First Arsch

First Arsch ("First Ass") was a Schwerin-based garage rock punkband formed in 1986 by Till Lindemann, lead-vocalist for the German band Rammstein. He played the drums. The other members were Jörg E. Mielke, Paul H. Landers and Richard Zven Kruspe, of whom the last two are in Rammstein now as well. First Arsch was also known under the name "First Art". This was probably done to disctract the authorities, by letting them believe it was an art group. Members: Paul Landers - rytm guitar, vocals Richard Zven Kruspe - lead guitar, vocals Till Lindemann - drums, vocals Jörg E. Mielke - bass guitar, vocals
