German Deathmetal and Techno band listing

One source suggested that you check out the band L'ame Immortelle, in which a German-and-English pair sing gothic rock. One of them has a side project called Nachtmahr (a word which, like ALBTRAUM, means NIGHTMARE). This music should be available on the U.S. iTunes.

According to Arnt Peltner, a RadioGoethe.org colleague, the following bands fall into a new genre of music called Neue Deutsche Härte (New Hardcore German; which I'm thinking may be considered "Deathmetal"; let me know):

• Megaherz
• Eisbrecher
• Oomph!
• Richthofen
• Stahlhammer
• Schacht
• In Extremo
• Subway to Sally
• Umbra et Umago
• Die Krupps,
• KMFDM
• (die!)
• Tanzwut
• Eisheilig
• Stahlmann
• Frei
• Wild
• Geist (current RadioGoethe Program features this band)

For straight-up techno, Herr Peltier recommends:

• Paul Kalkbrenner
• Tomcraft
• Lützenkirchen
• Kiki
• Saroos,
• Krink
• Ellen Allien.

Another source suggested that Monika Kruse and Ellen Allien are two great German DJs to check out.

  2. Never heard of any of these. Then again, I don't really like metal and techno music.
