History Emils, whose name is a parody of another act called Slime, was founded
in Hamburg, Germany in 1987. The crossover act quickly garnered itself
a
good reputation and became an underground favourite. Emils, like many
German hardcore acts, was against racism and Nazism not the least of
which because the band's singer is Turkish. Carsten was out and Norbert
joined after the fourth album although Carsten was later heard in OHL
with Sven. The band called it a day in 1999 with their last album being
a Best Of...called Der Schwarze Fleck. In its day Emils toured with
bands like Attitude, Gorilla Biskuits, Baffdecks, Suckspeed, Capitol
Punishment and English Dogs. Secret 99 is a Bad Brains cover band.
