy and have faced off with the German office for protection of children and young people BPJM over their tongue-in-cheek lyrics to Geschwisterliebe (claims of promoting incest), Claudia (claims of promoting zoophilia), and Sweet, Sweet Gwendoline (references to sexual bondage). The group has leveraged these controversies to their advantage and gained popularity by making fun of their censors. On their most recent album "Gerusch", they spell their name with three dots over the a in rzte, a sort of "triaresis" mark that does not correspond to any real language construct--a play on the heavy metal umlaut. This can be represented in Unicode: die a⃛rzte. Please note that "Die rzte", with two dots, is correct German orthography and not related to the heavy metal umlaut.
