Rasta Knast
Rasta Knast is a German punk band founded in the city of Celle, Germany in 1997. The band name is a playful reference to the Swedish punk band Asta Kask, known as a foundational band of Swedish punk rock, and the musical genre trallpunk. Rasta Knast's music is in the musical style of trallpunk, but generally uses German-language lyrics rather than Swedish-language lyrics. They have covered songs from Swedish punk bands Asta Kask, Radioaktiva Räker, and the Troublemakers.
Rasta Knast has released four studio albums, the last two of which are on the German punk label Plastic Bomb, associated with Plastic Bomb Fanzine (established 1993). They have sold more than 30,000 copies of their albums. Rasta Knast have toured nationally in Germany as well as Sweden, Norway, Brasil, Japan, England, Ireland, Russia, and Spain. They have contributed to several long-running, and well-known series of German punk rock compilations, including Weird System's Punk Rock BRD and Höhnie Records' Sicher gibt es bessere Zeiten series of compilation albums.
