Is anybody else a fan of these? A good deal of them are excellent (read: ones that aren't Nazi propaganda), and are great for a listen any time of the day. My favorites are:

Hohenfriedberger Marsch
Der Koniggratzer Marsch
Jaegermarsch
Jung Deutschland
Mittenwalder Burgfuhrer Marsch
Preussens Gloria
Westerwald Marsch

Come on then, list your favorites!

I know that I put this in my other thread, but it's relevant to the topic, so I'm doing it anyway.

It's the Westerwald Marsch, and isn't very well-known. It's a nice tune with some very good vocals.

I know the metal but not the marchs. Are those ones you have classic style march's? or are they more modern versions?
Whats a good initial one to try to get a feel of? I only have dial up so at 15mins or so a song I would rather try one that was good for a march newb rather than download something rank.

The link I posted is to a World War II-style march. Well, an update of a Prussian classic. A good update.

The Nazis used most military marches for propaganda. That doesn't necessarily mean the music itself is bad. The Horst-Wessel-Lied is bad, for instance.
Usually I don't like that rumtata music.
But I really enjoy watching 'trooping the colours' on tv once ore twice a year.

Germany has allways had a well disciplined military and the marches are very well organized. Very interesting to see.

Perhaps it's because Rammstein is industrial metal, not a German military march?
Just a wild guess.

Come on NA you know thats a lie!



If this was German id post it here!

In the days that have now gone
when the Maoris went to war
They fought and fought until the last man died
for the honour of their tribe
And so we carry on
the conditions they have laid
And as we go on day by day
You will always hear us say...


Maori Battalion march to victory
Maori Battalion staunch and true
Maori Battalion march to glory
Take the honour of the people with you
We will march, march, march to the enemy
And we'll fight right to the end.
For God! For King! And for Country!
AU - E! Ake, ake, kia kaha e!



A loyal band of Maoris
Sailing from New Zealand
To win us freedom and peace
Marching shoulder to shoulder onward
And we will shout again
Ake aka kia kaha e
Haere tonu haere tonu ra
Kia - o - ra Kia - o - ra


Te Ope Mäori Hïkoi kia toa
Te Ope Mäori kia kaha ra
Te Ope Mäori hikoi kia kororia ai
Mauria te hönore o te iwi.
Ka hïkoi mätou ki te hoariri
Whawhaitia tae noa ki te mutunga
Mö te Atua! Mo te kingi! Me te whenua!
AU-E!, ake ake kia kaha e! Maori Battalion march to victory
Maori Battalion so very staunch
Maori Battalion march to glory
Be living expression of the honour of the people.
We will march to the enemy
Put them to flight at the end.
For God! For King! And for country!
AU - E! Forever and ever be strong!

Bah. The Nazi's shouldn't be the criteria by which you measure something.
Otherwise you couldn't do anything what Hitler and his butch boys did. Hitler for example was a fanatic vegetarian. The Nazi's pushed cancer research. (before someone brings in Mengele. That was before the war.)
They were the first to warn about the dangers of smoking.
Now you want to ban all those things cause the Nazi's had interest in it?

I never heard any of those.
But I like the Radetzky marsch by Johann Strauss. Allthough I'm not sure thats a military march song.
The Hohenfriedberger marsch is said to have been composed by King Frederick II himself.

Ah. I just listened the Hohenfriedberger marsch.
Sounds good.

Nothing better than these when I play Civ 3 and send the panzers and infantry on a "liberation mission" in to my neighbor's territory.
