You haven't heard of Die Krupps? (Heavy Maaaan...)

Posted about 1 year ago
  • Artist:
  • Album:
    Stahlwerksinfonie
  • Track:
    Wahre Arbeit Wahrer Lohn
Critics worldwide hail them alongside KRAFTWERK and EINSTURZENDE NEUBAUTEN as pioneers of Electronic and Industrial music, bands like FRONT 242 and NITZER EBB called them their inspiration, and their musical ideas found their way into the sound of a wide spectrum of music, from DEPECHE MODE to the innovative pioneers of Detroit Techno. Over 25 years and many internationally successful albums, DIE KRUPPS have developed an unmistakable signature sound;..After monumental and industrial beginnings with the album ´Stahlwerksinfonie´, the foundation for Electronic Body Music was laid by the single ´Wahre Arbeit Wahrer Lohn´ (both Album and Single Of The Week in the British NME), and the following albums ´Volle Kraft Voraus´ and ´Entering The Arena´, which created international interest in the bands´ characteristic synthesis of hard electronics and highly danceable beats. European wide releases secured the band a large following, that was only meant to increase in the ´90s. .http://www.myspace.com/diekrupps ..Filling in the gaps.

  4. Bartleby says Die Krupps und Thyssen??? Weren't those two very affluent and influential family of German industrialists? I wonder what MOG will attach to their bios. Girlfriends listen to their own music? I thought I was implicitly agreed in a relationship that only the male gets to play the cool stuff on the hi-fi. Nice industrialist sounds.

  9. chandlersford says That second video is hilarious! I've played some toilet venues myself but that is really funny - unless it really is a live show from some toilet gig? Anyone for Faust?
