For 45 years, Die Krupps has shaped the sound of industrial music—merging EBM, metal, and machine-driven intensity into a legacy that influenced countless artists around the world. Now, the pioneers return to celebrate their milestone anniversary with a tour that marks the beginning of a powerful new era.
2025 brings the release of Die Krupps’ highly anticipated new album, a record that captures everything fans love about the band: pounding industrial rhythms, dark electronic atmospheres, and anthemic choruses sharpened with uncompromising attitude. Founders Jürgen Engler and Ralf Dörper continue to push the genre forward, joined by drummer Paul Keller and new guitarist Dylan Smith (The Sisters of Mercy), whose energy and stage presence elevate the band’s sound to new heights.
This anniversary tour is a journey through the band’s groundbreaking past, their relentless present, and the bold future they’re forging. From early EBM foundations to their industrial metal evolution and into the new material of 2025, Die Krupps delivers a show that feels both historic and fiercely alive.
For fans of industrial, EBM, metal, darkwave, and electronic rock, this is a rare chance to see one of the genre’s most influential and enduring bands performing at full power. Die Krupps aren’t just celebrating 45 years—they’re proving why their sound continues to resonate across generations.
