Einsturzende Neubauten Tickets

It's challenging to find a name in the music world more synonymous with experimentation and innovation than the band Einstürzende Neubauten. Since its inception forty-four years ago in West Berlin, the group has become famous not only for using handmade instruments from scrap metal and everyday objects but also for tireless and constantly new musical experiments and exploration of uncharted sound territories. It has influenced numerous other bands and artistic genres, ranging from dance theater to visual arts and film.

Einstürzende Neubauten came into existence on April 1, 1980, quite accidentally. Blixa Bargeld was asked if he wanted to play at the Moon club in Berlin, and according to his words, he "simply called a few friends." Those who had time that evening became founding members of the band. Since their debut album "Kollaps" in 1981, the band has altered the parameters of mainstream and subculture to let the inaudible - and perhaps the unheard so far - be heard. This experimental terrain exploration now enters a new phase - the "ramp" phase, in which the band returns to its roots while redefining itself. They create their own genre called apm - alien pop music. 

The album "Rampen - apm: alien pop music," in which the band will showcase its most unpredictable and unconventional sides, is based on the so-called "ramps" played live during the tour for the album "Alles in Allem." "Ramp" in the band's internal language means an improvised live composition that Einstürzende Neubauten always includes in their concert programs. They then use these "ramps" as ideas or inspiration for a new album.

"Rampen - apm: alien pop music is pop music for parallel universes and interworlds - for hyper spaces and interzones. It is microcosmic and intergalactic simultaneously. It is an everyday claim beyond all physical laws, with which Einstürzende Neubauten enter the stylistic territory of no one between past and future. On one hand, there is a return to roots, and on the other hand, it emerges from massive eruptions of noise meeting cryptic, often fragmented lyrics, creating a new artistic form: popular music for strangers and outcasts. Anti-pop has become extraterrestrial pop," states the band.

Strange. Woven like a cocoon. Unheard. Sonus inauditus. Not coincidentally, the clean graphic design of the album cover resembles the iconic cover of the White Album by The Beatles. "It stems from the idea that Einstürzende Neubauten are as famous in another solar system as The Beatles are in our world," says Blixa Bargeld, emphasizing that it's about balancing between avant-garde and linguistic audacity, provocation, and pop-cultural discontinuity. This approach also directly defines the central theme that runs as a common thread through all the songs: change, utopian thought games, and transience.
