The band was formed in December 1992 and decided to split in 2006. It was seen for the last time at the farewell concert at the Stadtbahnhof in Schweinfurt on May 20, 2006. On March 17, 2017, Tagtraum played with its original lineup for a one-off concert as part of Matze Rossi's birthday gala at Stadtbahnhof Schweinfurt. The band emphasized that this was not a reunion, but really a one-time thing.
The individual band members continue to play in other formations: Tobias Götz and Bernhard Schmidt in Sondermarke, David Gruber and Jörg Holdinghausen in Boink, Jörg Holdinghausen in Tele and Wir sind Helden, Matthias Nürnberger as solo artist Senore Matze Rossi and together with Tobias Götz in the bands Gaston and Signals to Aircraft.
In general, Tagtraum is often referred to as a pop-punk band rather than a full-fledged punk band, something they clearly distance themselves from. The same applies to the term German punk, which is attributed to Tagtraum primarily because of their German-language lyrics.
However, in the songs from the early days of the band, "punky" tendencies can be recognized both musically and occasionally in terms of content. Over time, however, influences from the alternative American music scene became increasingly important, the style became more variable, calmer and more melancholic.
Tagtraum is often compared with the also German Muff Potter or the American At the Drive-In and Alkaline Trio.
Thematically Tagtraum deals with society, interpersonal and feelings in general, packed in small stories of everyday life. In the beginning melancholy, world- and soul-weariness played an important role, which in the course of time gave way to a positive world view.
Musically, Tagtraum packs this into a synthesis of the intensity of high-speed and mid-tempo punk rock as well as quiet and melodic passages. « hide |
