What is Einsturzende Neubauten?
1.
Einsturzende Neubauten ("Imploding/Collapsing New Buildings") formed in Berlin, Germany on April 1, 1980, as part of the 'Die Geniale Dillentanten', which was formed to break down all musical conventions.
Many of the members have included Blixa Bargeld. N.U. Unruh, F.M. Einheit, Alexander Van Borsig, Mark Chung, and Rudi Moser, just to name a few (their band line-up is practically a revolving-door complex in some ways)
They are true pioneers of Industrial, generally using and playing real instruments rather than recording them digitally.
