There are multiple artists with this name: 1) A project of Australian Tim Yatras (Austere, Grey Waters, ex-Nazxul, etc) that incorporates elements of depressive black metal, rock and electronic music. Germ was conceived in early 2006, and shortly afterward the "Raving Mad With Sadness" song appeared online. Since then Germ has remained out of the public eye, but in the Spring of 2009 he entered SLS Studios to record his debut album. However, the record was not completed until 2011. Germ then followed this up with 2014's Grief, which shied away from the electronic elements of his previous work and brought more focus onto the guitars. Another short album - Loss - appeared later the same year, bringing back some electronic elements in a dreamy mixing pot of styles from his previous works. Finally his latest album titled Escape appeared in 2016, again building on what he has done before, refining his sound further and cementing himself as one of the essential artists in the rising "Blackgaze" movement, influencing newer Blackgaze bands such as Ghost Bath in the process. 2) GERM (born 19 June, 1991) is an American rapper based out of Atlanta, Georgia, who grew up in both Florida and Georgia. He is a former Buffet Boy and is currently in Shameless Money Gang and G59. Germ started rapping in 2014 after him and Fat Nick got back to Miami from Atlanta and met up with Pouya, when Nick suggested Germ should do a verse on him and Pouya's song, and that is when Germ's first verse was recorded, as well as his first music video, which was the track "Drop em Off" with Pouya & Fat Nick. This day is also when he became a member of the Buffet Boys. 3) Germ is the experimental techno/idm project of Tim Wright. Previous releases were found on the sought after GPR (General Production Recordings) record label in the early to mid nineties. Also records as Moondog, Pin, Speed Baby, Tube Jerk. 4) Czech postgrunge band from Opava. 5) or Da Germ is a German Underground HipHop Artist from Frankfurt. Born February 15, 1969, of Black American, German and Apache decent, Da Germ or G.E.R.M. (Genetically Engineered Reborn Mastermind) is an MC from Frankfurt/Main, Germany, who rhymes in both English and German. Childhood: Germ grew up in Frankfurt, the son of a German mother and an American GI. He lost his father and brother in a car accident when he was a child. As an Afro-German, he experienced discrimination. His role models included Sugarhill Gang, MC Shan, Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer, LL Cool J, and the poet Robert Gernhardt , whom he knew personally from his time in Frankfurt. At 18, Germ performed on stage as a rapper for the first time but was booed, prompting him to spontaneously diss the audience. His career: After a stay in the USA in 1988, the Hessian, under the name Zyon (initially also Zion), worked with Sven Väth on his project "Mosaic." Later, his first hip-hop record was released under the name Al Rakhun on the label Dope On Plastic . In 1991, under the name Waldvogel , he contributed to the production of the first single by folk musician Florian Silbereisen . That same year, he returned to the USA, where he also acquired his stage name. During his training as a sound engineer, the young man from Germany was known simply as "Germ." Germ is also an acronym for Genetically Created Reincarnated Master Brain . From 1993 to 1996, Germ was back in Frankfurt and released the EP "Spirit of Attitude" in 1993 and the debut album "Day of Resurraction" in 1994. In 1996, Germ went to New York again and, with More & More on the American label Shadow , was able to release his music in the USA for the first time. Further attempts to establish himself in the USA failed, however, so he returned to Germany in 2001 and settled in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Since then, he has regularly faced the (quote) "challenges of less talented opponents" in battle rap . His musical development led to collaborations with the Wu-Tang Clan and the Brothers Keepers project . In addition, the former student teacher (German and History) was involved in mentoring young talent: as Jah Frankfurter , he introduced the two Neukölln "U12" MCs 5 Cent and Big FM on his 2005 album Skillz'n'Skullz , released on the newly founded dubcore label. In the fall of 2005, as Saint Germain , he toured Parisian clubs with freestyler Kayzer MC . During the tour, he recited, among other things… Dressed in a devil costume, he recited texts by Jean Genet and Charles Baudelaire , while Kayzer MC, dressed in priestly robes, dissed him in Latin . This collaboration is documented on the album *Les Miserablez *. During the 2009 German federal election campaign, he attracted attention with a release in support of the SPD's chancellor candidate, Frank-Walter Steinmeier. 6) Alternative, grunge, shoegaze band from Birmingham England. http://wearegerm.bandcamp.com
