Better when
remixed, but still a good
techno/
metal/
industrial band. They did a
CD of
Metallica covers, which wasn't as good as their usual stuff. They are actually
international, but the lead is from
Germany, and several of their
songs attack
fascism,
racism, and
Neo-Nazism. I've found them to have both a
conscience and a
beat, a rare combination. Plus, they still rock hard when stuck playing in a
venue that's normally
country-western, has only 20 or 30 people in the
audience, and is in the middle of
Fayetteville, AR... (They'll never come back, but they were
nifty nonetheless.) ... Worth a check if you like Metallica,
Stabbing Westward,
Nine Inch Nails,
KMFDM, and so on.
Die Krupps is not, as my friend once suggested, some sort of
death threat against a
gourmet coffee maker. ;p
