I'm still so glad I was able to be here for this concert I almost couldn't get off of duty while stationed in Germany early enough to make it.. I had just bought my first few synthesizers and was starting to get involved in industrial music what a great time to be involved in industrial music and in Germany at the same time
I am 67 yo and still listen to this band. They may be a little older like me but they still KICK ASS!!! This film is a hidden gem!! Thank you for uploading it!😀😀❤❤👍👍👍
Mit Nitzer Ebb bin ich aufgewachsen...und die Energie fließt noch heute durch meinen Körper. Geiler geht es kaum noch. Habe sie als Vorgruppe von Depeche Mode gesehen (muss Ende der 80´er gewesen sein). Das war fast besser als DM selbst.
tmuell26 War auch für mich damals genau der richtige Sound.Das war meine Jugend, nebb,242,Die Bunker, a split second. Habe sie auch als Vorgruppe von Depeche Mode gesehen, Oldenburg'89 nur geil!!
***** los yanquis nunca supieron hacer musica electronica y mucho menos entendieron el techno industrial europeo. NIN es totalmente ordinario en su sonido tan sucio y sin calidad.
Cool, Nitzer Ebb was formed after a year (1982) that Front 242 was formed in 1981. Front 242 are the godfathers of EBM. And after all those years, both bands still exist
@@te9591 yes, in an underground car park at frankfurt/airport. organized by techno club which took place on fridays at Dorian Gray. don't remember the prize. i think it was around 25,00 DM.
Shit, I just realized that I am in the first rand. After 23 years I see myself in this video in Paris ... How does it feel funny. If I told myself that one day I would see in this concert .... wwwwaaaaahhhhhhh
Thank god, someone recorded this! It is so 80ies! And… remember! This young lads created some real evergreens! And… noticed? The hair style, en vogue again.
After that special night in Frankfurt we´ve never been to a concert with such an energy and power. We are still glad, that we had the chance to be part of this fantastic event. Don´t know how many people have squashed into this "fighting cage". Still getting goose bumps watching this clip.
I was born almost a decade after this show even happened and I’m so immeasurably thankful someone filmed it. The amount of times I’ve come back to this video over the past ten or so years has been ridiculous; an underrated gem of bootlegs. Such a perfect set from a band in their prime and a great crowd too. Fucking killer
OMFG!!!!!!!! it's 2022 and in 1989 i was only 14. i was barely getting into DM and had no idea NE even existed. Then DM rolls into town with the world violation tour and BOOM!!!! NE comes on stage and blows me away. DM who??? Gonna go see them this weekend with ministry and NIN in Ohio and my old ass is gonna go crazy! ;)
I own, according to websites with the most "Knowledge", every single one of their albums, records, CD's, recorded videos, shirts, and even an autopraphed Skin... From NITZER EBB, Hollywood, few years ago... YEAH!!!
found out about this band cause they opened for NIN at the Eden Project in Cornwall. long drive there so missed them. later found out they performed without Douglas McCarthy (main vocalist) that night, and I didn't know them that well at the time anyways so didn't care. but since then I've been listening to them a bunch. this shit is so cool and it hits hard. more people gotta hear it.
DUDE!! idk why I've never looked for NE live uploads on UA-cam, considering I'm 51 and had begun listening to NE in high school, my 1st introduction was of course "That Total Age" and I was hooked on the blistering synths and macho basslines paired with Douglas over the top vocal style replete with his signature grunts and other noises.. So THANKS BIG to the channel, I subscribed to you.. you can really tell how energized the crowd was when "Violent Playground" started.. I'm also kicking myself for never having seen NE in concert and also never saw Depeche Mode.. Fuck I was class of 1990, I should have been at every cool band's concerts!!! There was great entertainment in the late 80s early 90s here in Florida, the old Power Station/The Asylum in Melbourne, Florida (not Australia) had so many great bands of that era grace the stage there.. also in Palm Bay at The Village Underground and Orlando's The Edge, as well as JJ Whispers/Six Feet Under/ Cyberzone.. I did manage to see all of these groups in that time: Skinny Puppy, Frontline Assembly, Pigface, The Cramps, The Jesus And Mary Chain, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, ChemLab, Nine Inch Nails, Cosmic Baby, CCCP, Cut Rate Box, Book Of Love, Gene Loves Jezebel, Lords Of Acid, A Split-Second, MC 900 Ft. Jesus, Severed Heads, Legendary Pinkdots, KMFDM, and several others. Never got to see Front 242.. Thanks again for this blast from the past!
I remember being around 16-17 years old and I bought Nitzer Ebb “Belief” white album it changed me forever!! It was deep, dark and haunting!! I still listen to that album more than any other album from them! TWA was my all time instrumental song ever!! Very deep! Thanks for sharing this and hearing them playing my favorite song in the beginning intro!
my old band Pure Bunk had the pleasure of being their support act in Australia around 2006 I think....like a dream come true . Bon and Douglas were just great guys and I hope Douglas recovers to be well enough to delight us more on stage into the future .
Soooo good! I got to see them open for Depeche Mode on the Showtime tour in Chicago, and later got to see them again in Chicago at Cold Waves on the same night as Front 242 and Portion Control. Although the latter NE show felt a bit more like "Nitzer Lite" compared to shows from the era in this clip, it was still a great performance from these three legends (plus Light Asylum and two other more rock-leaning acts).
Saw them in April of the following year in Frankfurt, Germany @ a venue called Volksbildungsheim. A lot of great people of the time in the Frankfurt EBM scene were there as well. These were amazing times.
Delicious . It was AWESOME coming up in these days :) Reynosa Mexico was my hangout on the weekends during high school. Best music has already been made
Great to hear, I have been a lot around in the FFM techno scene between 1986 and 1994, enjoying a lot of the weirdest techno, house, industrial, indie, rave and noise music of that time live there. Great times!
I’m watching this at 6.00 am in the morning while my wife and dog are sleeping! I been listening since the 80s and continue!! November 25, 2024.
I'm still so glad I was able to be here for this concert I almost couldn't get off of duty while stationed in Germany early enough to make it..

Ex military?
You lucky soul. What a gig.
Amazing someone had the brains to document this. Thanks a million!
seriously whoever has the camera is a hero, this is some of the best concert footage ive ever seen and its in fucking 1989
I love this comment!
Fuck yes I totally agree. I would do anything! To be there.

playing Blood Money twice? Fucking genius
THIS IS THE BEST AND MOST HARDKICKING EBM KONSERT EVER BEEN MADE!
Nitzer at their very best.
false. look at DAF. the absolute creators of this sound and style. NE pretty duped it
Yes!
ebm? its industrial you douch
@@voodoodisco Who cares. Nitzer Ebb is better.
@@voodoodisco Also funny how you gloss over Severed Heads and Portion Control
2025 y todavía los escucho, NB por siempre!
i was there... fuck i am old.. but still joining the chant
What an adventure
This is Nitzer Ebb I miss and love.
I miss his old way of singing with the shouting.
Their first three albums❤️
@ Jae White....I absolutely agree !
100% Agree
I didn't like Big Hit at all
I concur
And with the drum kits!

I worked backstage security at the nitzer ebb Depeche mode concert in either 1988 or 1989 in Dallas, what a fricken killer concert !!!
I was at that show. I believe it was 1990 or 91. Starplex right? Nitzer Ebb opened for Depeche Mode. It was on the violator tour!
Best industrial band ever, much better than NIN in my opinion
is much better than NIN, because this is EBM not industrial.
***** los yanquis nunca supieron hacer musica electronica y mucho menos entendieron el techno industrial europeo. NIN es totalmente ordinario en su sonido tan sucio y sin calidad.
SI Y NO LO QUE DICES. electro body music lo impuso front 242 y es la mezcla de percusiones industriales con ritmos sinthpop.
+Alex H 2 totally different bands though, right?
This For sure
Cool, Nitzer Ebb was formed after a year (1982) that Front 242 was formed in 1981. Front 242 are the godfathers of EBM. And after all those years, both bands still exist
It only means front 242 started the race a year before them... Nitzer ebb are definitely pioneers of electronic music
this is ultimate! and great sound quality considering its from 89...good shit. i wish crowds were like that now
Damn good.
Great to stumble on these old posts.
Great jam. Great time to work in this scene. Great time to be alive! :)
Thanks!!!
The vocals are as energetic and raw as they are perfectly tight and controlled, wow!
I remember that there was a huge bass speaker system tube amp setup underneath the stage that just ripped your guts apart it was amazing
A legendary live recording from the legendary Technoclub at Dorian Gray, Frankfurt. Miss you Dorian.
DG war echt gut.
even at this quality this might be the best version of Shame they ever did
i was there. unbelievable to see this again. : )
In Germany? Ticket cost?
@@te9591 yes, in an underground car park at frankfurt/airport. organized by techno club which took place on fridays at Dorian Gray. don't remember the prize. i think it was around 25,00 DM.
@@man-in-a-suitcase wiah, weird, on the underground parking garage location.
Best live EBM footage ever!!
I saw them in Paris during this tour. I remember the slap I received with the power of sound. Crazy energy group with Front 242.
I love Drive so much! My neighbour wants to move when i play this!
This was posted 13 yr ago and just came across my feed today. How did YT know I needed this. Man this brings me wayyy back
Pure Energy in the good days
Shit, I just realized that I am in the first rand. After 23 years I see myself in this video in Paris ... How does it feel funny. If I told myself that one day I would see in this concert .... wwwwaaaaahhhhhhh
Their first 3 albums are sheer genius! I saw them on their Showtime club tour. Also when they opened for Depeche Mode on the Violator Tour.
Me too. Nothing like I had ever seen before.
This is great piece of history. Thanks. I jam to this regularly.

Wir waren auf diesem Konzert in Frankfurt Technoclub im Dorian Gray
Man, I remember going to that club in 1987/88. The ticket you got to buy drinks, and paid at the end…😬Awesome place, greatest time be young and alive!

Love this! Best EBM-band ever!
The energy is relentless
Ebb in their prime, love this band forever!
This is perfect EBM, if they are to be labeled at all… How about, just, Perfect. Yes, they make perfect music.
I own, according to websites with the most "Knowledge", every single one of their albums, records, CD's, recorded videos, shirts, and even an autopraphed Skin... From NITZER EBB, Hollywood, few years ago... YEAH!!!

Puré energy one of BEST converts ever
Amazing! I saw them in Oslo on February 6th. 1989 on this tour! Such great memories!!! :D

The best hour, four minutes and fifty six seconds in my life happened right here. 29.03.24
I remember being around 16-17 years old and I bought Nitzer Ebb “Belief” white album it changed me forever!! It was deep, dark and haunting!! I still listen to that album more than any other album from them! TWA was my all time instrumental song ever!! Very deep! Thanks for sharing this and hearing them playing my favorite song in the beginning intro!
I just love that 80's sound :) so sweet
F love twa! Ty!
this is soooooo rad
Ich war auch live dabei! Best concert ever!
my old band Pure Bunk had the pleasure of being their support act in Australia around 2006 I think....like a dream come true . Bon and Douglas were just great guys and I hope Douglas recovers to be well enough to delight us more on stage into the future .
ID LOVE TO HEAR THEM IN THE ORIGINAL FORM ! IT REALLY SPEAKS VOLUMES , OR IT SPEAKS FOR US OLEDER LADS , THAT LIVED THROUGH THIS , a GOOD BAND !
They sound so good live!
Love it! Great live! Amazing synths.
during Warsaw Ghetto they should of just let that guy rock out, he wasn't hurting anyone just boosting morale
I was hoping to see them live at m'era Luna this year, I hate the fact that it got cancelled.
thank god for youtube. this is how you reminisce the good ol days. thanx for the vid. keep rockin it steady yall.
Soooo good! I got to see them open for Depeche Mode on the Showtime tour in Chicago, and later got to see them again in Chicago at Cold Waves on the same night as Front 242 and Portion Control.
