The lousy autumn 1986 in Reutlingen, South Germany, seemed to be just right to puke a thing like Sumpfpäpste into the world. First being a side-project of the legendary hardcore punk band Genossen, Sumpfpäpste soon developped to be a real band, ready to gig the squats, mouldy basemants and rundown clubs of Southwest Germany. The big followership of homeless people, punks and freaks prooved the band right to be the "Popes of the Swamp".
After the first demotape, which sold quite a few, the band improved its sound and got faster and harder. In 1988 Sumpfpäpste released their first demo produced in the fully professional "Marquee Studio", which got very good reviews in "Maximum Rock'n Roll", "Flipside" and the Dutch "Metal Hammer". Gigs followed all over Germany, Belgium and Hungary and the popes were offered a record deal by "We Bite Rec." and the "Marquee Studio" as producer. In 1990 "See what it is" was released and became a classic of German punkrock. In 1995 Sumpfpäpste recorded another demotape, "You will always
still", which became the last recordings with singer Micha, who preferred to change sides and became a concert manager in Stuttgart.
With new energy and a new line-up the band wrote new songs and rearranged the existing older titles. After another change in the line-up, Sumpfpäpste stabilized and were ready to gig again and record their first CD in 2000. In the same year Reutlingen`s football team entered the Second German league and Sumpfpäpste payed their tribute with a fansong on the Mini-CD titled "SSV 05".
