Einstürzende Neubauten - Strategies Against Architecture II

wittyinvention

Review by Peter Okhimamhe

Einstürzende Neubauten's second installment of their Strategies Against Architecture series, Strategies Against Architecture II, presents a collection of industrial sounds and experimental noise that showcases the band's unique approach to music-making.

The album features a range of tracks that vary in style, from the aggressive and abrasive "Armenia" to the more atmospheric and introspective "Zweites Schaf." The use of unconventional instruments such as metal pipes, power tools, and scrap metal create a distinct and raw sound that is characteristic of the band's style.

The album also includes previously unreleased tracks, such as "Sehnsucht" and "Der Tod Ist Ein Dandy," which add to the overall diversity of the collection. The band's use of German lyrics and spoken word samples adds to the album's experimental nature and creates a sense of unease and tension throughout.

Experimental German group, formed in West Berlin in 1980. The band is notable for predominantly using custom built instruments constructed out of scrap metal and power tools. Their name in English literally means "Collapsing New Buildings," where "New Buildings" describes a type of architecture common in post-WWII Germany (large concrete box-style buildings) and "Collapsing" is an adjective in this context, not a verb.
