Just back from the roads of Europe and full concert halls, industrial metal icons Die Krupps drop a new video single, "Will nicht - MUSS!". This track is taken from the Will nicht - MUSS! / On Collision Course EP, sold as a hand-numbered collectors' CD during the already ended and highly successful 45th anniversary tour of this genre-defining band.
Due to high demand for the EP, Die Krupps will offer only 45 copies as an exclusive 45th anniversary gatefold vinyl edition filled with a petrol-green liquid. A limited transparent green gatefold vinyl will also be made available. Both versions will be released on 12 December on Dependent Records.
The Will nicht - MUSS! / On Collision Course EP contains guest contributions and remixes from prominent musicians of renowned acts such as Ministry, with whom Die Krupps successfully toured in the US earlier this year. The two single tracks of the EP also offer a first glimpse at the upcoming new album.
Die Krupps’ Jürgen Engler on "Will nicht - MUSS!": "The original idea for 'Will Nicht - MUSS!' is based on the classic German movie M (1931), which was directed by Fritz Lang following his huge success with Metropolis. The movie's subtitle, A City Is Hunting for a Killer, sums up the basic plot. The child-murdering antagonist keeps whistling the main theme from Edvard Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King throughout the movie. This inspired us to take Grieg's melody and add our classic harsh Die Krupps sound to it. The composition came together just as quickly as our 2013 hit "Robo Sapien", which is always a good sign for us. We sincerely hope that you will receive the track just as positively!"
