"The album is quite cool but why the hell "Planet Punk"? It is the only Aerzte-cd on which there are really NO punk-songs. I suggest buying "Die Bestie in Menschengestalt" and "Das Beste von kurz anch frueher bis Jetzte"."

Schöne Platte, gute Musik, aber dähmliche Texte.

"Berliner Knabe tut Meinung kund.Diese CD ist zwar ein Ohrenschmaus, aber das Niveau der Texte ist erbärmlich. Da haben die Ärzte meiner Meinung nach schon bessere Platten abgeliefert. Allerdings kann ich sie deshalb allen nicht deutsch-sprechenden Musikfans, egal ob Punk gern gehört wird oder nicht, wärmstens empfehlen. Schade das es nur diese CD hier zu kaufen gibt. Die beste Platte von den Ärzten ist nämlich "DAS BESTE VON KURZ NACH FRÜHER BIS JETZE" (Sony). 34 Songs, die auch den Intellekt des deutschen Fans fordern."

This is Comedy Rock

"Ok, you also might like it, when you don't understand the lyrics, because it's a nice'n'catchy mix between Fun Punk, Pop, Hard Rock and Metal. But if you want to understand, why "Die Ärzte" are really huge in germany, then you got to know that it's because of their lyrics. Songs like "Die Banane", "Meine Ex(plodierte Freundin)", "Mein Freund Michael", "Trick 17", "Rod Loves You" are pure, world class comedy. You just have to laugh about those songs - if you understand them. Of course, they wouldn't be that successfull, if the music wouldn't be good. You might compare them to the likes of Blink 182. But that's normally not my type of music. I absolutely love this band simply because of the lyrics, and their way to use the german language and match their comedy with their music. It's mainly fun punk stuff, but they like to switch between all kinds of musical styles. They even have a grindcore-song on the album "Le Frisur" ("Dauerwelle vs Minipli"). This album is 70 minutes of pure fun."
