Die Krupps

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Although I appreciate your intelligent analyses, ladies, I still have to say that I had considering to delete my last post - just because it's a thread dedicated to a wonderful, powerful band called DIE KRUPPS :notworthy: (and all the other things deserve a different topic... maybe). My fault (to f*** up this thread), sorry.

well, some of you (those who have been at Die Krupps 25th anniversary tour gigs in 2005) probably know that Engler uses a big metal tube, beating it with metal sticks. in Rakvere (at Green Christmas festival) one guy got injured when Engler had thrown those sticks into the audience. a concussion of the brain :(
well, he got home after visiting a hospital but a week later had problems with memory.
life is bloody unfair - Jürgen Engler is probably one of the most friendly and kind rock / pop musicians on Earth. and a man who lives very healthy life - no smoking, no alcohol, no drugs. never used any of them - as he said.
well... here is another, much funnier story. after the gig (the next day) when the local mayor made an excursion for the band - they climbed in ruins of the ancient fortress, made a blast with an old cannon etc - there was one more ritual - to drink a local drink (including strong acohol) and other members of the band were very surprised, seeing Engler drinking alcohol for the first time through years (or decades - depending how many years some of them have been a member of Die Krupps) :D

No, getting *someone* :innocent: :wink: who, as you know, is usually not the heaviest of drinkers, to partake of the old alky-hol.

Two vodie's and Coke's & Two Baily's by the time I left, who knows, by the time of the next Heartland p*ss up, you might be able to hold some real drink :innocent: :twisted: :kiss:

Two more Baileys were consumed before they threw us out, then a vodka and orange at the hotel bar. And still the coke-fuelled jaikies that came up to hassle us (and compare me to Marylin bloody Monroe :urff: ) at closing time didn't look in the least bit attractive.

Who else loves Die Krupps? Which period do you prefer: 80s EBM or industrial with heavy guitars or their Nebauten-ish debut album?

Oh, he tries! :lol:

Well you know I loves them.

No-one does Neubauten better than Neubauten, so I'd say late 80's/early 90's. Later they went to sounding a little *whisper* nu-metal, to me anyway. Rings of Steel is a cracking album tho' :notworthy: .
