"[This] is the definitive account of Düsseldorf's most influential bands, including Kraftwerk, NEU!, La Düsseldorf, Rheingold, DAF, Propaganda and many others. Rudi Esch, bass player of industrial band Die Krupps, has carried out more than 50 exclusive interviews to create this fascinating insight into the secretive scene. He has followed the trail of those who shaped and lived through this era, as well as those who were genuinely influenced by it; bands like OMD, Heaven 17, Visage and Ultravox, all of whom became ambassadors of this revolutionary new form of music" -- Back cover
