BUREAU B (GERMANY)

Der Plan is a German music group that was founded in 1979 by Frank Fenstermacher, Moritz R, Robert Görl, and Chrislo Haas. After their first release, Görl and Haas left the group and were replaced by Kurt Dahlke. This trio remained constant until the band disbanded in 1993.
In 2004, Moritz R reformed Der Plan with new members Achim Treu and J.J. Jones. The band reunited again in January 2014 for two short sets at Andreas Dorau's 50th birthday parties in Hamburg and Berlin, featuring Frank Fenstermacher, Moritz R, and Kurt Dahlke.
In May 2017, Der Plan released a new single titled "Lass die Katze stehn" followed by the album "Unkapitulierbar" in June of the same year.

New Wave / Post Punk

Moritz R(R), Kurt Dahlke aka Pyrolator, and Frank Fenstermacher have met in the studio after 25 years and recorded a new album. One can claim that Der Plan was one of the most powerful German bands during the time of musical departure at the beginning of the 1980s. Der Plan was always more than a band: a kind of three-headed Renaissance man, for whom visual art was just as important as music. Der Plan 2017 is no longer so angular and swings better, but the music still sounds psychedelic: mild and sunny, as in "Es Heisst Die Sonne", "Come Fly With Me", or "Was Kostet Der Austritt", or dark and eerie on "Ich Kann Die Stille Hören" and "Gesicht Ohne Buch". There is a kind of electronic shanty — "Wie Der Wind Weht" — and a pop song with "Lass Die Katze Stehn". On "Man Leidet Herrlich" — and not for the first time — reggae and dub references are apparent. Unkapitulierbar is a melodic, electronic, brightly colored kaleidoscope of an album.
