Mess
A mess (also called a messdeck aboard ships) is an area where military personnel socialize, eat, and (in some cases) live. In some societies this military usage has extended to other disciplined services eateries such as civilian fire fighting and police forces. The root of mess is the Old French mes, "portion of food" (cf. modern French mets), drawn from the Latin verb mittere, meaning "to send" and "to put" (cf. modern French mettre), the original sense being "a course of a meal put on the table"; cfr. also the modern Italian portata with the same meaning, past participle of portare, to bring. This sense of mess, which appeared in English in the 13th century, was often used for cooked or liquid dishes in particular, as in the "mess of pottage" (porridge or soup). By the 15th century, a group of people who ate together were also called a mess, and it is this sense that persists in the "mess halls" of the modern military.

Basic regulations regarding the establishment and administration of messes is contained in the Queen's Regulations and Orders and the Canadian Forces Administrative Orders.

Mess (Liars album)
Mess is the seventh studio album by music trio Liars, released on Mute Records on 24/25 March 2014. In a press release, singer Angus Andrew said the recording process had been "almost the exact opposite" of creating their last album WIXIW and that "instead of being doubtful, work on the new album has been immediate, fun, instinctual and confident". The record was largely recorded at the band's own No Gold Studios in Los Angeles.
The first single from the album, Mess On A Mission, was released on 17 March, backed with remixes from Silent Servant, SFV Acid, Black Bananas (Jennifer Herrema) and Nest Of Teens. Regarding the single, a Mute press release quotes the band: "Mess On A Mission acknowledges some of the modern day issues of uncertainty, of being overwhelmed with possibilities, too many choices and it vocalises them. It's cathartic and a more positive spin on something our music has always dealt with: anxiety."
Track listing
All songs written and composed by Aaron Hemphill and Angus Andrew.
Junge
Junge (lit. "boy") is a song by Die Ärzte. It is the sixth track and the first single from their 2007 album Jazz ist anders. It debuted on the radio on 31 August 2007.
The song is about teenagers experiencing criticism and rejection and being held responsible for everything.
A Chinese language version of "Junge" was released on the compilation Poptastic Conversation China on August 1, 2008.
The video
The video for the single is very graphic and depicts various violent attacks by zombies to town members, while the band Die Ärzte looks on helplessly from the top of a broadcast van and sings about teenagers ruining their lives. The band use a variety of makeshift weapons, such as a guitar, binoculars and a beer can, before a crossbow is produced from out of nowhere in a section that resembles a scene from the 2004 British film Shaun of the Dead. The zombies are finally overwhelming and guitarist Farin Urlaub gets eaten at the end. It was directed by Norbert Heitker.
The opening scene, where a bleeding zombie child is walking down the street, is a parody of the opening scene of the film Arlington Road.
