Nena



She hasn't worn too badly either, being German must be good for you!

Klaus Nomi anybody?

 

[Chromatic]

Good point, he's not looking too good these days.

The only German stuff I've got is by Die Krupps, I had no idea what I was buying, it just looked a bit punky. Its basically some industrial electronic and hitting metal things, anvils probably, with other metal things.

I've got Stahlwerksynfonie too.

Not really Krautrock as I know it in my opinion though.

Still going strong. They've been touring this year, as last, did a new 'Stahlwerkrequiem' with Mani from Guru Guru and the guys from Faust.

Fortunately one of the records got really badly damaged and I had to throw it out.
