Ever since the announcement of their signing to Alfa Matrix last year, the return of this living legend has been one of the most eagerly anticipated events on the EBM scene! Today, ARMAGEDDON DILDOS bring you their new studio release, entitled “Untergrund”. Hold your breath!

ARMAGEDDON DILDOS were founded in 1989 by Uwe Kanka and Dirk Krause and quickly caught the attention of Talla 2XLC, who signed them to his Zoth-Ommog label. With EBM club hits such as “Never Mind” and “East West”, the duo immediately built up a formidable live reputation thanks to their explosive and high-energy performances, which took them all over the world.

Album by album, the German duo progressively blended their pure technoid EBM sequences with more industrial sounds, and later they also began to fuse guitars and even pop elements into their fast-paced electronic sounds. Their rise to fame also led to collaborations with various renowned producers, including Keith ‘Fluffy’ Auerbach (Ministry, Revolting Cocks, Pigface, Skinny Puppy, etc.), Bob Kraushaar (Pet Shop Boys, David Bowie, etc.), Andy Gill (Gang of Four, Michael Hutchence, etc.) and Mathias Black (Tommy Stumpf, The Fair Sex,

After more than 10 years of intensive collaboration, Dirk and Uwe parted ways, leaving Mister Kanka alone at the helm of the ARMAGEDDON DILDOS ship. Captain Uwe rose to the challenge and steered the DILDOS flagship even further on his strong

 Surrounded by a new line-up and the announcement of a return to a more electronically-oriented sound, ARMAGEDDON DILDOS released *Morgengrauen* in 2003 and *Sangreal* in 2005.

The new album *Untergrund* is packed with songs in both German and English, offering a sizzling cocktail of in-your-face minimal EBM, muscle-bound melodic hooks, powerful growling vocals and a dark touch of power. Reminiscent of RAMMSTEIN in the power of their forceful German vocals, ARMAGEDDON DILDOS have been hailed as the German musical counterpart to FRONT 242. With his new album, Uwe Kanka proves once again that less can be so much more, and that he possesses this impressive talent for blending optimistic sequences with dark synths, perfectly balancing them with catchy, sing-along melodies, choruses and dynamic guitar riffs.

Following the astonishing return of LEAETHER STRIP, also on Alfa Matrix, this is another major and promising comeback… ARMAGEDDON is coming! Kick us in the face! Knock us out with a single blow!!
