German band Wir sind Helden(English translation: "We are heroes") is a well known rock act in Germany. In 2003, they were the first band to kick off a still ongoing trend for uptempo rock songs sung in German. Examples of other successful bands following that trend are Juliand Silbermond. This phenomenon (call it emancipation, if you wish) of German bands to actually sing in German is often referred to as the rebirth of the "NDW", the "Neue deutsche Welle" ("New German Wave") that originally brought up artists like Nena, years ago. The four members of the band are Judith Holofernes, Jean-Michel Tourette, Mark Tavassol and Pola Roy.
