Nitzer Ebb - Live At Technoclub 1989 

Amazing someone had the brains to document this. Thanks a million!

I'm still so glad I was able to be here for this concert I almost couldn't get off of duty while stationed in Germany early enough to make it.. I had just bought my first few synthesizers and was starting to get involved in industrial music what a great time to be involved in industrial music and in Germany at the same time

Best industrial band ever, much better than NIN in my opinion

I am 67 yo and still listen to this band. They may be a little older like me but they still KICK ASS!!! This film is a hidden gem!! Thank you for uploading it!😀😀❤❤👍👍👍

I worked backstage security at the nitzer ebb Depeche mode concert in either 1988 or 1989 in Dallas, what a fricken killer concert !!!

THIS IS THE BEST AND MOST HARDKICKING EBM KONSERT EVER BEEN MADE! Nitzer at their very best.

This is Nitzer Ebb I miss and love. I miss his old way of singing with the shouting. Their first three albums❤️

Cool, Nitzer Ebb was formed after a year (1982) that Front 242 was formed in 1981. Front 242 are the godfathers of EBM. And after all those years, both bands still exist

this is ultimate! and great sound quality considering its from 89...good shit. i wish crowds were like that now

Saw them back then with my x girlfriend She screamed for him More than she ever did 2 me LOL!!

This is great piece of history. Thanks. I jam to this regularly.

NINE INCH NAILS took a lot of their sounds from Nitzer Ebb.

I remember that there was a huge bass speaker system tube amp setup underneath the stage that just ripped your guts apart it was amazing

Their first 3 albums are sheer genius! I saw them on their Showtime club tour. Also when they opened for Depeche Mode on the Violator Tour.

A legendary live recording from the legendary Technoclub at Dorian Gray, Frankfurt. Miss you Dorian.

I WAS THERE !!! So geil das hier zu finden 👍 Thanks for uploading !

playing Blood Money twice? Fucking genius

Damn good. Great to stumble on these old posts. Great jam. Great time to work in this scene. Great time to be alive! :) Thanks!!!

The vocals are as energetic and raw as they are perfectly tight and controlled, wow!

Best live EBM footage ever!!

i was there... fuck i am old.. but still joining the chant

I saw them in Paris during this tour. I remember the slap I received with the power of sound. Crazy energy group with Front 242.

Mit Nitzer Ebb bin ich aufgewachsen...und die Energie fließt noch heute durch meinen Körper. Geiler geht es kaum noch. Habe sie als Vorgruppe von Depeche Mode gesehen (muss Ende der 80´er gewesen sein). Das war fast besser als DM selbst.

Thank god, someone recorded this! It is so 80ies! And… remember! This young lads created some real evergreens! And… noticed? The hair style, en vogue again.

Amazing! I saw them in Oslo on February 6th. 1989 on this tour! Such great memories!!! :D

fuck this is good.

I remember being around 16-17 years old and I bought Nitzer Ebb “Belief” white album it changed me forever!! It was deep, dark and haunting!! I still listen to that album more than any other album from them! TWA was my all time instrumental song ever!! Very deep! Thanks for sharing this and hearing them playing my favorite song in the beginning intro!

This is perfect EBM, if they are to be labeled at all… How about, just, Perfect. Yes, they make perfect music.

OMFG!!!!!!!! it's 2022 and in 1989 i was only 14. i was barely getting into DM and had no idea NE even existed. Then DM rolls into town with the world violation tour and BOOM!!!! NE comes on stage and blows me away. DM who??? Gonna go see them this weekend with ministry and NIN in Ohio and my old ass is gonna go crazy! ;)

even at this quality this might be the best version of Shame they ever did

Boys at one, girls at peace Boys at one, girls at peace Boys at one, girls at peace Boys at one, girls at peace

Thank God for you doing this. Wow. My shit right here. And Consolidated.... Kraftwerk led the way.

fucking perfect set.

I love Drive so much! My neighbour wants to move when i play this!

found out about this band cause they opened for NIN at the Eden Project in Cornwall. long drive there so missed them. later found out they performed without Douglas McCarthy (main vocalist) that night, and I didn't know them that well at the time anyways so didn't care. but since then I've been listening to them a bunch. this shit is so cool and it hits hard. more people gotta hear it.

I own, according to websites with the most "Knowledge", every single one of their albums, records, CD's, recorded videos, shirts, and even an autopraphed Skin... From NITZER EBB, Hollywood, few years ago... YEAH!!!

I was born almost a decade after this show even happened and I’m so immeasurably thankful someone filmed it. The amount of times I’ve come back to this video over the past ten or so years has been ridiculous; an underrated gem of bootlegs. Such a perfect set from a band in their prime and a great crowd too. Fucking killer

another great show is MINISTRY , in case you didnt feel like showing up, live at Merriville!

like omg is this real music?

Oh! I was young once. Thanks!

Love it! Great live! Amazing synths.

Wir waren auf diesem Konzert in Frankfurt Technoclub im Dorian Gray

Shit, I just realized that I am in the first rand. After 23 years I see myself in this video in Paris ... How does it feel funny. If I told myself that one day I would see in this concert .... wwwwaaaaahhhhhhh

The best hour, four minutes and fifty six seconds in my life happened right here. 29.03.24

DUDE!! idk why I've never looked for NE live uploads on RU-vid, considering I'm 51 and had begun listening to NE in high school, my 1st introduction was of course "That Total Age" and I was hooked on the blistering synths and macho basslines paired with Douglas over the top vocal style replete with his signature grunts and other noises.. So THANKS BIG to the channel, I subscribed to you.. you can really tell how energized the crowd was when "Violent Playground" started.. I'm also kicking myself for never having seen NE in concert and also never saw Depeche Mode.. Fuck I was class of 1990, I should have been at every cool band's concerts!!! There was great entertainment in the late 80s early 90s here in Florida, the old Power Station/The Asylum in Melbourne, Florida (not Australia) had so many great bands of that era grace the stage there.. also in Palm Bay at The Village Underground and Orlando's The Edge, as well as JJ Whispers/Six Feet Under/ Cyberzone.. I did manage to see all of these groups in that time: Skinny Puppy, Frontline Assembly, Pigface, The Cramps, The Jesus And Mary Chain, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, ChemLab, Nine Inch Nails, Cosmic Baby, CCCP, Cut Rate Box, Book Of Love, Gene Loves Jezebel, Lords Of Acid, A Split-Second, MC 900 Ft. Jesus, Severed Heads, Legendary Pinkdots, KMFDM, and several others. Never got to see Front 242.. Thanks again for this blast from the past!

Love this! Best EBM-band ever!

Saw them in April of the following year in Frankfurt, Germany @ a venue called Volksbildungsheim. A lot of great people of the time in the Frankfurt EBM scene were there as well. These were amazing times.

Oh - genial! Danke!! Lift up your HEARTS!

French music producers never fail to dazzle the listener.. Plaisance is a gem of the early beginnings of the retrowave genre.. Snazzy, upscale hardware synthesizers, used the way they were meant to be showcased.. But popular mainstream hip hop and rap utilize synthesizers simply as a gimmick and the ultimate goal being to make money by cashing in on the commercial music scene.. no thank you!! Synthwave/retrowave/chillwave and all related genres are WHY synthesizers were invented .... that's pure love!! I hate 99.9% of rap and hip hop...especially since 2000.. but 1995-1999 was the best time for hip hop and R&B.. In America, if you noticed or not.. and this is only for people who Generation X (1965-1977) and some Generation Y may remember the shift on FM radio in 1995... so anyone born 1977-1990 is Generation Y years i think... I'd say 1995's album "Crazy Sexy Cool" by TLC (produced by Babyface) was the firing shot... So anyone who doesn't remember or wasn't born or aware of music yet, from 1994 and before that to say... mid 1970s.. synthesizers were on a roll pushing into the great decade of the 1980s.. If you listened to Rock N Roll stations, it was British synth pop (early synthwave!) was on everyday... we had Wham!, ABC, Thompson Twins, Hall & Oates, A Flock Of Seagulls, Depeche Mode, etc!!

Great Show! ..wish I was there. Thanks for uploading this |m|

El mejor ebm de la historia junto con front 242

Was not sure if this was a real band or music to work out to and lose weight.

Interesting to see 'Getting Closer' played in the belief tour - I thought that wasn't played live until after the Showtime release

Im freeking blown away by this amazing performance.. its flawless. Vocals are just raaawwwwww

Pure Energy in the good days

Thank you so much for this upload, sir! Eye candy footage for old school rivetheads!

during Warsaw Ghetto they should of just let that guy rock out, he wasn't hurting anyone just boosting morale

I was hoping to see them live at m'era Luna this year, I hate the fact that it got cancelled.

are there any groups that still play music like this? i was born 1 year after this show... born too fucking late, this is what music should sound like

ID LOVE TO HEAR THEM IN THE ORIGINAL FORM ! IT REALLY SPEAKS VOLUMES , OR IT SPEAKS FOR US OLEDER LADS , THAT LIVED THROUGH THIS , a GOOD BAND !

can we get time stamps ? lol best concert ive seen of them tho vocals are superb

Saw this tour in Copenhagen. Thanks for the upload

Just drop me back in 1989 for this gig and bring me back afterwards (maybe:)

This was posted 13 yr ago and just came across my feed today. How did YT know I needed this. Man this brings me wayyy back

pure, raw energy

my old band Pure Bunk had the pleasure of being their support act in Australia around 2006 I think....like a dream come true . Bon and Douglas were just great guys and I hope Douglas recovers to be well enough to delight us more on stage into the future .

I just love that 80's sound :) so sweet

I love NE, but make no mistake, they borrowed (I'm being nice) their entire look, style and sound from D.A.F. (Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft)

Classic Nitzer Ebb!!!
