Disarstar Releases 'Hamburger Aufstand,' a Personal, Politically Charged Album

Personal reinvention shapes the album's combative politics.

Overview

  • The 14-track, roughly 40-minute record arrived Friday and continues the arc set by "Deutscher Oktober" (2021) and "Rolex für alle" (2022).
  • Songs blend intimate narrative with systemic critique, including the anti-war "Meine Söhne geb' ich nicht," the family-centered "Familienchronik," and "Tochter" featuring singer Jassin.
  • Disarstar says sobriety over the past two and a half years and the birth of his son informed the writing and tone.
  • Despite more than 700,000 monthly Spotify listeners, he is pursuing a carpentry apprenticeship in Hamburg as a second pillar alongside music.
  • An autumn tour is announced with stops in Vienna, Zurich, Berlin and Cologne, with a Hamburg "Tanz in den Mai" date set for April 30.
