FRONT 242 - NEVER STOP

[gabriel338lapua]

1993 moore theater seattle. one of the best shows of my life. NEVER STOP!

[usnavysss]

SPEED IS REALITY

[theabcsofstds]

found this awesome jacket from the thrift store, felt all cool and oldschool rivety wearing it, got home and realized it was Miley Cirus brand...... awe. but now i need a pair of aviators to match just like them!

[Chimmyt2]

Vanguards of unholy awesomeness!

[MrAgbxl]

no waaaaaaaaayyyy

[openuniverse2003]

FRONT 242 = GODS! NEVER STOP! NEVER STOP!

[Elevatorhead05]

Today I'm cruising in the town, and looks really EBM-ish, as usually I looks. Vintage leather biker jacket, fingerless gloves, aviator sunglasses. Just keep alive the style for ever, and save the tradicions.

[Inchebato]

Bélgica es una mierda, Holanda es la onda.

[djkasti]

@Inchebato Belgica en la decada 80 90 principios fue la madre del mejor tecnho, Ebm industrial y new beat. Belgium respect. en esa epoca belgica le pegaba mil patadas a holanda

[MrSrbato]

@djkasti Yo me refiero a la gente, al país, no a la música. Conozco los dos paises y prefiero mil veces a Holanda.

[djkasti]

@MrSrbato a vale amigo disculpa, pues no puedo opinar en ese sentido yo. pero creo que como en todos los lados hay de todo

[MrSrbato]

@djkasti Sí, está mal generalizar, pero que más da, no me cae ese país... aunque Front 242 sí me gusta.

[grathapilot]

AMERIKUH! AMERIKUH!

DERP DERP DERP

[pinkpuppy1984]

Viva la Belgie! LOL

[antiprosynthesis]

Front 242 comes from Belgium actually. Not Germany at all.

[wherewildthings]

@antiprosynthesis actually they are belgins of german desent

[antiprosynthesis]

@wherewildthings Nope. Perhaps Dirk Bergen, which is actually F242's manager. The rest are definitely Belgian surnames.

[steen242]

@wherewildthings Let's leave it with Belgians! They 're coming from Aarschot by Leuven which has nothing to do with Germany!

[stardutch]

front 242 is coming from Germany ,not Englisch

[elduce77]

the best man dance, he dance outstanding...

[Miguel041973]

BESTIAL !!!

[cockdj]

Unicos,Magistrales,Genuinos,In­imitables

UN HITO EN LA HISTORIA DE LA MUSICA ELECTRONICA

[Pergiacomo]

The benchmark of the EBM, listen at those orgasmic beats and samples, perfect.

[sagie1234]

Do u think that JeanLuc is actually playing that roland d50??? also when did they filim this? early eighties i presume...;-)

[TexasLibra]

More like late 80s considering the single of this song wasn't released until 1988...

[bitepoilcouille]

probably the first song of them I heard, back in those times. What a shock !

really changed the way I considered music

[HarryUpHarry]

I like F242 but he's such a Koont

[HarryUpHarry]

I retract then: he's only semi-koont ;)

[deezacharo]

supe mega!!

[Krombacherkind]

Super Song

[hayuga104]

ahhh los padres del EBM-INDUSTRIAL.... AHUEVOOOO

ES LA ROLA QUE MAS ME LATE Y OPERATING TRACKS

[metramil]

vaya caña

esto es la OSTIA PUTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[warjunky444]

aw... I miss their old look.

I mean I dont mind them now, but I love the extreme, factory uniform, welding glasses combo...

[HarryUpHarry]

And the big industrial gloves? Do you have a fetish?

[warjunky444]

Only for wearing them! lol, I do at every given opportunity, despite the looks I get on the street!

although I find chicks wearing them zuper-zexy!

but then again, female industrial fans in these parts are hard to come by.

and as for him being a Koont, I met Front 242 the other week at the after party for their Dublin gig? Awesome guys, all of them, really sound!

Their english? well, a bit dodgey in parts, but I was able to hold a good conversation with them.

[NephilimOfMoonLighT]

best song..great video

[gothic1hobbit]

Correction. Throbbing Gristle started the whole industrial genre. Kraftwerk were just general electronica. Front 242 are a fusion of both styles. That's when EBM was born. Aka Industrial Techno.

[exactspace]

uh... Psychic TV? hello???  maybe you should do some research before you spread misinformation...!

[gothic1hobbit]

Psychic TV... they came AFTER Throbbing Gristle didn't they ? I rest my case.

[2yearoldsmoker]

dont forget about Thrill Kill Kult

[lundholmproduction]

All this from this genre has it´s inspiration in Kraftwerk because they did this kind of music in the late 60:es.

[steen242]

@lundholmproduction 70ties you mean offcourse!

[cassette9000]

Este tema es lo máximo, cada vez que voy a la Blondie lo bailo :)

[synthetik23]

Sometimes I wish it were 1987-1989 all over again.

[seewaage]

I know, wasn't it incredible?

[deepaintpish]

Its no surprise dance music came from these early electronic music's e.g. EBM, Italo, Post-Punk, Disco & electro.

[kozi83]

go fuck your mom somewhere else and shut the fuck up, homophobic piece of shit.

[kozi83]

this was to "thoromicina"

[libraluis68]

HA HA HA HA H YOU ARE HILAROUS . . .

[AlienZygote010]

i listen to goth and industrial. i am also a former us army ranger. and i am more of a man than your weak ass will ever be.

[keeperofthecheese]

The internet is harder than you, bigger than you and will outlive you too. So stop bragging.

[AlienZygote010]

actually, you dumb fuck. i was not bragging. I don't go around bragging about myself. i was replying to a stupid ass who said that only faggots and fake men listen to this music. i dunno. maybe you kinda prove his point.

[keeperofthecheese]

chill out on the steroids foolio. You say "im a former ranger, and More OF A MAN"... yeah thats not bragging.

Jesus, i hope this music attracts cool people too. Not just inferiority complex items like yourself..

[AlienZygote010]

no, i was not bragging. i was simply putting a piece of shit homophobe judgmental redneck in his place. i have no inferiority complex. i am not a chest thumping moron. you are just butting your ignorant fucking nose into the a comment that was not meant for you and taking out of context. mind your own fucking business.

[TimFreh]

Wow, great song! Stunning!

5 stars and a favorite ;)

[ThePoisonDoor]

Wow so fucking good!

[filipek]

maybe they're only "gay" in your own head, because thats all you think about

lolol

this beat is hard as fuck :P

[lagom242]

hey guys, I definitely know what you mean about Nitzer Ebb having really sexual lyrics... as far as I can remember, there was never any gender associated with "slip into your open mouth" etc. I know DAF was pretty homoerotic... Front 242's only song that could be construed as having homosexual content would maybe be "Masterhit..." but again, I don't seem to remember any gender being associated?

Maybe you can clarify, natesot.

[cfcsvanberg]

What about "Body To Body"? Pretty hot stuff.

[cfcsvanberg]

Ack! That was supposed to be a response to lagom242. Not sure what happened there. Another Front 242 song which could be considered to be "homoerotic" would of course be "Headhunter". Catch the man, indeed.

[lagom242]

Body to Body is definitely sexual, but is there anything in it to suggest homoeroticism?

And Headhunter is about working in the insurance industry and trying to bait new hires. Patrick Codenys worked in that field, I believe.

[t1201971]

cfcsvanberg- "Headhunter" was about... (wait for it) ...headhunters! Corporate headhunters who hire employees away from competitors. With a military motif for sure- it is Zwei Vier Zwei after all...

[cfcsvanberg]

I know what a headhunter is and I know the song isn't "about" being gay. I'm just saying that it can be interpreted that way. Most songs can be twisted around to be about anything if you try hard enough. Headhunter just doesn't take that much effort.

[MrUberpink]

homoerotic? ya maybe, well, nothing is better than some real manluv to the mind (!only cuddling and tender mind treatment ofcoz) this music OWNS every shit out there. Many genres of music would not be the same without these men

[sagie1234]

thanks filipek.. finally somebody agrees.. fuck all that shit.. who cares.. 242 kicks ass forever.. they are like spacey cosmos shit fucking rocks! 242 makes legend status tracks

[natesot]

i love how all these bands like netzer ebb front 242 etc.. had this hard homo side to them. i kn9ow you will all cry but its true. 242 lyrics were very male male sex.

[sagie1234]

haha "hard homo" that's funny! :)

i try not to perceive 242 in that way it grosses me out. why do they seem gay? can u explain?

[natesot]

a friend of mine slept with Richard 23 so fuck off biggot!

[sagie1234]

No dude you're getting me wrong i dont have any issues with gays or lesbians in fact im totally proud of lesbian punk rock sister :)

i was just suprised to hear that comment and is that last reponse you made, is it true?

-Sage (no homophobia here man)

[depechemode242mecano]

un habrazo fuerte a este grupo el mejor de la ebm music saludos de japon julio

[815oceanic815]

When I did my first Ironman, I had this song playing through my head almost the entire time...whenever I thought I was getting weak or tired (or both), I would just start chanting, "NEVER STOP! NEVER STOP!!!"...I think people thought I was crazy, but I really give a lot of credit to Front242 for getting me through the most grueling experience of my life....

[FaustTeufel]

I saw them in concert at the "Visage" night club in Florida back in the days.I also

saw Front Line Assembly there too.

[presix6]

gods

[gothic1hobbit]

the masters of ebm !

[vroammm]

i love these group

[vroammm]

I Love the 80's electronic music

[noahmowsen]

Richard23,genial,como siempre,quien sepa apreciar el techno,comprenderá el sentido y la forma en la que front 242 realizan su musica,extraordinarios a mi entender.

[dabracan]

i never forget the 90"snitzer ebb die krupps front 242 the best ebm band ever

[HansReichStag]

c est de l art

[MIGUELSAGITTA]

buena cancion tiene una mezcla de Nitzer Ebb e Information Society,pero en fin buenisima.

[kacarinm]

No te detengas,Fui a un presentacion en guadalajara mexico, si vale la pena verlos en vivo

[gothic1hobbit]

I could listen to this on repeat :)

[Acidmarx]

[belgboyke242]

[FetidToecheese]

brilliant

[tsenkai]

[AthenaWiggin]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaah!!!!!

[perezhpl]

Vamos que me subo al techo!!!como bailaba este

temazo aya por 1990.

[KeMoniito]

Actually hey are from the 80's. the 90's sucked big time and there was nothing as good as this in that shitty 'grunge' "alternative" faggy decade.☺

[ebmfetisch]

Couldnt agree more. I never could understand why people would stop brushing their teeth and dream about rain in the Pacific Northwest.

[rivotrich7]

Tight Rhythms!

[elduce77]

he's dance is awesome

[firebomber8]

we have a nation we have control sweet as reality we dedicate....

[richard232323]

we have ignition, we have control, speed is reality, we've got the kick ...start!

can't u c , don't u feel it will never stop

with no support, but strong conviction, another step ahead, we handle the game.

can't u c, don't u feel it will never stop

repeat the moves again, non stop, assure u at the end to reach the top!

it will never stop!

[ABTE67]

a great group of techno electronic history

[Myscantonic]

Its no techno its electronic body music short EBM. Just for the records.

[bslack07]

This is as industrial as it gets. Same time Ministry, KMFDM, Thrill Kill Kult and all the industrial sampling bands where coming out. New Order, Depeche Mode and yaz, these where electronic.

[815oceanic815]

You're absolutely right, when you look up "industrial Music" in the dictionary/encyclopedia you will find just a huge picture of these guys in their full military garb! They're the pioneers and that is why I still enjoy their music.

[mariano420]

the kitchen never stop

[valeriusvodka]

wow....excelente video hace un rato q no lo veia, desde q el elektronik body music fue rey....

[bauhausx28]

lo mejor de lo mejor del ebm

[swen242]

No Comment !!!

[cakegoca]

front 242 los mejores del globor

[dendrite007]

I know one of them stopped to raise a family....

[HeatherDuke]

None of them are gay, I met them backstage in Los Angeles(on their roots tour) with their wives and Richard took a girl in the backroom, probably to satisfy himself.

[audiotactix]

hey guess what i love front242, i was just commenting on how they 'seemed' when i met them like 20 years ago.

i dont care either way, i still like their music...why do you guys care so much?

[killab83]

BAD-ASS! =)

[DivaXMachina]

true pioneers of electronic/industrial

[cincin3]

these guys do ROCK! Where R they Now... We need this stuff back.

[SulumorDNA]

they have a new album out ... daniel b, patrick c, jean luc d and richard j ...

[cincin3]

thanks bros, good news....... for me,,,, u take care there

[rivotrich7]

Way to keep the beat 242!!

[windigoneurosis]

It's so ridiculous people still use those words as aggresive language

[alanbyond]

this is one of the last track from FRONT that I really like.

[u2boyu2]

some people see homoeroticism in EVERYthing, just enjoy this for what it really is, awesome tunes!

[cragogre]

I've always loved F242 and Never Stop is also a favourite of mine. It doesn't sound dated at all. Excellent.

[clockwork11]

Still my favorite F242 song, and one of my top ten fave songs; even 15 years after I first heard it.

[o0ze]

could you repeat that pls?

[kemonito1]

there is nothing gay or 'homo' about FRONT242. their music has an agressive, very mean and sophisticated,fast phased sound that makes them sound heavier and more masculine than any heavy metal rock band. (and they only use synths)☺

[peace0ff]

try the kashagoogoo vids for more appropriate homo comments, loser.

[natesot]

lol kashagoogoo arnt gay which is funny the guys that acted faggy are not the gay ones.

[ostenolamon]

They are different, that is something they share with many gay persons.

[peace0ff]

homo erotic?? they're not even close to being homos. why must you project your personal faggotry issues on the band? i've followed them since day one and 3/4 of them are married and have kids. 2 not married but have children. i.e. they fucked women.

[audiotactix]

really, when i met them in the late 80s they sure seemed homosexual to me.

it actually kind of killed my image of them.

[peace0ff]

you fucking idiot. how the fuck does one "seem homosexual"?

you're just projecting your personal faggotry problems again. btw don't even begin to tell me you think r23 is gay because his voice isn't as deep as lucs or some stupid shit like that because on the 242 biography vid, the computer prinout says r23 is interested in girls.

since last time i replied, patrick has had yet another child.

[peace0ff]

i just noticed you're into noise music. noise seems to have a lot of enraged gay people in their. boyd rice for instance. funny stuff

[1987blaze1987]

Boyd Rice isn't gay. You suck..

[peace0ff]

that's not what his bio says

[natesot]

"Boyd Rice isnt gay" you say that because what your in his head. lol you doint know shit. And dont give me "hes married" ive fucked allot of married guys. lol your sad that allot of gay guys are in the industrial scene ha ha if you cant take it get out.

[mididoctors]

they are a tad homo erotic IMO but so the f**king what.. the real problem is they got fat and old which on stage is well ridiculous if your doing this "macho thing"

greatl band though

[1alopezpr]

Is not that look so camp,is that times unfortunetly have change,but like Bob Marley,somethings got imortalized in our hearts,and in the case of Front 242,they will always be one of my favorite EBM Bands of the 80's!!!!!

[ajwatson]

i loved this at the time - but looking back, it was so camp!

[SpaceIntruderDetecto]

The U men at thier best! NEVER STOP!!

[kiint]

this video rocks, due in nos mall part to the good live video edit

[Absinthus]

kick-ass

[bettyx1138]

i love these dudes.
