Nitzer Ebb is a British EBM (Electronic Body Music) group that emerged in the early 1980s. Formed in Chelmsford, Essex, by vocalist Douglas McCarthy, drummer Bon Harris, and keyboard player David Gooday, the band gained notoriety for their raw and pulsating sound that combined elements of post-punk, industrial, and electronic dance music. Their relentless beats and commanding vocals became a signature that resonated with the burgeoning club scene and secured their place as a pioneering force within the industrial music genre.

Over the years, Nitzer Ebb's influence stretched beyond their initial underground following, as they released a string of potent albums throughout the late '80s and '90s. Their 1987 debut, "That Total Age," set the stage with club hits like "Murderous" and "Let Your Body Learn," delivering a confrontational sound that would become emblematic of the EBM movement. Following albums like "Belief," "Showtime," "Ebbhead," and "Big Hit," showcased the band's evolving style, incorporating more polished production while retaining their aggressive edge. After a hiatus, Nitzer Ebb returned with "Industrial Complex" in 2010, proving their enduring appeal with a matured sound that revisited and refined their classic style, cementing their status as industrial music icons.
