OH MY GOD! Thank you for listening to my upload! For sure one of my favorite tracks from them, your lyrics are what really drew me into this song. Fantastic!
The words seem to fit the sound so well, but I’m having a hard time to decipher them. Could you give me a small hint on what the meaning behind them was?
@@spacefertilizer Thank you Marcus. Jean-Luc and I worked together as he provided me with the first basic composition of sounds/rhythm, and then asked me to compose the lyrics to go with the music. I have my written workings somewhere in the house, showing every change, every line! and which shows how the lyrics were formed. Anyway, once I heard the first sounds/music, I immediately heard/saw something sinking/dying/sad. This is a story about a submarine sadly slowly sinking, and all those on board not surviving...hope this helps a little.

Probably my favourite Front 242 song because of the imagery it evokes. "We will always be dismembered", is a chilling line that always stood out. The defeated, mystical tone of acceptance in the guy's voice saying it as the other voices fade out to focus on the lead line and drum beat. It's as if though he knows he'll soon find release from the suffocating nightmare and duty, but that will mean death. Painful, brutal death. Just gives me this vision of a load of faceless corpses being pulverised / mangled from the pressure in the submarine as it plunges deeper into the murky dark depths of watery hell.
This is the first 242 Song I ever listened to. I got a mixtape from a friend without any track list and the intensity of the song blew me away. However, it drove me crazy as nobody knew the song and who performed it. Plus, there was no Shazam in the late 80s either. At one point, somebody told me that "Don't crash" was a Ministry song, so I started to listen to their albums in the record store. It took me months to finally discover that this was a song by Front 242. What moment of triumph that was. It is still one of my favorite songs of all times.
This is definitely one of my favorites from them for sure and I'm pretty sure it was the first 242 song I heard as well. I was fortunate one of the clubs I used to go to played this and a friend of mine knew who this was. Definitely sparked a long time love affair with their music. Thanks for listening and the great comment
The sparse & "sparkly" crackling early synth stuff like this & mid 70s Kraftwerk doesn't age if u ask me & u didn't. I think it sounds more real than the newer more advanced synths.
I experienced them live first on the Tyranny for You-tour and right after Covid. Both here in Gothenburg. Only Laibach has come close to the experience!
The panning between the speakers, space between sound and precision with thought and provoking words. Throughout the decades, this one gets called up and revisited far more than most :)
I wouldn't say simplicity, Daniel B. had a custom sw sequencer made, because he wanted to change oscillator shape per note, which retail sequencers at the time couldn't do, even though the synths were capable of it. So, while the music might sound simple to someone, the ways to achieve the sound weren't. What i can do now with a click of a mouse button, required a full custom SW suite and cc/sysex programming in the 80s. :-)
it's hard for me to describe how grateful i'm to front 242 for releasing this masterpiece exactly like this. If my soul could only take 10 songs to death, for all eternity, this one was one of them

This song is hard to describe how good it is. My love for it started with being in my local record store and listening to Depeche Mode on headphones as they did at the time when the clerk said - Have you heard the Front 242 group? I bought this record and then I was stuck it was 34 years ago.
Front does the EBM in such agresive and addictive mode. Once on it, is for lifetime. Mighty psychodelic for people who feels a bit better in dark. What an beautiful conception .
that buzzsaw grindin FM drone w/bounce bass.. and then that change up with the arp and hi-pitch thick octave sample bed.. that soldier on-like vocal -- so great.. loved it back in late 80s and love it now even more in '20s.. come on they even nail'd the Album cover art ... close up on the CRT ... with thick helvetica badass
just found it this morning, have listened 11 times in a row so far 😳 its hard to believe its from ‘85. All I remember in that year is the He-Man and Rainbow Brite theme haha. I love it, I must find more 80’s Front 242!!!

Actually, I've just blasted this out on my monitors (Pro-Ac Tablette 2000), the same ones 242 use and it blew my mind. The depth and clarity of this mix is exemplified in this recording from vinyl.
Thanks for posting this version. It's so hard to find, as almost anything in F242's catalogue that's been released after this version came out features the version with more remix work. Don't get me wrong -- I like the more accessible 're-mixed' recording as well, but the one posted here has a cleaner sound and has all the depth and feel of the more accessible version without resorting to more studio mixing effects.
Yeah, I know there are some different mixes of this song that was released, even with the original releases there were some that were different. Thanks for listening, I'm glad you enjoyed it
This is a fantastic representation and delivery of a great song. The micro of the cartridge on vinyl is sweet! I was in a 242 frame of mind.... and , BAM!

@@horizonbrave1533 Yeah, I wonder too. I read someone say that it was inspired by the film "Das Boot" about being on a submarine during WW II. Not sure if that's true or not though.
@@CuttoothsRoom I always interpreted it as being about soldiers on drugs/steroids to enhance their performance (a common practice in WW2 and Vietnam) and the "Don't Crash" is referring to how they should keep the rage going so the drugs don't wear off but they do and then the soldiers realize the damage done to their bodies and the lives they've taken away
Cuttooth's Room interesting! also one of the 1st 242 songs I heard in a short lived niteclub in Melbourne, Florida called Altered States. I went there one night and I was 18, this was 1990, so I was backtracking a bit. didn't start listening to industrial until 1989-1990. before that was Smiths, Cure, Dead Kennedys, Erasure, Depeche Mode, PSB.. etc. then I got into the more darker stuff goth and Industrial. They also played Sisters Of Mercy's "Marian" that night in the club and then I fell in love with them as well as Front 242 that night
Definitely some good memories from back then, right? I'm not sure which club I first heard them at, it was either Pink Cadillac or Wave Waikiki, both great clubs. All those bands II used listen to a lot, I was heavily into goth and industrial as well as the mod scene back then. I just wish I had my Sisters of Mercy vinyl still, but happily still have all my Dead Can Dance albums.
Cuttooth's Room I discovered DCD later, around 1992, and searched *in vain* (LOL) for their LPs, but at that time (maybe closer to '94) only found their new album "Into The Labyrinth", then to my surprise, as I'm sure you know, they at that time re-released ALL their early 4ad releases. lucky you for having the vinyl tho. *And where are the clubs u r talking about??*
Yes. I really like this MC cartridge. It has much more dynamic range than my at440mlb does. Thanks for listening and for the info on the differences between them.

I’m curious about your record player, it looks nice 👍 Also thanks for sharing, it allows current and future Generations to discover the wonders that is _FRONT 242_
Thanks for listening and commenting! This turntable is an MCS 6700. It was JC Penney's inhouse brand and manufactured by Technics. It's the sister turntable to the Technics SL-1950 with Hitachi knobs.
Mоviе: Берег (1983) Асtоr: Vladimir Gostyukhin This is a two-part film. It can be found online (ivi dat ru). But I don't think you will find it with English subtitles. This is a scene from the second part. His comrade did not want to shoot the Hitler Youth. Because they are children. And went out with a white flag. And the kids shot him. The Soviet army opened fire and eventually the German detachment surrendered. They found an adult SS man among the teenagers. They took him out and shot him (this is a shot of the shooting scene). I watched only one film in which this actor played. The film was called "Ascent"("Восхождение" 1976). This movie is on TH-cam with English subtitles. Pretty good movie. Also about the Great Patriotic War (Eastern Front of World War II). About the moral dilemmas that a person faces if he wants to survive in captivity by the Nazis. Sorry(an) for my English
I definitely hear ya. I wanted to mount the screws in the other direction but problem was the nuts that this cartridge came with (those big ones you see) wouldn't fit underneath so I had to mount it opposite. Strangely the instructions the cartridge came with also said to mount in this direction. It's on a different headshell now and I have proper smaller nuts so can have the screws in the other direction. Thanks for taking a listen, though and the comment as well.
Since 1982, the same depressing sounds, the same lousy beer, the same existential angsts. The times, they couldn't be better. Just keep those sharp objects off the desk.

You discovered another great industrial band even if they were wrong
@@stefanoartuso001 Very true, a classic win-win
was one of my dfirst Singles I bought in the 80 wonderfull times!

80s industrial jams don’t get better than this.
242 is by my opinion a band with the best beats ever, this sound is just a perfection in simplicity . Daddys of Dark electronica.
Awebo, los padres de la electrónica oscura, me encanta la atmósfera que crean, terror, paranoia, ansiedad, carajo, saludos desde la CDMX...
Bud Spencer Jr INDEED! This is one of my favorite jams!
I wouldn't say simplicity, Daniel B. had a custom sw sequencer made, because he wanted to change oscillator shape per note, which retail sequencers at the time couldn't do, even though the synths were capable of it.

Check out their first album, Geography. A total gem!
They have solid albums. Geography is their first release. I have the LP. It is excellent.
There is a better version with female vocals included.
Oh my, eighties memories! In full puberty crisis back then in Belgium and listening to esoteric music like this. Great song.

Don’t Crash Lyrics
Days of no horizon
Claustrophobia
Conditioned air
Don't crash - no flowers for you
Don't crash - no regrets
Gushing waters
Forcing it down
Days stars final flicker urging on the break of dawn
Stand fast - voices screech below
Stand fast - no clemency
Panic stricken faces
Diving further down into hell
Don't crash - no flowers for you
Don't crash - no regrets
Timeless terror is taking over
Throbbing hearts and restless bones - melted into one
Stand fast - voices screech below
Stand fast - no clemency
Breath slowly fading
Partly anger - partly stress
Stand fast - air is sparse below
Stand fast - no clemency
Been detected
Losing power
Deeper down we grovel on our sweating bending knees
Don't crash - no flowers for you
Don't crash - no regrets
Last moment cries on the radio
It's so hot down here
Crushing metal bloody waters
Same faces everywhere
Now the anger is fading
Now the fight can't go on
We'll always be remembered
We'll always be dismembered
Days of no horizon...
Read the newest comment at the top of the general thread- the lyricist explains some meaning and process
Music is Life.
Life without Music is not life at all.
Life is nothing without Music!
And this one makes life more worth living....
“The moment of terror is the beginning of life.”

ONE OF THE 50 MOST IMPORTANT SONGS OF MY LIFE : ## FRONT 242 - Don't Crash##
Ahhh yeah. 242 really made a big impact on me.
One of the greatest bands ever. THIS is mid-80s Belgian industrial.
Yep, absolutely! Thanks for listening and commenting.
Actually, I've just blasted this out on my monitors (Pro-Ac Tablette 2000), the same ones 242 use and it blew my mind. The depth and clarity of this mix is exemplified in this recording from vinyl.
Ahhh cool! I wish I could blast this in my apartment but unfortunately my neighbors would not approve. hehe. Thanks for listening and commenting.
Call it heresy, but "No Shuffle" from "rewind" is IMHO the best version I've heard, so far!
Love this song. Only just discovered! Lots of catching up to do...
Thank you for taking the time to capture such a great video/quality of this!
I’m really glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for listening!
My favorite song by them!!!
i like these Belg Group , Front 242 for ever !!
WOOF...a heavy tune of my youth, massive reflection and introspect in this one. thank you for the quality rip
I'm really glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for listening.
This sounds absolutely devastating in a set of M-Audio monitors or a set of AKG cans...
I bet it does! Thanks for listening!
why wasn't this song in Pretty in Pink
And big thanks to E-mu Systems Inc.
242 wouldnt sound like they sound without the E2 and Drumulator
Yeah, that's for sure! Thanks for listening and commenting.
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

this song was my introduction to front 242 :) good times
Le plus beau cadeau de la Belgique !

I've never noticed the bubbles sound, I'll definitely have to listen for it. Thanks for listening
EBM at its best.
I definitely agree. Thanks for listening.
I’m curious about your record player, it looks nice 👍
Also thanks for sharing, it allows current and future Generations to discover the wonders that is _FRONT 242_
Thanks for listening and commenting! This turntable is an MCS 6700. It was JC Penney's inhouse brand and manufactured by Technics. It's the sister turntable to the Technics SL-1950 with Hitachi knobs.
Have a lovely EBM day everyone
I've always wanted to know where the cover image of a Soviet soldier firing a Ppsh41 came from.
Yeah, me too. They've had a lot of really interesting covers for their releases.
Isnt it from Steiner?
@@henryotis1209 It may be. One of my favorite movies.
@@BCADws I am thinking Soviet not sure what movie.
Mоviе: Берег (1983)
Асtоr: Vladimir Gostyukhin
This is a two-part film. It can be found online (ivi dat ru). But I don't think you will find it with English subtitles.
This is a scene from the second part. His comrade did not want to shoot the Hitler Youth. Because they are children. And went out with a white flag. And the kids shot him. The Soviet army opened fire and eventually the German detachment surrendered. They found an adult SS man among the teenagers. They took him out and shot him (this is a shot of the shooting scene).
I watched only one film in which this actor played. The film was called "Ascent"("Восхождение" 1976). This movie is on TH-cam with English subtitles.
Pretty good movie. Also about the Great Patriotic War (Eastern Front of World War II). About the moral dilemmas that a person faces if he wants to survive in captivity by the Nazis.
Sorry(an) for my English
Good Sound!
Thank you Tubaal. I'm glad you liked it.
Fucking classic
I absolutely agree! Thanks for listening Mark
Ugh, my 80's OCD is killing me seeing the cartridge mounting screws installed upside down.
I definitely hear ya. I wanted to mount the screws in the other direction but problem was the nuts that this cartridge came with (those big ones you see) wouldn't fit underneath so I had to mount it opposite. Strangely the instructions the cartridge came with also said to mount in this direction.
It's on a different headshell now and I have proper smaller nuts so can have the screws in the other direction. Thanks for taking a listen, though and the comment as well.
Sensacional!!!!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Since 1982, the same depressing sounds, the same lousy beer, the same existential angsts. The times, they couldn't be better. Just keep those sharp objects off the desk.
