Lustfaust was a pioneering band from West Berlin active from the mid 70s to the early 80s. They employed numerous musical strategies usually stemming from the wide variations in age and experience of the bands regular members. They were certainly involved with early industrial, noise and electronic musical experimentation though aren’t well recognised for any of these efforts. Einstürzende Neubauten are probably the most obvious reference for their musical style and Blixa Bargeld has acknowledged Lustfaust as an influence on their early developments. The bands most significant work though is in their use and promotion of the tape trading network whilst it was still in its infancy and their requests for fans to make their own covers for the albums which were shared through the band's fanzine Falke Tränen.
