Germany

What is the most known band ?

It could be Scorpions and Tokio Hotel. But the thing with Tokio Hotel is little bit different. They have a lot of concerts abroad but they are not really popular in Germany.In fact, I don't like it at all. I prefer more band called Die Ärzte. I like this band because of lyrics. They usually sing about social problems, politics system in humorous way. With my friends we often sing their songs during camp fire or parties.

Slovakia

What is the most known band in Slovakia?

There are two bands. No name and Elán. For No name are typical love songs, but in fact, they are not too much sweet, like pop love songs use to be. Elán is old band. All parents in Slovakia are listening to them, because they remeber them from their teen age. Well, we don't really mind about them, but there are a lot of good bands in alternative scene. We would recommed The Uniques and aslo Billy Barman.

Our national instrument could be fujara. It's a long wooden flute (might to be two metres long) with very specific sound. You can not really make any melody from it, just this beautiful specific sound.
