H-Blockx musician: There was a feeling of Doberman puppies among us.

For decades, the band H-Blockx has operated within the music industry. However, it wasn't until the 1990s that they had to display their skills with limited funds and supposed common sense comparable to Doberman puppies, as their vocalist claimed.

The Munster-based crossover rock group, H-Blockx, experienced great success with their debut album "Time to Move," achieving platinum status. However, at the time, they had minimal funds for its production. As bandleader Henning Wehland recently shared in a statement, they only had "10,000 DM and the common sense of five young Dobermann dogs."

In 1994, this album was released and garnered significant interest with over 500,000 copies sold worldwide. To commemorate this milestone, H-Blockx will issue a vinyl reissue next Friday, September 27th, featuring the album in both red and black. Talking about their groundbreaking music, Wehland remarked, "We never really thought about it, but this album shattered expectations and blazed new trails." Lastly, they're scheduled to perform at the music festivals "Rock am Ring" and "Rock im Park" this weekend.
