Die Krupps’ second album, “Volle Kraft Voraus”, released in 1982, and featuring such cult tracks as “Wahre Arbeit, wahrer Lohn” and “Goldfinger”, has never been reissued on vinyl since its first pressing by Warner in 1982.

The wait is now over as Artoffact Records presents a reissue edition of Volle Kraft Voraus, on both black or collector’s pink vinyl, with remastered audio and restored cover art. You can order these vinyls right here from the label’s mailorder.

The same year the album came out, Ralf Dörper, who was part of the initial line-up, left the band to found the band Propaganda. He would however return in 1985.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
