The Neon Judgement

The Neon Judgement is a Belgian New Wave band, formed in Leuven in 1981 by members Dirk Da Davo (keyboards/vocalist) and TB Frank (guitarist/vocalist). These Belgian musicians have ofted been considered the pioners of Electronic Body Music (EBM) together other Belgian band Front 242. The high-tech genre form the early 80´ies, combining industrial and electro music, from which later originated new beat and techno.

Davo Da Davo and TB Frank veered between minimalistic industrial drones and odd, new wave-ish synth pop and dance music, underlain by cold, mechanical rhythms. Their initial music is aggressive, danceable and dominated by synthesizers and drum-machines. A bit later on in their career the guitar also gets a prominent place in their music..
