Einstürzende Neubauten - “Alien Pop Music 2024”
EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN, founded in West Berlin, caused a furore in the early 1980s.

IAMX breathes new spiritual life into his hyper-emotional electronic project with the new album ‘Fault Lines²’. It is the successor to the aggressive, cultish machinations heard on the 2023 released album ‘Fault Lines¹’. This sequel is half mutant, half prom queen sister with pulsating bass monsters like ‘Neurosymphony’ and ‘Infinite Fear Jets’ transitioning ethereally into tracks like ‘The Ocean’, where the magnificent vocal talents of Hafdis Huld in the Icelandic intro and outro can be heard. This is followed by tracks like the intricate harmonies of ‘Deathless Wilds’, with its grim, crunching 6/8 beats grabbing attention, while longtime collaborator Janine Gezang urges the listener in Punk Rock style to accept whatever may come.- Details
