Help, I Need Foreign Punk

I need help compliling a playlist of foreign punk tunes. And when I say foreign I mean sung NOT in English. This would include Die toten Hosen or plastic bertrand etc etc.
Also bands that sing in english but have one or two songs in another language. ie NOFX doing "Champs dy Elysses".

With the combined music knowledge of this board, it shouldn't be too hard. Right?

    damn... i thought you were an American woman and you'd just missed a vital 'S' from your thread title!!! otherwise I was up for it :(
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Try Los Violadores from Argentina...Die Toten Hosen plays one tune of them very often. it´s called "uno, dos, ultraviolento"

    1. I'm a libertarian, give me a break.

    2. I was brought to every single Gas Huffer and Grunt Truck show imaginable when I was younger here in Seattle. So I was raised on Grunge and Punk.

    3. I'm the host of a radio show that plays a lot of grunge, punk, psychobilly, etc. I need new music I've never heard of.

    4. Not all punk is left wing anti-establishment stuff anyway, and no I'm not talking nazi shit either. How anti-establishment were the Ramones? Johnny Ramone himself was a hardcore right winger.

    5. What are you the punk police, make yourself useful and give me some foreign artists. ;)

    Gogol Bordello are a pretty fun alternative/punk band; I think they're Ukranian and some of their stuff is in the language.

    Nina Hagen. The only song that springs to mind at the moment is 'Ich glotz TV', but I think there must be something more punk out there.
    Plastic Bertrand is considered punk? Now I have Ca Plane Pour Moi stuck in my head :mad:

    Berurier Noir (mentioned above) is pretty good. Other good French punk/rock bands are Noir Desire (sort of punk/metal) and Outrage (kind of ska/punk - they remind me a little of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones).

    I was listening to Beru before Pearl Jam, they're definitly a classic punk bands, sapperskunk should play them on his show...

    I totally am. I like these guys a lot, I'm playing Au Quebec along with some Los Violadores. Unfortunately I checked out the other artists mentioned and they were a little too "off" for the show.

    But thanks everybody, I gotta burn this CD and head to class. But thanks again and tune in for the greatest rock show this side of the Euphrates at 8:00 pm Pacific at KSER.ORG We take requests at 425 303-9070


    Oh and "Ca plane pour moi" is close enough. Sorry I got it stuck in your head.

    That's great about Berurriers Noirs, after posting in this thread i had to listen to their music, it's the first time i listen to music in the "tape cassette" format in years :) (i need to go buy their cds).

    Out of the bands i named, Les Breastfeeders are my favorite, i like their garage rock n roll sound, i'm sure you could find a song that fits your show, and Ça Plane Pour Moi sure is a catchy song...
