Die Krupps - A Tribute To Metallica



Die Krupps is a German industrial rock/EBM band, formed in 1980 by Jürgen Engler and Bernward Malaka in Düsseldorf. This album is one of the most atrocious few minutes of music I have ever heard. They give you two versions of "One" and they both sound outright comical- though I'm sure that was unintended. Besides the strong accent, the singer always sounds like he's running out of breath and trying to squeeze out his last few words before he passes out- too bad he never did.
