Megaherz introduction

Hi all, one of the groups we will write about is Megaherz (English “Mega-heart”, a pun on the homophone megahertz).

This German Neue Deutsche Härte group was formed in 1993 in Munich, Germany. One of the band’s most famous songs is Gott sein (“To be God”) on their first full album Wer Bist Du? (“Who Are You?”). Megaherz’s early albums all included at least one song based on a classic German fairy tale. Examples include “Rapunzel” on the album Kopfschuss & “Windkind” (“Wind child”) on Himmelfahrt.
