Kraftwerk Begin Summer Tour Monday

It's Memorial Day Weekend, and what better way to celebrate our country's brave, fallen heroes...than with some German electropop! As previously reported, Kraftwerk will kick off a brief tour in the U.S. Monday, after which they'll head back to Europe (and picturesque locales like Thessaloniki) for the remainder of the summer.

The legendary Man Machines are also getting ready to unfurl their first-ever official live album on June 7 via Astralwerks. Minimum-Maximum, a mammoth 22-track set, was recorded during Kraftwerk's 2004 tour in Europe, Japan, and the U.S. and includes some of the band's finest robo-hits. Der dates:
