The charismatic frontman is a legend in its own right. From
telephone salesman in a record company to their platinum-selling
top act within one and a half years - that is indeed the dream
career of anyone in the music business. Within the band he is the
one to set the pace - while Rick and Axel puzzle endlessly over
their synths-LED-displays, its H.P. who already ponders about new
concepts and reminds his collegues of the deadlines.
But obviously its his legendary shout-style that makes him the
cult-figure of the scene. It's not the meaning of the words I'm
interested in, he stresses, the phonetics of the lyrics have to
support the rhythm. A technique, that the 32-year-old has
practiced to perfection: on stage, its his usually energetic
cheers that drives the crowd into a frenzy.
