“Destruction was, for us, never destruction in the sense of an act of violence. It was always about making room.” – Blixa Bargeld

Pre-screening DJ in Lo-Res from 7-9

An essential text for anyone with a love for the avant-garde. The explosive soundscapes of industrial music titans Einstürzende Neubauten first shook Berlin, then the whole world to its core in the Eighties. In LIEBESLIEDER, co-directors Klaus Maeck and Johanna Schenkel wield a fractured feast of killer Neubauten performances from Euro television: ones that highlight the group’s cinematic presence, wild handmade instruments and totally unique style. If you’re at all curious about industrial or noise music in general, this sweaty documentary is unmissable. If you’re already a Neubauten fan, this humanizing portrait of their first decade will give you a fresh take on the band.
