    NITZER EBB
    1982-2010
    THE BOX SET

    This career spanning retrospective box marks the first time that all five of the band’s albums for Geffen/Mute have been collected in one complete box set. The box set features expanded double black vinyl of each album (10 vinyl LPs in all), with several bonus tracks and hard to find 12” mixes – all carefully curated and remastered by Pylon Records. The original artwork has also been expanded into gatefold sleeves, with embossing and spot UV finish. It also contains a large size booklet with liner notes by the band’s co-founders Douglas McCarthy and Bon Harris, along with unseen photos, flyers and artwork, detailing their entire career in chronological order from Essex to Los Angeles. These albums have been out-of-print since the early ’90s and have never been reissued prior to this.

    The actual two-piece box is made of hard board stock, wrapped with leather paper and the UV design is hot foiled stamped. The box also has accommodated extra space inside for their first self-released album, Basic Pain Procedure, from 1983 and their last release, Industrial Complex, from 2010, to complete the collection by the fans, as these titles have been in print in recent years.

    There will be a limited colored vinyl edition of the box, which will also include a re-press of the band’s debut album, Basic Pain Procedure, available only from the Pylon Records website for a short period of time. The Industrial Complex vinyl has been in print in the last several years on colored vinyl, and easily attainable on many online and fine record stores around the world.

    Nitzer Ebb 1982-2010: The Box Set will be available on October 5th via Pylon Records.

    Douglas McCarthy and Bon Harris return to reunite Nitzer Ebb after taking a hiatus in 2010. The band has announced that they’ll be performing next summer at Amphi Festival, Cologne, Germany on July 20 2019. McCarthy and Harris will be joined onstage by original founding NEP members David Gooday and Simon Granger. This will mark the first time these four founding members have performed live together since 1987. Additional dates featuring this expanded lineup will be announced in the coming months.

  • WHAT CRITICS HAVE SAID ABOUT NITZER EBB / 1982-2010: THE BOX SET

    • “Staggeringly impressive and influential. The remasters are botton end-heavy and all, bar the debut, benefit from the 2-LP treatment.” Nige Allen, RECORD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE

    • “A luxurious remastering by LA’s Pylon imprint. Nitzer Ebb’s impact on the darker avenues of electronic music may be easily overlooked compared to Depeche Mode or Nine Inch Nails, but, as heard here, it remains just as significant.” – Mat Smith, ELECTRONIC SOUND

    • [Four stars!] “Aficionados of these underrated electro-pioneers will find much to love in this near-definitive 11-LP vinyl boxset.” – Ian Gittins, CLASSIC POP MAGAZINE

    • “The English group have been cranking out slab after slab of propulsive, smashing industrial-punk for 36 years, deftly merging the thumping beat of dance music with the harder edge and venomous political bite of the harder genres.” – PUNK NEWS

    • “Over the past thirty years, Nitzer Ebb have been key players in revolutionizing the worlds of EBM and industrial. Their influence is profound: everyone from veterans like Nine Inch Nails to new-school powerhouses Youth Code owe a debt to the British act.” John Hill, REVOLVER MAGAZINE

    • “The intention of this 10 disc set was to bring back into circulation the five long out of print albums that Nitzer Ebb released on Mute Records between 1987 and 1994, a period that saw them evolve from a minimalist assault into more fleshed out even symphonic sound. Pylon sweetens the deal by stretching the records out to double-LPs, rounding them out with a selection of remixes from the era. And each one boasts some lovely glossy packaging that adds grace notes to the original artwork like embossed lettering and overlays that reveals added details. The pressings are equally well-considered. The balance of the treble-heavy throb of the synths and the snarling thud of the percussion is just about perfect.” – Robert Ham . PASTE MAGAZINE

    • [4 stars!] “The interesting thing about box sets, such as this, is that it shows the development of a band. Nitzer Ebb is a heavy electronic dance band, that have their roots in industrial music. They are also pioneers in this genre. They were always years ahead of others and several bands feel in line behind them. This set demonstrates why they were so influential, from their beginning. On the surface it sounds like angry, electronic music. But Nitzer Ebb have always been more, much more.
      The packaging for 1982 – 2010 Box Set is outstanding, with the core members of Nitzer Ebb contributing to the beautiful and extensive liner notes. A great deal of thought was put into this release, and it shows. The albums have their original sleeves and packaging and the remasters sound great. This is a great set for new and old fans.” – SPILL MAGAZINE

    • “Hear Nitzter Ebb grow from minimalist synth pioneers to complex dark songwriters in one show here.” – THE BIG TAKEOVER
