Warum geht es mir so dreckig? (Why am I so miserable?) is the first album released by the German rock band Ton Steine Scherben. It includes—among other pieces—the song Macht kaputt, was euch kaputt macht ("Destroy what is destroying you"), which expressed the built-up anger and radicalization of the youth of the late 1960s and early 1970s.

In 1971, after the release of the first single "Macht kaputt, was euch kaputt macht", the band went to Klaus Freudigmann's studio in Berlin to record their first album. The setup for the recordings was not ideal, and the sound quality suffered as a result. This is not surprising, as all the band's output was self-produced. As such, the recording sessions were also not entirely satisfactory.

According to Rio Reiser, the phrase came from an anarchist publication called Germania. Similarly, the song "Macht kaputt, was euch kaputt macht" also has a title in the same vein. In Germany, even 35 years after the album's release, the phrase will appear on banners and posters produced in the leftist scene, or as graffiti; the song's lyrics call to "write the slogan onto every wall." After the 2005 election, Der Spiegel used the phrase on the cover in reaction to the election results.

Bejar released Poison Season on August 28, 2015. Bejar notes that the album's sound grew from "just really getting into what we were sounding like playing live [following Kaputt]." Bejar added that he would not have been able to make such an ambitious album if Kaputt had not been successful. Recorded with a live band and a pronounced string section, the album's "grand cinematic set of songs" feature Bejar singing with a broader range than before: "This is the first record that I've ever done that comes close to my idea of myself as a singer", Bejar said.

With the help of these diplomats, the manuscript finally reached Malaparte in Italy, where he was able to publish it. One of the most well-known and often quoted episodes of Kaputt concerns the interview which Malaparte - as an Italian reporter, supposedly on the Axis side - had with Ante Pavelić, who headed the Croat puppet state set up by the Nazis. Milan Kundera's view of the Kaputt is summarized in his essay The Tragedy of Central Europe:Milan Kundera's essay 'The Tragedy of Central Europe' in La Lettre internationale 1983. According to D. Moore's editorial note, in The Skin, The book was condemned by the Roman Catholic Church, and placed on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum.

Kaputt, his novelistic account of the war, surreptitiously written, presents the conflict from the point of view of those doomed to lose it. Malaparte's account is marked by lyrical observations, as when he encounters a detachment of Wehrmacht soldiers fleeing a Ukrainian battlefield, In the foreword to Kaputt, Malaparte describes in detail the convoluted process of writing. He had started writing it in the autumn of 1941, while staying in the home of Roman Souchena in the Ukrainian village of Pestchianka, located near the local "House of the Soviets" which was requisitioned by the SS; the village was then just two miles behind the front. Souchena was an educated peasant, whose small home library included the complete works of Pushkin and Gogol.

In arachnology, the caput or "head" is the cephalic part of a cephalothorax. The German word kaputt ("destroyed"), from which derives the English colloquialism 'kaput' or 'caput' (meaning done, or finished) is not related to this word. The origin of the German word, and consequently the English words is borrowing from the or fig. 'to be defeated'.

English is a Germanic language. As a result, many words are distantly related to German. Most German words relating to World War I and World War II found their way into the English language, words such as Blitzkrieg, Anschluss, Führer, and Lebensraum; food terms, such as bratwurst, hamburger and frankfurter; words related to psychology and philosophy, such a gestalt, Übermensch, zeitgeist, and realpolitik. From German origin are also: wanderlust, schadenfreude, kaputt, kindergarten, autobahn, rucksack.

For Trouble in Dreams (2008), "there was a scary lack of ideas coming into the record", Bejar admitted. Destroyer's piano player Ted Bois took it upon himself, as an alternative to keyboard and piano accompaniment, to create all string and synth arrangements for the songs.

The articles he sent back from the Ukrainian Fronts, many of which were suppressed, were collected in 1943 and brought out under the title Il Volga nasce in Europa ("The Volga Rises in Europe"). The experience provided the basis for his two most famous books, Kaputt (1944) and The Skin (1949).

Band leader Dan Bejar "lifted" the name ken from an early version of the song "The Wild Ones" by Suede. Despite sharing a title, Bejar claims that he "was not thinking about Suede when making this record" and that it was " unclear to me what that purpose is, or what the connection is". Unlike previous records, Poison Season and Kaputt, Bejar composed most of the songs on guitar rather than on a computer. The majority of the songs on ken were written and debuted live while Bejar was touring in early 2017.

Have We Met was initially conceived by group leader Dan Bejar as a "Y2K album" with instrumentals inspired by the music of Björk, Air, and Massive Attack and 90's trip hop. The concept was quickly scrapped, with Bejar later explaining in an interview with Stereogum, "It wasn't a sound that really conjured up anything to anyone." Bejar characterizes the album as a "record born of isolation" with the motif of "a couple individuals huddled around the glow of the computer light." The album features a return to Bejar's stream of consciousness lyrics, previously employed on Kaputt (2011).

228-229; Antonic, Zapisi Pere Djukanovica, p.65-66; Nikolic, ‘Kravica u proslosti’, p.23. According to the latter source, more than a hundred Serbs were killed in Drinjaèe by 12 August 1941. Ivanisevic claims that the basket full of eyes from Serbs came from Drinjaèa. This basket was found by Italian war journalist, Curzio Malaparte, at Ante Pavelic’s desk during a late-summer visit to Zagreb in 1941, (an episode which he described in his autobiographical war novel Kaputt). The Ustashe had sent these as a ‘present’ to their leader (Ivanisevic, Hronika naseg groblja, p.23).

During World War II, both nations maintained diplomatic relations, however, neither country had a resident ambassador. In 1942 Count Agustín de Foxá, Minister at the Spanish Legation in Helsinki, helped the Italian writer Curzio Malaparte - at the time a war correspondent in Finland - smuggle to Italy the manuscript of his book Kaputt and prevent its falling into the hands of the Gestapo. Diplomatic relations between both nations normalized in 1955 with the naming and posting of resident ambassadors in their respective capitals. In 1978, President Urho Kekkonen became the first Finnish head-of-state to pay an official visit to Spain.

The album's recording style marks a shift from the band-orientated recording approach of previous Destroyer albums. Bejar recorded vocals for the album at night at his kitchen table, singing into a microphone connected to his laptop running GarageBand. He sent the vocals as well as demos of the album's songs to longtime producer John Collins, who worked on the songs on his laptop and iPad for three months at his home in Seattle, adding layers of synthesizers and rhythm sections with guitar lines by Nicolas Bragg. Collins also used fragments from previous Destroyer recording sessions to create soundscapes, including saxophone from Kaputt and trumpet from Poison Season (2015).

Bejar cited influences such as Miles Davis and Roxy Music for his new jazz-infused, lounge music-inspired, sophisti-pop direction. In multiple interviews, Bejar variously stressed that he "sang in a completely different manner, almost unconscious of even singing, more like speaking into a vacuum, and was really happy with the results." The record entailed a number of firsts for Destroyer: first national television performance (on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon); first official music video; first female backing vocals; and the first time Bejar performed without an instrument on tour – his concentration placed solely on his singing. Kaputt was short listed for the 2011 Polaris Music Prize and was Pitchfork's second best album of 2011.

Miller 1988 Another eyewitness, Sergeant Ted Smout, reported that Richthofen's last word was "kaputt" ("finished") immediately before he died.Discovery Channel, 2002, Unsolved History: Death of the Red Baron (television documentary) The RAF credited the "kill" to Brown, although it is now considered all but certain by historians, doctors, and ballistics experts that Richthofen was actually killed by an AA machine gunner firing from the ground. The identity of the person who shot the Baron remains uncertain; 0.303 ammunition was the standard ammunition for all machine guns and rifles used by British Empire forces during World War I. Many experts believe that the shot probably came from Popkin, though some believe that William John "Snowy" Evans may have been responsible.Unsolved History: Death of the Red Baron, 2002, Discovery Channel Autopsies revealed that the wound which killed the Baron was caused by a bullet moving in an upward motion.
