Kommando Zurueck - …From Outta Space (2011)




/Electro-punk, Alternative pop, Electro pop, Robot pop, Electroclash, Camp pop/

Comment: Kommando Zurueck (or Kommando Zurück) is a collective which does not feel ashamed at all by exploiting cheesy, even deliberately campy elements to mix them into their electro-influenced punk/electro-clash embodiment. More concretely, it is a quite contrasty feel to hear Kraftwerk-esque robotic vocal embellishments along with gimcrack yet often ironical singing in German and infrequently in English. Furthermore, the whole seems to be produced tongue-in-cheek. The favourite tracks of mine are Realitaet, and Mega-Bite.
