Biography

Einstellung formed in 2004. In 2006 their debut album "Wings Of Desire" was released on CD on Chatterbox Records. At the same time, "Sleep Easy Mr Parker", a 28-minute, one-track CD single was released on Bearos. Both releases and their loud, heavy shows garnered them much attention (the unusually long, trance-inducing, krautrocker "Sleep Easy Mr Parker" appeared on the BBC website).^[1]

More recently "Wings Of Desire" was released on double-vinyl on Capsule Records and Einstellung now have their own label, Powerkrautrecords and a second album due imminently.
