According to Aussie music website Undercover Kraftwerk stole the show at this year’s Big Day Out. Describing the electro innovator’s set Undercover’s reviewer tells us: “Their performance was startling and it is hard to know why. It's certainly not the lyrics. It can't be the musicianship. These are just four guys standing in front of computers. It certainly isn't their look. Four guys in their mid 50s. So it must be their innovation. Their Big Day Out set was short but didn't leave out anything. The highlight was certainly the complete version of 'Autobahn'. It was compelling”.
Kraftwerk, meanwhile, have confirmed they will release a new album this year, a follow up to 1999's 'Expo 2000', a limited release that didn’t get much attention outside of Germany.
