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.
The beginning
Slut Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Coming closer to the point
Where ambitions use to sleep
Floating hopeless in the shade
Of an old-time serenade
No more people do we need
No more voices here to sing
Let's be quiet, turn us off
This is the beginning of the end
We're strangers in a stranger's land
Let's make war instead of love
We're dancing to what none of you can hear
And we're shaking, shaking, shaking without fear
Someone borrow me a gun
For all the millions having fun
Let's make war instead of love
Let's make war instead of love
Let's make war instead of love
Let's make war instead of love
The lyrics to "The Beginning" by Slut are dark and unsettling, painting a picture of a bleak and hopeless world. The singer describes themselves as "floating lifeless in a void," suggesting a feeling of emptiness and aimlessness. They reference "ambitions" that used to exist but no longer do, implying a sense of loss or defeat. The tone is melancholy and resigned as they continue to describe their surroundings as "hopeless" and lacking in people or voices.
The chorus takes a darker turn, as the singer suggests that it's time to turn off all noise and make war instead of love. The implication is that love is dead or no longer important, and that violence is the only way forward. The phrase "Let's make war instead of love" repeats three times, underscoring the importance of this idea to the singer.
The closing lines ask for someone to "borrow me a gun" in order to join in this call to violence. The vibe of the song is ominous and unsettling, suggesting a world that has lost its way and sees no hope for the future.
