Frank Vohwinkel comments the song: "Berlin is always worth the journey! We tried to save all the experiences we've made in this city and what Berlin means to us in this song. Especially the SO36 and Kreuzberg, which stand for free thinker and artists, became kind of a home for us! Berlin - feel kissed!"

It has taken nearly twenty years to turn the band from a hobby into a professional living, which BETONTOD have pulled off. Playing over 1000 concerts, releasing 7 studio albums (their release »Revolution« reached #3 in the official German charts!) and 3 live albums as well as performing twice at the biggest metal festival of the world, Wacken, shows that they know what they are doing!
"The mainstream will never like us because we’re different! We’re different than all the other acts that are played every day. We aren’t smooth, we have rough edges… and it’s good the way it is!” Writer and composer Frank Vohwinkel’s statement explains the ethos of BETONTOD. Shying away from mainstream coverage on the radio and in press, the band exude a DIY attitude and it’s what drives them as a band.
