LP version. Forty years since their inception, and almost two decades since their last release, art-synth auteurs
Propaganda
return with a brand-new chapter in their enthralling story. This self-titled set from principal songwriting partnership
Ralf Dörper
and
Michael Mertens
embodies the depth and drama of their early work, while exploring fresh sounds and styles, and reflecting the personal and societal changes since their last outing. Conceived and crafted entirely in their native Düsseldorf, a deliberate decision to help them stay true to themselves, and featuring guest appearances from the acclaimed
Hauschka
and ascendant
Thunder Bae
, this is Propaganda at their most essential. Though an embryonic incarnation was formed by Ralf Dörper, former synthesist with electro-punks
Die Krupps
, and
Andreas Thein
in 1982, it wasn't until the addition of
Düsseldorf Symphony Orchestra
percussionist Michael Mertens that the outfit emerged as the dark synth-pop powerhouse which would see chart success as part of the ZTT machine. Upon signing with
Trevor Horn
's irreverent imprint in 1983, Propaganda, now comprised of vocalists
Claudia Bruecken
and
Susanne Freytag
alongside Dörper and Mertens, delivered their classic debut LP
A Secret Wish
and a slew of international hit singles, "Dr Mabuse," "Duel", and "P Machinery," leaving an indelible mark on the alternative scene and securing an enduring place within the pantheon of synth-dance greats. In an era of impermanence, Propaganda wanted to produce something real -- to be played from start to finish, with artwork and packaging which allows a deeper understanding of the theme of the release. Finding the perfect label to match their ambitions in Bureau B, Propaganda have delivered a third album well worth the wait.
