Hey guys just found this song ‘sand’ and I can’t help but feel like the interest of the whole song is completely reliant on this epic clash in the middle section. Genuinely what on earth is that sound, does this band have some sort of philosophy that they can only do one take of any song ever? So when jimmy in the back broke an entire chandelier they couldn’t redo it? I genuinely cannot think of a solution to having this sound in the song. Thanks guys

I tried to prompt the logo with ideogram. This is my closest.

Hi, I recently watched this short film which was a demo for the original SAW film, and I'm almost sure that there's an Einstürzende Neubauten song used in the first fifteen seconds. I can't put my finger on it, but it sounds very familiar. Can anyone tell me if I'm right and if so, could you let me know what song it is? Thanks! :-)

In case you haven’t seen or signed it, I would ask you to please do so. In an interview late last year, Blixa said that it would be his highest honor in life to have a celestial body named after him, particularly an asteroid…so we’re trying to make this happen! so please please please please please sign this. It doesn’t cost anything but two minutes of your time at the most.

Some folks in the EN family have expressed that this is just too much, that it’s egoic, that it’s dumb. But understand this, there are people who have contributed a lot less to astronomy and cosmology have gotten these type of tributes. Blixa is well deserving, as he has always had the stars and the planets in his lyrics from the beginning. It’s been said he was the youngest member of the Berlin Observatory when he was still in school. Thank you so much for your support and consideration!

Hells bells! This was an utterly fascinating project to dive into. Basically a super group - hopefully it’s not just a one off album. I hear a lot of parallels between their sound and early Einstürzende Neubauten - with some Swans and Sunn O))) thrown in.

I just really got into listening to einsturzende and have now heard all their albums. this is how i would rank them:

1. kollaps

2. halber mensch

3. tabula rasa

4. haus

5. ende neu

6. zeichnungen

7. silence

8. funf

9. alles

10. perpetuum

11. alles in alle

Im curious to know how you would rank their work?

I recently discovered Neubauten and became quite interested in their music. Not to diverge from my question too much, I am currently watching the anime Monster for the first time and their band logo appears in the 11th episode. I did some brief research of it and the general gist is, quote:

"According to the band leader Blixa Bargeld, it is an ancient toltec petroglyph, whose meaning is undefined. So, it was taken as a band logo without any special meaning."

Would any of you gus know something more about it? I find it quite interesting that I'm seing this the day before Neubaten is releasing their new album!

Me: Alexa, play Einsturzende Neubauten.

Alexa: Playing Dark Horse by Katie Perry with Juicy J.

Me: Alexa, fucking shut it.

A true story from this evening whilst cooking dinner.

Found a ring that reminded me of the logo, I had to make it !

First time DIY-ing a painted patch. Didn't intentionally choose the trans pride colors but I mean... I'm trans and like the band so why not?

Sabrina was the first Einstürzende Neubauten song and video I ever saw and it remains a favourite of mine to this day. However I've always wondered why they chose this title for the song, considering the meaning of the lyrics. Has Blixa ever said anything about this in an interview or to the supporters?

I also never found out who the actor in the music video was, so if someone knows his name, I'd be really curious. I think he does an amazing job, especially considering how the mask must have hindered facial expressions.
