The Festival In Leipzig

Leipzig!


For the past 20 years, there's been an industrial/goth/ebm music festival in Leipzig, Saxony, Germany called Wave Gotik Treffen. It's one of the most well-known festivals of the type in the world, and my girlfriend and I are going this year. I've both been wanting to go to the festival for a long time, but never had anywhere near the amount of money to do it. It's also really cool because this year is the 20th anniversary of it. The following is a running list of bands that I'm looking forward to seeing there, in order of my favorites:

  1. mind.in.a.box (Austria)
  2. Absurd Minds (Germany)
  3. Nitzer Ebb (UK)
  4. Front 242 (UK)
  5. Lustmord (USA)
  6. Camouflage (Germany)
I'm going to (here and there) update the list, as not all of the bands have confirmed yet. The complete list can be found at http://www.wave-gotik-treffen.de/english/bands.php.
