The band was formed in 1980 by Jürgen Engler and Bernward Malaka in Düsseldorf. Ralf Dörper who was part of the initial line-up which created the highly acclaimed early recordings “Stahlwerksynfonie” and “Wahre Arbeit Wahrer Lohn” in 1981 left the band in 1982 to found the band Propaganda. In 1989 Ralf Dörper initiated a collaboration with Nitzer Ebb on an old Die Krupps track (i.e. “Machineries of Joy”, a cover of “Wahre Arbeit Wahrer Lohn”) which he produced together with Jürgen Engler. They would release 10 albums between 1980 and 2015 with the last one being “V – Metal Machine Music” from 2015.
