Influential post-punk heroes Cabaret Voltaire have announced that they'll be performing live together for the first time in 20 years.
The seminal band formed in Sheffield in 1973, and went on to become one of the most influential and prolific bands of the late 1970s, inspiring leading figures of the post-punk movement and the rising world of industrial rock and synth-pop.
It is currently unknown who is involved in the current line-up of the band, but Berlin Atonal festival have announced that they'll be hosting the band's first live performance in over two decades.
"Berlin Atonal is delighted to announce that it will host the very first Cabaret Voltaire live performance in over 20 years," they say in a statement. "Cabaret Voltaire’s blend of dance music, techno, dub, house and experimentalism made them, without a doubt, one of the most influential acts of the last 40 years. With a line up now consisting solely of machines, multi-screen projections and Richard H Kirk, the first Cabaret Voltaire performance of the 21st Century – featuring exclusively new material and no nostalgia – promises to be formidable."
