During the years 1980-87, German trio Die Tödliche Doris was absolutely legendary in the Berlin underground music and art scene. Embodying the pure, obscure spirit of "Geniale Dilettanten," their releases and live shows revealed a raw post-punk sensibility with performance art. Die Tödliche Doris are still widely considered one of the most radical, intelligent and influential German avantgarde bands of the last two decades.
