Feeling B was a German punk rock band. Founded in Berlin in 1983, they started out firmly grounded in the underground punk scene. Over time, Feeling B's popularity grew greatly, and climaxed around the end of the German Democratic Republic.
Frontman Aljoscha Rompe, a Swiss living in East Berlin, supplied the vocals to the band's songs. His accompanying keyboardist and guitarist have since found fame as keyboardist Christian "Flake" Lorenz and rhythm-guitarist Paul Landers of Rammstein.
Rammstein's singer, Till Lindemann, also participated once with Feeling B for the song "Lied von der unruhevollen Jugend", for which he is credited on the album Hea Hoa Hoa Hea Hea Hoa. Rammstein twice played this song live in St. Petersburg and Moscow in 2001, during their 'Mutter' tour.
The group disbanded mid 1990s. Bassist Christoph Zimmermann died in a plane crash in 1999. On special occasions, the band members would get together for individual concerts at punk festivals, until Rompe died in November 2000 of an asthma attack at 53 years old.
Eventually, Flake rediscovered tapes of old and partial unreleased recordings. This unreleased material and remixes of some already known songs were released as Grün & Blau in 2007.
