Britain's Nitzer Ebb are one of the most influential acts associated with the EBM (electronic body music) scene, as well as alternative dance in general. Since the early '80s, the group, led by enthusiastic frontman Douglas McCarthy, have produced an aggressive, visceral brand of electronic music influenced by German industrial and new wave groups like Die Krupps and D.A.F. The group remains best known for the classic "Join in the Chant," a single taken from 1987's That Total Age that became a staple of dance clubs from Ibiza to Detroit. Subsequent albums such as 1991's Ebbhead displayed more of an interest in pop songcraft, and found some success on alternative radio.
