From Loudersound.
Kraftwerk head back on the road this summer in celebration of their 50th anniversary. The German troupe have announced a series of 3-D concerts, including new shows in North America.
The multimedia project was started in 1970 by Ralf Hutter and Florian Schneider, and by the mid-1970s, Kraftwerk had achieved international recognition for their revolutionary electronic‚ soundscapes and their musical experimentation with robotics and synthesisers. Their compositions have had a major international influence across an entire range of music genres from electro to hip-hop, and techno to synthpop.
Tickets for the North American dates go on sale on February 27.

Saw Kraftwerk a few years ago in Vegas. The video above reminds me how fun the show was! They did an amazing 3D arrival with a UFO that stunned everyone in the place. I remember the robots were cool to. Definitely a show to see!
