Is Chris L. identical with Flake? edit

Is Christian Lorenz (aka Chris L.) identical with Flake who is known as the keyboarder of Rammstein?--Einar Moses Wohltun (talk) 15:16, 28 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Appearantly, there are two different Berlin musicians named Christian Lorenz, i.e. Chris L. is not identical with Flake, if I understand Chris L.'s FB website correctly: https://www.facebook.com/pg/ChrisAgonoize/about/?ref=page_internal --Einar Moses Wohltun (talk) 15:24, 28 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

"Trivia" Removed edit

I didn't remove it, but I am moving the removed trivia section here just in case some of this can be integrated into the article later when I (or someone else) get to it, per recommendations in WP:Trivia. -- t_kiehne (talk) 04:26, 17 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Dance or Die are members of a media collective called Clan of Nihil.[1] For some American versions of their records, they were renamed "Do or Die" by their label Machinery.[citation needed]

Notability edit

I'll work on more refs to support this, but the band was a flagship on the significant 1990s indie Machinery records and had an album plus two EPs on the major Polydor imprint, What's Up? They also toured all over Europe and toured Mexico. Once documented this should meet WP:NMUSIC #4 & #5. -- t_kiehne (talk) 22:38, 26 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Transition to Darkness on Demand edit

Currently available references do not make the reasons for this transition quite clear: is it a rebranding of the same band (after having dropped a member) or a different thing entirely? The difference here will decide whether to treat the more recent DoD as an "associated act" (and thus the end of the line on this article) or an alias for the band (which would imply a continuation of this article.)-- t_kiehne (talk) 02:40, 27 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
