And another one gone too soon…. Douglas McCarthy, lead vocalist of Nitzer Ebb, has died at the age of 58.

Nitzer Ebb was a mainstay for me and one of the greats of Industrial Dance. I still have my CDs of That Total Age, Belief, Showtime, and Ebbhead and have several of their tracks on playlists. Too many losses lately. Sigh….

Very sad. Saw them live around 90-91.

this one stung for me, huge influence as a musician and getting to chance to work with him was on my bucket list

I remember seeing them open for depeche mode at dodger stadium in like 1990 and they were TERRIBLE. I don't know if it was the acoustics (dmode sounded great) or their sound setup or what but it was hard to sit through. I like their recorded stuff, sad to see another band member from our time go. (also rip brian wilson!)

Terrible, I recall he’s been sick for a long time. He didn’t look well in the last live video I watched. So long Lightning Man.
