Newsbites for April 5th: Einstürzende Neubauten, Diary Of Dreams, Lacrimosa
Documentary about Einstürzende Neubauten planned
The Berlin-based film maker Uli Schueppel is planning a documentary about Einstürzende Neubauten’s first concert which took place on December 21st, 1989 in what was then East Berlin. This should be really interesting to see when it’s completed, but for now Uli is in search of anyone who attended that concert and who can provide some additional information for his documentary. Anyone who can help should contact him at info@schueppel-films.de.
Diary Of Dreams has a clothing collection
I don’t know how old this news is, but it caught me by surprise as I was browsing Infrarot.de. Apparently Diary Of Dreams has launched a clothing line in association with the gothic clothing company Aderlass. They have several different styles of jackets, trench coats, pants and skirts available. You can see them all on Infrarot.de here, but I have to warn you, they are pretty expensive. The prices range from €89.90 to €239.90.
Lacrimosa begins work on new album
Lacrimosa, the Swiss gothic metal band headed up by Tilo Wolff, has begun working on their next album. This will be the band’s 10th studio album since they formed in 1990, and their first major release since their 2007 live album Lichtjahre. If you’re in Europe, be sure to catch one of their upcoming concerts or the Blackfield Festival in Gelsenkirchen where they will be headlining.

no kidding, that does sound like an interesting documentary! not least because it is an intensely fascinating time in the history of the city, short weeks after the wall opened and before reunification.
I hear EN are on tour in Europe again, I hope they will decide to continue the tour over here eventually…

Yeah, I will definitely want to see that documentary. I’m still waiting to get Berlin Babylon as well, the documentary about the reconstruction in Berlin which EN did the soundtrack for.
And of course, I’m definitely in support of an EN tour here!

While you two think politics and history… I’m just gonna rant and rave about Lacrimosa having a new cd!! YAY!! He might be a pretty boy, but damn the boy can sing! I hope I have some extra cash when its released.
