Palais Schaumburg

Palais Schaumburg was a German post-punk/electronic-pop band that has since become known as the launching pad for noted underground figures such as Holger Hiller, Thomas Fehlmann, F.M. Einheit, and Mortiz von Oswald. The Hamburg-based band debuted in 1981 with Das Single Kabinett, a six-song EP on ZickZack. They released their first full-length album, Palais Schaumburg, the following year on Kamera. After its release, Hiller defected for a solo career. The band quickly got to work on the LP Lupa, which was released later in 1982 through the German branch of the Phonogram label...
