The punk-prog-operatic stylings of Nina Hagen

She’s like the middle of a Freddie Mercury / Toyah Wilcox / Genesis P Orridge venn diagram. Quite astonishing.

From Wikipedia:

According to reviewer Fritz Rumler: “she thrusts herself into the music, aggressively, directly, furiously, roars in the most beautiful opera alto, then, through shrieks and squeals, precipitates into luminous soprano heights, she parodies, satirises, and howls on stage like a dervish.”

One to investigate further, methinks.
