In the winter of 2003/2004 our current god of the guitar, Carl, joined the band. At that time we were recording our fifth EP, Movie Stars on Ice. This was also around the time that we created our trademark school uniform outfit that we wear on stage to this day. 2004 was a busy and successful year for us; we prevailed against 6,000 other bands in the well-known Emergenza-Contest. We also toured throughout Germany, Denmark and France (over 100 gigs!) with much success as we simultaneously recorded our Love Songs EP.
By this point America was simply asking to be conquered by us as well. In August of 2005 we played several gigs on the Vans Warped Tour in the United States. We had a blast, but alas, had to return to Germany to continue building our established success. At that point it was time to rebuild Mr. Brown in the interest of our escalating future. That is why Hanni (drums) and Chris (bass) replaced two former members in the fall of 2005. With these two awesome additions Mr. Brown is currently rocking the world harder and more efficiently then ever. Since Hanni and Chris joined Mr. Brown, we have performed an additional 50 gigs with them that have all been pulled off spectacularly. We are currently finished with recording our album that were working on throughout 2005. It is not available to buy or listen to yet, and we know the anticipation is driving you mad, but dont worry, its on its way!

Mr. Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You gotta keep quiet to yourself
Another day another demon
Everyday's a stepping stone
Anything that we do now
Has its own consequences
Anything that we say now
You understand that
They'll say you'll never make it
But my guy just do your own oo
They always gonna undermine you
Until the fame and money comes
Anything that we say now
Can never take back
You understand that
And anywhere that we go now
You gotta watch out for undercover
For undercover
You bеtter watch out for undercover
For undеrcover
You gotta watch out for undercovers
For undercover
You better watch out for undercover
For undercover
You better watch out for undercovers
Anyone you gonna trust now
You gotta vibe and feel em out oo
Another day, another blessing
Everyday's a chance for growth
Many things that I see now
Has a G contemplating
Any day can be grey now
Gotta be strong smart
Gotta withstand that
They will say you'll never make it
But my guy just do your own
They always gonna undermine you
Until the fame and money comes
Anything that we say now
Can never take back
You understand that
And anywhere that we go now
You gotta watch out for undercover
