Recoil & Nitzer Ebb, my favourite industrial and industrial fusion bands are to play Barcelona’s Sala Apolo this Friday, March 12, 2010!
I guess even if you’re not a fan of these bands, but know Depeche Mode, well Alan Wilder of Depeche Mode is RECOIL!
For me, my favourite album was released back in 1997 called, “Unsound Methods“. His Stalker EP from the album gets played along with my classic electronica from Orbital. On the Mute site Wilder described this album as, “This LP is significantly different to anything I’ve done before, including previous Recoil releases,” says Wilder. “Ultimately, everything I do has to have substance and atmosphere, to be able to send a shiver up my spine. Otherwise I’m just not interested.” Well, I can’t describe it better myself!
Although Depeche Mode have not got back the edge they had, at least for me, during the Ultra and Songs of Love and Devotion LPs/tours, Recoil is darker, edgier and works with collaborating artists. Additionally, there’s a huge cross over in sound and influence from other genres! I’ll probably be going just to see this band.
I love Nitzer Ebb, but not as much. I preferred their earlier stuff. If you lovet the DM sound, you’ll love both of these bands. Tickets are 25 EUR – 28 on the door!
