Straftanz

Straftanz is an enigmatic force within the industrial and aggrotech music scenes, known for their hard-hitting electronic beats and commanding presence. Emerging in the mid-2000s, the group quickly garnered attention with their relentless energy and uncompromising sound, designed to jolt the dance floors of dark electronic music clubs worldwide. With their roots firmly embedded in the underground culture, Straftanz's ethos is encapsulated by their call to "Tanzt Kaputt, Was Euch Kaputt Macht!" which translates to "Dance broken what makes you broken!", a battle cry for catharsis through rhythm and movement that resonates with their passionate fanbase.

Their discography reflects the band's ideological stance against the mainstream, with the album "Mainstream Sellout Overground" exemplifying their tendency to challenge the status quo while providing anthemic tunes for their audience. The single "Forward Ever, Backward Never" showcases Straftanz's commitment to pushing the boundaries of the industrial genre, encouraging forward-thinking and perseverance both in music and in life. The self-titled track "Straftanz" serves as an embodiment of the band's identity, punctuating their music with the same intensity and drive that they've become renowned for. Despite the lack of widespread mainstream recognition, Straftanz has carved out a considerable niche following, with fans admiring their authenticity and dedication to the art of rhythm-infused rebellion.
