Germany (1995 – present)
(AbsuЯd) Minds is a futurepop music band from Germany.
Absurd Minds was formed in 1995 by Stefan Großmann (voice, composing) and Tilo Ladwig (composing, programming, sampling). Musically they were inspired by the EBM of the early 1990s.
Between 1995 and 1999, Absurd Minds released three CD-Rs in limited quantities, laying the groundstone for further developments by the band. After a long creative phase their first concert took place at the Dresden club, Bunker. As a result of this the band came into contact with Music Cooperation who subsequently became their management. A recording contract with the label Scanner followed in December 1999. In the meantime, Absurd Minds played in Electromania II in Liepzig. The recording for their first single, “Brainwash”, and album, Deception, began in January 2000.
In March, the band played live at the Nostromo Festival in Görlitz and opened for the Electromania III festival which was part of the Wave Gotik Treffen 2000. In December their second single, “Come Alive” appeared and in January 2001 they began recording the album Damn the Lie. During this period the band took on a third member, Timo Fischer, who till then had only played as reinforcement during live performances.

It's rather funny how this band tends to get noticed because Stefan Grossmann's vocals are purposely so similar to Peter Spilles'. That's certainly how I took notice of them many years ago. The lyrics as well as Grossmann's singing style itself are certainly distinct, though. To me their debut, Deception, is still their best album.

Some of my favourite lyrics: The three states; waking, sleeping, dreaming, in which the one's aware. The common fact: I am. The feeling's always there! Always the self, always myself, always you and there's nobody else. I am one and appear as many, I am one and appear as many. Here is the self that speaks to you, and will never fade away! Never fade away! Very Descartes-ish, I think.

@stormchasar it isn't "skinhead," but more a generic militant image--it suggests a plurality of identity i.e. individual vs agent of the collective.
