Before there was the Klinik, before Dirk went solo with Dive and Eric formed
Insekt, there was Absolute Body Control. The band name itself evokes bad Nitzer
Ebb nightmares of the european EBM movement of the early eighties. ABC was one
of the first electro bands to break away from the trendy euro-pop and add a
distinct razor edge to it's music. It also provides an excellent insight into
the early musical career of the men responsible for much of the european
electro movement being what it is today. With such bands as The Klinik, Dive,
Orange Sector, & Insekt derived as the end product of the early work in ABC you
can't help but feel akin to the music and ignore the dated sound. Definitely
something for the nostalgic electro crowd to add to their collection.
