2) Penicillin were a German band (based in the town of Kottweiler) rooted in jazz-rock.
Formed in 1971 by Fred Felder (vocals) and Waldemar Ruth (drums), they had changed a lot over the years before their debut recordings. This was down to the fact that the band was often a large metamorphic troupe of up to 12 or 15 musicians, based around a pretty constant core of five, and that they'd experimented with everything from Hörspiel through to classical, combining such elements into their own unique sound.

あなたの顔が見えない
かすかに感じる痛み
嘘で固めたコネクション
Walkin' in the rain 時を越えて
Walkin' in the rain 愛し合えた
とがった雨に撃たれて
アスファルトにはりついた
メッキの剥げたリレイション
Walkin' in the rain 傷つくこと
Walkin' in the rain 恐れていた
ああ 降り注ぐ哀しみが
壊れた僕の胸に
ああ あなたさえ信じられないから
もっと激しく DEAD or ALIVE
もっと激しく
ひ弱な顔を脱ぎ捨て
踏みつぶして唾を吐け
あなたを愛しすぎれば
憎み始めるリアクション
Walkin' in the rain 裏切られて
Walkin' in the rain 震えていた
ああ 戻せない想い出に
甘える 僕の中身
ああ 愛なんて思いきり蹴飛ばせ
もっと激しく DEAD OR ALIVE
もっと激しく
Walkin' in the rain 時を越えて
Walkin' in the rain 愛し合えた
Walkin' in the rain 裏切られて
Walkin' in the rain 愛が消えた
ああ 少しでもなくすなら
全てを失いたい
ああ あなたさえ信じられないから
もっと激しく DEAD or ALIVE

The lyrics of the song "DEAD or ALIVE" by Penicillin describes a tumultuous relationship between two people. The song begins with a reference to a "cold current of people," suggesting a detachment or unfeelingness that the singer feels towards the people around him. He can't see the face of the person he is searching for amidst this detachment, and feels only the faint pain of a connection he has built on lies. The two lovers were able to love each other under the piercing rain, but it seems they hurt each other more than anything else. The singer hears screams from somewhere and realizes that his relationship is like a relation with the peeled metal layer. The previous love turns into pain, and they both try to become each other, resulting in a destructive love that they both cannot escape.
In the second verse, the singer sheds his weak face and spits out his disgust. He starts hating the person he loved too much, and the relation is suffocating him. He is trembling from the betrayal he has suffered, and unable to forget the memories he cherishes. He wants to throw away the idea of love because it only leads to pain, and only wants to feel the intensity of the moment- dead or alive.

GISHOさん作曲では、これとmelodyと2強だなぁ、個人的には。本人はミディアム曲とかが好きそうなイメージだけど、GISHOさんがたまに作る激しい曲はカッコいい。 ベースも目立ってる。
