So excited about this news...but here's what I know so far...

A tour not sure how extensive. Right now it seems to be Holland based, but they know they have a big following over here in the states...so I'm keeping the fingers crossed.

1. Body Of Work CD
a 2 disc cd released by Mute that will have all the singles and related tracks (rareties such as bonus tracks that were very limited etc) on disc 1 and then disc 2 will contain original remixes and maybe some very rare or unreleased ones too.

2. Body Of Work Vinyl
Mute will also release a cut down vinyl version of Body Of Work containing the classic and most sort after (by dj's) remixes.

3. Body Of Work DVD
partly due to the large amount of footage that is spread around the globe and partly because they want to shoot and include footage from the upcoming tour, they will postpone the release of the dvd to the autumn. it will contain all the videos and plenty of never before seen footage from the entire history of Nitzer Ebb.

4. Body Of Work Microsite
will be online soon and containing all informations to the Body Of Work Releases.

ANd trhey are working on a remix comp...not much news on that though.

But the good news is that they have seemed to settle their diffs and we may get one more album out of them.

I know that I know some Nitzer Ebb songs but I can't think of any...

Maybe this will be the way to get educated?

Okay I recognize almost all of those. This track gets special mention though as I rocked my box to it many a night back in my early days at First Ave.

I will have to pick this up when it hits the stores...

That song and they were mostly obscure back when that track was released...though everyone played it no one knew who they were. That song still gets plays. And it rocked my box as well...back in the day. Though some of those others rocked as well.

I've seen them 3 times in concert (if you saw DM's violator tour, you saw them too). Each time rocked the house and the pit!

that song is funny..i mean the psuedo-agressiveness..i enjoy them along with D.A.F..of course they were less homoerotic than D.A.F...

I think much of what they were trying to say was an anti-facsist statement. At least much of the first albums "lyrics". They of course got better at conveying messages in later albums.
