_____________________________________
Nitzer Ebb produced hard-hitting electronic music with the Teutonic bent and abrasive edge of early industrial music, plus the vocal chanting and beat-heavy flavor of the late-'80s alternative and Balearic dance scene. Formed in Chelmsford, Essex, in 1982 by vocalist Douglas McCarthy, drummer Bon Harris, and keyboard player David Gooday, the group began experimenting with synthesizers and drum pads, fusing the bandmembers' affinity for dark goth and punk rock with the emerging technology.
After the release of That Total Age, Nitzer Ebb toured Europe with Depeche Mode, and the latter band's pop sensibilities appeared to inspire them. By the time of their second album.
The following year's Ebbhead further consolidated their position with alternative audiences, with at least two well-known singles, "I Give to You" and "Godhead."
Showtime is the third album of the British EBM group Nitzer Ebb. It featured two successful singles, "Lightning Man" and "Fun to be Had," the latter of which was later remixed by George Clinton. "Getting Closer" was also released as a single.
Showtime doesn't waste a note (it's not even 40 minutes long) and aims for full attack on all fronts. It doesn't hurt that the album is bookended by two of the band's best-ever singles. "Getting Closer" captures an atmosphere of impending, imminent doom better than just about anything outside of prime Killing Joke, while the heavy synth distortion makes the track rock, all without using guitars.

LYRICS
One step, two steps
Getting closer, getting closer
Let them believe me
Let them wonder if I lie
Let them believe me
Let them wonder if I lie
Let them believe me
Let them wonder if I lie
I know what you buy
But I'm not saying
I know what you buy
I'm not gonna try
You never take
You think that you're just right
You never did that just right
Is it good
Done for you
You're gonna miss out
Done for you
You're gonna miss out
Done for you
You're gonna miss
I've got to say that it hurts
I've got to say that it hurts
I've got to say that
One step, two steps
Getting closer, getting closer
Let them believe me
Let them wonder if I lie
Let them believe me
Let them wonder if I lie
Let them believe me
Let them wonder if I lie
I know what you buy
And it's…

Still one of my favorite workout music, after all these years. Bought most their vinyls since 1987 and this is one of them.

[@andreitelegin3697]

I have very rare vinyl of nitzer ebb. I can sell it. It's a second single from Big Hit album. It called " I thought", limited edition

[@dustinwright4366]

Open for DM violator they where better than DEPECHE MODE NEXT DAY I BOUGHT ALL THERE CDS

[@maximebegin1454]

SAME :)

[@mackeydirk8643]

We used to go to a club in 1990 that had an under 21 night.....the start of this song had everyone on the floor slowly circling the room gradually picking up speed until the song kicked in.

[@danadoozer9990]

Hell yes! I have those same memories!

[@gordongattjnr7123]

That’s fucking awesome 👏

[@allthingsbegin]

THOSE were the days!

[@wsh6508]

There was a club in San Jose Cali called the usual . They would play this great song , ministry Joy division, good f ing times 😁😁

[@mazurekny]

First time ever even hearing of NE was when they opened for Depeche Mode here in NJ/NYC during World Violation Tour in Summer 1990. They in fact started with this song and everyone was blown away.

[@peteconsidine]

Was that show at the Meadowlands? I think I was there. 😊

[@redfiresvt]

Me too. I saw them when they opened for D-Mode and it was amazing.

[@kevinroycope5154]

Damn that is some good shit!

[@mitchelstephen7536]

I still have an Oberheim Xpander I bought over 30 years ago after listening to Nitzer Ebb, Depeche mode and Nine Inch Nails.

[@user-cr5jp8kd8m]

Great video and song

[@KonichiWawa]

All these years later I have terrible tinnitus. Thank you so much Nitzer, F 242 etc.

[@michaelkennedy6415]

This song from my youth is needed more than ever. The video is brilliant and is a great assessment of where the (re)education is going. Beautiful Marriage!!!

[@keithrooks9120]

Soundtrack of my youth

[@TzadikTheManic]

Back then hearing Nitzer Ebb @ Industrial Night at The Building (NYC) with DJ Slave was an earth shaking, exhilarating experience - dancing our @sses off also to Meat Beat Manifesto, Front 242, Ministry (when “Thieves” was dropped....biggest mosh pit🖤), KMFDM, Consolidated, My Life With The Thrill Kill Cult, and on & on... There was the sickest house remix of Nitzer’s “Fun to be Had” that had to have been a super ltd white label; I could never find it & I have all of the remixes. Anyhow - amazing times!

[@mnmlstellar]

🤍🩶🖤

[@rafalwieczorek3533]

Moja najlepsza piosenka NE😊

[@leifbennett1354]

It still has today's beat's beat and lyrics that crush. They opened with this, during the build up a guy came up and said you ready then slammed me perfect to opening beat and pit was on. The real deal old school punk mosh pits. It was a privilege to survive that pit. Thanks Nitzer Ebb.

[@damianecheverria5891]

Very interesting that Raymans Yeah! 1:05 and 2:45 is sampled from this. Hopefully more Rayman fans find this!

[@EtsiJuuret]

[@GameboyGuitar]

WTF!!! I literally thought that the first time I heard this song. I just thought it was a coincidence and that they sounded similar, but now this makes sense! YEAH!!!

Musique et esthétique national bolchevik. À la mémoire de Édouard LIMONOV ❤!

[@nommediploom2033]

Always loved this song but I'd never seen the video, that's something else. Maybe a nod to 242's Headhunter video here, but great all the same

[@fadedSF]

It wasn't a video for the song you can look up the original video film called "the children". In the description for this video they credit the original filmmakers at the bottom. It was a short film that was pretty much the same length of the song so they just took out the original audio and put in the nitzer ebb song in there

[@Maladaptation_ThiesWrobel]

EBM 😎🎹🎤🥾

[@mnmlstellar]

[@mnmlstellar]

🤷‍♀️

[@honokatheanimelover6754]

Is that the "Yeah!" from Rayman at 1:05?

[@Thrillkisser]

🖤🔥👏🏽

[@rafalwieczorek5574]

Ulubiona piosenka obok personal jesus,wybuch .....

[@chriskane5901]

!!

[@kontakt501]

Is this an actual movie? Title?

[@mnmlstellar]

sorry i don't remember the title and I always credit the videos if I have not filmed them myself. 🙏🏻

[@EtsiJuuret]

Title is in the beginning of the video))

[@lidiuska]

Chinese or Japanese writing would be from right to left...

[@fadedSF]

I would say maybe the people who made this video slip the original video backwards to avoid copyright infringement or something but all the other numbers are correct. The original short film was made by Japanese filmmakers so I guess I don't know what to tell you there..? Maybe that has some hidden meaning......

[@DyslexicAnaboko]

Just curious. Did you ask for permission to use this video? I see you gave it credit in the description, but all you did was put music on top of this guy's video which already had audio. Not really sure if that's okay. This is the original: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHaXoK1oqpuCfrs

[@mnmlstellar]

i know, thanks for the appointment. I only edit the videos for suport the music scene.

[@DyslexicAnaboko]

@@mnmlstellar I understand. Just be careful with copyright etc.

[@EtsiJuuret]

Is it your video?

[@DyslexicAnaboko]

@@EtsiJuuret read the initial comment. It's not my video, but I don't like freebooting. I already spoke to the creator about it three years ago and they were fine with it.

[@nopenope5812]

Poor tomato heads
