about

German industrial metal and EBM pioneers DIE KRUPPS originally conceived the EP "Will nicht - MUSS! / On Collision Course" as a limited collectors' item in the shape of a hand-numbered CD for their European tour 2025. Due to high demand, limited vinyl editions will be added to the catalogue. The EP contains guest contributions and remixes from prominent musicians of renowned acts such as MINISTRY with whom DIE KRUPPS had successfully toured in the US and Canada earlier in 2025. The two eponymous tracks of the EP also offer a first glimpse at the upcoming new album to be released in 2026. DIE KRUPPS have left a massive mark on the German electronic music scene and created a strong impact around the globe. And they are not done with continuing their work at all. Although in the 45th year of their fascinating career, DIE KRUPPS are ready to take on the world with their forthcoming new studio album. For 45 years, DIE KRUPPS have been synonymous with innovation, energy and uncompromising attitude. What Jürgen Engler as the driving creative force and composer and the visionary lyricist and sound artist Ralf Dörper have created (although these roles have never been mutually exclusive) is more than just music – it is a movement, a soundtrack for rebellion and change that has blurred the boundaries between EBM, industrial and metal. They have meanwhile been joined by drummer extraordinaire Paul Keller and as the latest addition, guitarist Dylan Smith, who is well-known from his time with the legendary THE SISTERS OF MERCY. Smith brings a breath of fresh air and a special dynamic to the group, taking the band's already powerful sound to a new level. In their 45th anniversary year, DIE KRUPPS present a first taste of the musical delicacies to come with the EP The "Will nicht - MUSS! / On Collision Course"!
