The band was formed in 1995 by Christian Neuburger (vocals, guitar), Matthias Neuburger (drums), Rainer Schaller (guitar) and Gerd Rosenacker (bass guitar). After they had recorded their first album, René Arbeithuber (keyboard, vocals) joined.
From 1997 to 1998 they lived and recorded in a castle near Ingolstadt with René and Rainer's band, 'Pelzig'.
In February 2005 they took part in the Bundesvision Song Contest, playing their song 'Why Pourqoui?' They received few votes and finished twelfth out of sixteen competitors.
Slut was asked to do the musical support for an adaption of "Die Dreigroschenoper" (The Threepenny Opera) by the theater of Ingolstadt. After several successful showings they decided to record the whole music, but due to copyright problems (the Weill-Foundation holds the rights until 2020) Slut could only release an EP with 5 songs on it, including the popular song "Die Moritat von Mackie Messer"(Mack the Knife).
So far Slut is yet to appear live in Britain or the USA, despite several extensive European tours to Romania, The Czech Republic, Italy and France.
2) Second band called Slut was born in 1991. The band is from Prague (Czech Republic) and belongs to founders of Czech noise / hardcore.
Discography:
Sex Sucks (Scrape Sound, 1993)
Get Some Slut...Or Fuck Yourself (Scrape Sound, 1994)
Smell Me (PolyGram / Scrape Sound, 1996)
Luftganja (Indies Records, 1999)
Now they are preparing a new album.
3) A third band called Slut is actually an avant-garde collective of New York and Japanese musicians and improvisers, with a self-titled cd released in 1993 on God Mountain records. Musicians involve included Bradford Reed, Elliott Sharp, Zeena Parkins, Steve Ito, Acheilux, Marc Ribot, Jane Scarpntoni, Mark Anthony Thompson and Hoppy Kinayama. It's noteable for being one of the earliest cd's to feature the unusual acoustic sounds of Reed's invented pencillina instrument, and Acheilux's uniquely androgynous vocals.
Homesick
Slut Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The kind of emptiness that makes me leave this place
Just show your body to the entire human race
But don't say you like me with that empty kind of face
You're looking confident, you never had a doubt
The kind of confidence that makes me want to shout
Just take your time to think of what it's all about
Think it's time to go home
Time to go back home
To go back home
You use to speak as if you were innocent and clean
The kind of innocence that makes me want to scream
Just turn around and take a look behind the scene
But please don't speak as if you were innocent and clean
Think it's time to go home
Time to go back home
Think it's time to go home
Time for me to go back home
To go back home
To go back home
To go back home
To go back home
Think it's time to go home
Time to go back home
Think it's time to go home
Time for me to go back home
To go back home
The song "Homesick" by the band Slut is a complex critique of the pressures to conform to societal expectations and norms. The lyrics describe a person who is disingenuous in their expressions of affection and confidence, and who masks their true feelings and motivations with a facade of innocence and cleanliness. The singer of the song is critical of this person's behavior and warns against falling prey to their empty promises and illusions.
The repeated refrain of "Think it's time to go home / Time to go back home / To go back home" suggests a longing for a return to authenticity and honesty, and a rejection of the superficiality and fake appearances that are prevalent in our culture. The use of the word "homesick" underscores this desire for a connection to one's true self and a sense of belonging.
Overall, the song gives voice to the frustrations and disillusionment that many people feel in a world that values image over substance, and encourages listeners to resist the pressures to conform and instead embrace their authentic selves.
