* BestialityIsDepraved: Once again played for laughs in "Claudia hat 'nen Schäferhund" (Claudia has got a german shepherd).

[[LongRunners Formed in 1982]], they broke up briefly in 1989, reuniting in 1993. They have released 11 studio albums with a twelfth planned for release in 2012. Their discography:

Die Ärzte (lit. The Doctors[[note]][[NotThatKindOfDoctor As in medical doctor/physician]].[[/note]]) are a punk rock/pop-punk band from Berlin, Germany. Along with Die Toten Hosen (lit. The Dead Pants) they are the most successful German punk act. In the [[{{TheNineties}} nineties]] they made a music video starring [[{{TombRaider}} Lara Croft]]. They [[SarcasmMode modestly]] refer to themselves as ''die b[[HeavyMetalUmlaut ä]]ste Band der Welt''; "the best band in the world."

* ''Runter mit den Spendierhosen, Unsichtbarer!'' ("Enough with the generosity, Mr. Invisible!"[[note]] literally "Take off your spending pants, Mr. Invisible["[/note]] 2000)

* MusicToInvadePolandTo: The song ''"Mit dem Schwert nach Polen, warum René"'' (''With a sword to poland, why René?'') discribes how a german boy with a life full of hardship tries to invade poland armed with a sword and two gaspowered handguns. He is stopped shortly behind the border and declares on national television he will visit Japan in search of a ninja master. The song is rather melancholic than epic.

* BlackSheepHit: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIHgZYwo9Ug&feature=related "Nur einen Kuss"]] (Just One Kiss) is a surprisingly depressing ballad, especially coming from the band that brought us [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJwWk64GBzw "Lasse redn"]]. [[note]]For those who don't speak German, this guy is in love with a girl, who in turn falls in love with a traveler. The traveler leaves, promising to return, but he never does, and she eventually dies of heartbreak. The protagonist goes searching for the traveler, and when he finally finds him, he kills him by cutting out his heart. [[WhamLine Yeah]].[[/note]]

* YouScrewOneGoat: Once again played for laughs in "Claudia hat 'nen Schäferhund" (Claudia has got a german shepherd).

** Lampshaded on their [[SelfParody spoof album]] "We don`t want the song, Farin. (...) I`ve talked to Rod and he doesn`t think it`s funny either"
* * BreakUpSong : [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nS4_lXJJois "1/2 Lovesong"]] of the "Please don`t go"- and "Mach die Augen zu" (Close your eyes'') of the "Teetering at the brink of a breakup"-variety
* BrotherSisterIncest: Their song "Geschwisterliebe" (Siblings` Love) is the TropeNamer for the german page.

* YouScrewOneGoat: Once again played for laughs in "Claudia hat `nen Schäferhund" (Claudia has got an alsatian).

* HeavyMetalUmlaut: Their logo is a parody of this; it's an A with ''three'' dots on top of it.

* ObligatoryBondageSong: Parodied in "Bitte, Bitte"
* SelfParody: Their spoof album "Jazz ist anders - Economy Version"

* IronicNurseryRhyme: PlayedForLaughs. Their song [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viz5E8_se4w "Schlaflied"]] is a lullaby about...[[HighOctaneNightmareFuel stuff that lullabies normally aren't about]].

* AllMenArePerverts: Parodied in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ie0sz9b_-Uw&feature=related Maenner sind Schweine]]. The song starts with calling them the "usual" pejorative terms; pigs, rats, etc., but by the end it's the nonsensical "men are cars."

!!This band provides examples of:

* [=~Everything's Deader With Zombies~=]: Farin and especially Bela are quite fond of the horror genre. Cue the "Pro Zombie Song", the !anti Zombie Song" and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMJo5dIJEx4 the video for "Junge"]]
