May anyone recommend me any good Neue Deutsche Welle albums or artists or compliations?

I find DAF or Deutsch-Amerikanische Freundschaft to be phenomenal:



or anything from Die Kleinen und die Bösen.

I would recommend first two Die Krupps albums: Stahlwerksinfonie and Volle Kraft voraus. The first one consists of two long, noisy post-punk tracks, and the second one is more on the EBM side.

YouTube - ‪Die Krupps - Goldfinger (Long Version)‬‏

Der Plan is quirky minimal synth formed by Pyrolator who was briefly in D.A.F. I recommend their 1980. album Geri Reig:


YouTube - ‪Der Plan - Adrenalin.mov‬‏

Pyrolator whom I already mentioned. Inland is a really good album, electronic and more abstract


YouTube - ‪Pyrolator - It Always Rains In Wuppertal‬‏

Liaisons Dangereuses, electro-industrial or EBM, self titled album


YouTube - ‪Liaisons Dangereuses - Los Ninos Del Parque‬‏

Malaria!, album Emotion


YouTube - ‪malaria!-gewissen‬‏

Palais Schaumburg, self titled, post-punk


YouTube - ‪Palais Schaumburg - Madonna‬‏

That's on top of my head and for now.I will not merge this with recommendation thread, cause it can stand on its own and I really think such exciting and fertile scene like German New Wave deserves a thread. Probably the most influential scene in Europe (outside of UK) in the new wave and post-punk time. Moved to the punk forum. (Hmmm..maybe we need post-punk sub forum...)
