Product Description
From Amazon.com
Einstürzende Neubauten's sixth album, 1989's Haus der Lüge, is a real eye-opener as well as a turning point for the Berlin-based band. For one thing, you can hear how much more attention is being paid to rock idioms--clearly an influence from frontman Blixa Bargeld's moonlighting as Nick Cave's guitarist. More important, though, is that the metal bashing, glass breaking, and electric drilling--in many ways the be-all, end-all of the band's early, musique-concrète-influenced sound--is here harnessed in subservience to downright tuneful compositions. The unmistakable message: Hey, we're "real" musicians, too. Still, Neubauten neophytes will undoubtedly find listening to Haus der Lüge a bit like having a dentist clean their ears. The opener, "Prolog," sounds like a German poetry slam held in a subway tunnel, and "Fiat Lux," a 12-minute opus kicked off by 30 seconds of buzzing bees, is bound to get up your bonnet. Elsewhere it's a different story. The beat-heavy "Feurio!" projects an industrial-dance energy, and the lilting "Ein Stuhl in der Hölle" sounds like it was meant to be chanted in a beer hall. But the crowning achievement here is the title track, an epic, foot-stomping, Dantean allegory that culminates with God shooting himself. Simply awe-inspiring. --Steve Landau

Great Album, Bad Record Company,
By A Customer
This review is from: Haus Der Luege (Audio CD)
If you plan to buy this album, please don't buy the version distributed by Thirsty Ear/Some Bizarre Records. The company has never paid the band for its recordings, and NONE of your purchase price will go to the creators of this exceptional music.Another version is available through Indigo Records, and the group does get paid for those copies.

WOW,
By Bill Powell (Fallbrook, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Haus Der Luege (Audio CD)
This was the first Neubauten album I had ever heard... and is among the top of my favorite albums of all time. The album starts off the "intro", some great German poetry spoken by Blixa with noise thrown in between stanzas and the album just gets more explosive from there. Feurio! and the title track are Neubauten classics that any fan of "industrial" music should know and love. GET THIS ALBUM!
