Keine Macht für Niemand

No power for nobody is the name of the second album and also the most famous song of the band Sharam. The double LP from 1972 is also referred to as "the White ", because the cover very simple - white background, black font - is maintained.

The album as a complete work, as well as the song No power for nobody denounces social and political grievances. The texts call for resistance to the existing system. In the final battle, we will win the call for a replacement of the capitalist system at its clearest. At the same time is "No power for nobody" parolisierte a translation of the term anarchy.

Importance as a slogan

According to Rio Reiser the slogan comes from the anarcho- stoner newspaper Germania. Certainly not unintentionally, the title as well is " Destroy what makes you broke " as a slogan. Thus we find "No power for nobody" even today - almost 40 years after the release - even on banners of the anarchist, autonomous and alternative scene or as graffiti on the walls of houses - as requested in the text "Write the password to any wall. "

After the 2005 federal election even headlined the Mirror: "No power for nobody", in reference to the confusing for pollsters and politicians election result.
