Old Gods: Hacke, Bargeld, Unruh.
As we often like to do when a new album by a landmark legacy band is released, we’re setting this week’s podcast aside for the discussion of Rampen – APM: Alien Pop Music, the brand new LP by industrial royalty Einstürzende Neubauten. We’re making some attempts to situate the record in relation to the rest of the latter-era Neubauten catalog, but also spinning off into discussion of Blixa Bargeld’s poetics, the exactitude of the band’s not-so-noisy percussion, and the experience of listening to a new record by a band as storied as Neubauten. As always, you can rate and subscribe on iTunes, Google Podcasts, download directly, or listen through the widget down below.
Einstürzende Neubauten is that love that endures. I too have the album and I was delighted to hear that Pestalozzi was Blixa’s Amazon list. Great episode.
