Für immer

"Fur immer" is the fourth studio album by the German electronic band Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft (DAF), released in 1982. Its title translates to "Forever" in English, introducing an element of permanence to the band's musical expression. This album continues their exploration of a stripped-down, powerful, and raw form of electronic music, representative of the Neue Deutsche Welle (New German Wave) movement that was gaining popularity in Germany at that time.

Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft, often shortened to D.A.F., is a German electropunk, Neue Deutsche Welle, and EBM group from Düsseldorf, formed in 1978. The band's core members are Gabriel "Gabi" Delgado-López and Robert Görl who are noted for their eccentric and often provocative stage persona. The group dissolved in 1983, only to reform in various configurations later on. They're known as one of the pioneers of the Electronic Body Music (EBM) and electropunk movements.

The album "Für immer" was produced by Conny Plank, a significant figure in the history of German rock and electronic music, who also worked with bands like Kraftwerk and Neu! The album was the last one recorded by the duo before they split up in 1983, marking the end of their most influential phase. Although DAF would reunite several times in the upcoming years, they wouldn't go on to release another album until 1986's "1st Step to Heaven."

Tracks in the "Für immer" album showcase the band's signature synth-driven sound, with pulsating rhythms and repetitive lyrics. Some of the notable songs in the album include "Kebab-Träume," "Im Dschungel Der Liebe," and "Der Mussolini". With their unconventional music style and theatrics, DAF has often been credited as significant influence for bands that came after them, in both the industrial and techno fields.
