German EBM act Endzustand premiered the single and accompanying music video for “Maschinenangst” on July 3, 2026, released through Echozone. The track serves as the opening single from their forthcoming album “Macht Gesellschaft” and explores themes of artificial intelligence, social networks, and technological control through aggressive, pounding electronic body music rhythms. The project, led by Ralf Rönckendorf alongside drummer Rudi, draws stylistic influence from 1980s EBM pioneers including Nitzer Ebb, Die Krupps, and DAF. Rönckendorf, a former German soldier who lost his eyesight and three comrades in a 2010 Afghanistan deployment, built Endzustand around classic electronic body music aesthetics. Previously, the project released the album “Werk des Krieges” in 2020 and the “Roter Freitag” EP in 2021, both via Echozone.
