Chuck Eddy on Scooter:

Scooter Über Alles

The Slade comparison, it turns out, comes not only from their big-everywhere-but-the-U.S. status (see also Boney M, or soccer), but apparently also from the fact that their front-MC, a rectangular-headed drill sergeant named H.P. Baxxter given to doing onstage aerobics in outer space track suits, Shouts! All! Their! Lyrics! Like! This! That way, Slade-fan-like working class white kids ("chavs," according to certain Scooter dissenters writing youtube comments) can heroically punch the sky.
