Artist: DIE KRUPPS
Album: I RE-RELEASE (2CD DIGI)

Release date: 1992/ 2008
Media type: CD

Die Krupps started the new decade with "I" an album that inspired many (just compare "Dawning of Doom" with Rammsteinґs "Das Tier") and paved the way for a new sound. "Metal Machine Music" already hinted at the potential of the clash of sequenced electronics and soaring guitars which was to dominate industrial clubs for the next years. Their cover version of Metallicas "One" provided a reference point - a full-blown electronic tribute to that kind of monster was to follow soon.

"Machineries of Joy", the Die Kruppsґ initiated joint venture with Nitzer Ebb - a remake of their 80s classic "Wahre Arbeit Wahrer Lohn" - did not only hit the (Billboard) charts - but also the right nerves. Because it re-activated Die Krupps who had provided some of the most pioneering electronic music works in the 80s.
