A new double alum is out next month from Einstürzende Neubauten. Titled Rampen (apm: alien pop music), it will release on April 5.
Now in year 44, the band formed in 1980 and has pushed the boundaries of genre for pieces of five decades.
"Rampen (apm: alien pop music) is pop music for parallel universes and in-between worlds ‒ for hyperspaces and interzones. It is microcosmic and intergalactic at the same time. It's a demi-sophisticated claim outside of all physical laws, with which Einstürzende Neubauten enters a stylistic no man's land between the past and future. There's a return to the roots on one side, while a new art form emerges on the other from powerful eruptions of noise encountering cryptic, often fragmentary lyrics: popular music for aliens and outcasts. Anti-pop has become alien pop," pre-release press says.
“It's based on the idea that the Einstürzende Neubauten is just as famous in another solar system as The Beatles are in our world,” Blixa Bargeld proclaims.
