I'm gettin' rusty before I'm even outa the gate! heheh

ummm, crazy band, started out with money from a national art foundation - filmed themselves banging on junk under and overpass. To quote from another esteemed member in another topic on this forum:

"Their first album was recorded in a crawlspace under a highway bridge where they lived, and was funded by the German government's arts council. They used construction debris as instrumentation, and still do to this day."

One main member has sometimes shared the stage with a crazy Australian band, with a lead member of some note. Banshee howling has become one of his favorite things to do in the "quiet" moments of a song....

Uhhh, The director Wim Wenders likes 'em.

Hmmm, Krautrock. I should probably go and ask Julian Cope.

Erm...
Kraftwerk, Rammstein, Amon Duul II. Thats all I got.

No no no no - though Kraftwerk and Faust are great and fun. I almost got asphyxiated at a Faust concert Great White/Rhode-Island-death-trap-bar-style, stupid fogmachines and firecrackers heheheh.

Oh yeah, my point. Nope. Not it.

I even gave you a quote from another recent section <in general chat> of this forum, the source of which contains the name of the band, fer cryin' out loud. geeesh!

Ok, the main member of the group has also appeared frequently alongside Nick Cave and the Badseeds. If that doesn't give it away, then I'll know you guys just aren't trying very hard. :)

But what's the song?......

Alright, I have no clue. If you abuse a tape head as in playing a tape too much...

Earplugs?
Hearing Aid?
A New Tape?

I don't know any songs by them.

hahahaha! You'll need to read back a few posts CoF, sounds like. Yes it is a tape head. Not abuse, necessarily, just regular old use will eventually necessitate using this product.....which if you figure it out, is the name of the song.

Here is a hint that might actually help:
When I saw them (Einsturzende Neubauten) in concert, this song, which has about a 2 minute-long section of pure high-frequency tones near the end, made me very dizzy, and was a very 3-dimensional experience. As you turned your head, the sound changed immensely, and it felt like the sound was like a huge pool of liquid filling the room, and my brain.

No, I was not, and am not, on drugs. ;)

Poop. That was not my intention! That means my hints suck. OK, try this one - Here's a pic of the action (same word) that you do with this stuff:

I think your hints are fine, but I just don't know any of their songs. So, having said thus, I'm going to proceed with several suggestions in the hope that Carolyn can pick up the pieces.

Head Cleaning?

Gee Dean, I dunno how you got it, but Congratulations! I admire your dogged determination.

You're up next. Shoot a pickle! On second thought, I'm not sure who this goes to. Are you offering this one up to Carolynanna, Dean? All I can say is, the hat's in the ring ;)

Alright, this in itself should be a big enough hint: it's from a band in my top five's first record. We'll see if that's good enough...

She's gone in a word
The ephedrine
Got caught halfway down
The pretty underground.

Don't wanna' miss such American scene
And I said to myself I'm "___ ______ ____"

Ah, someone did her research in a separate thread. I'll give you that it's one of those three. And from their first album, no less... but if you've never heard the first albums of any of these then maybe I should let someone else go. I feel a little like I cheated to get here or something. :)

Apl, you're close but you're way off.
