Eisbrecher

Following in wake of KMFDM's more electronic forays rather than Rammstein's rougher and more popularized sound, fellow German band Eisbrecher has been quietly producing solid albums for the past five years. While less political and less angry than the aforementioned, Eisbrecher is far from a "happy" band. Their music mixes industrial, metal and dance aspects in varying ratios with dark-aspected lyrics...in German, of course.



Eisbrecher recently released their third album Sünde. Unfortunately, unlike their two previous albums, it was not picked up for US distribution. All of their albums are available in CD form through Amazon.com, though Sünde bears the price of an import. It and their second album, Antikörper, are available as MP3 downloads.

Update: 1/12/09 - IsoTank Music announced that Sünde would be released on CD in the US on March 10th.
