Industrial metal legends Die Krupps offer an exclusive tour EP. This hand-numbered collectors' item, entitled Will nicht - MUSS! / On Collision Course, will be sold by the band on its 45th anniversary tour, which kicked off at the DVG Club in the famous Belgian medieval battle-town of Kortrijk on 27 August (see HERE for all currently announced tour dates).

Will nicht - MUSS! / On Collision Course contains guest contributions and remixes from prominent musicians of renowned acts such as Ministry, with whom Die Krupps have just successfully toured in the US. As a first taste of the EP as well as of the upcoming new album, the Germans have released the advance single, "On Collision Course".

Die Krupps' keyboardist, Ralf Dörper, comments: "You may be forgiven to think that 'On Collision Course' and 'Will nicht - Muss!', which translates into 'don't want to - have to', could have been the working titles for our upcoming European tour. In truth, the 45 years of influential sounds from Düsseldorf have been our guiding theme. In celebration of this anniversary, we have created this exclusive EP as a treat for all the dedicated fans coming to our concerts. It will give you an impression about what sound is currently happening in our steelworks as the above mentioned singles of the double title will also provide a first and second taste of our upcoming album. The EP also includes some sonic glimpses of the experiences and friendships made on our recent US-tour with Ministry. Watch out for those remixes!" Link
