Tabula Rasa is the sixth full-length studio album from the German industrial band Einstürzende Neubauten and was released in 1993.
Anita Lane joins Blixa Bargeld on vocals for the song "Blume."
Trouser Press described the album as "a gripping blend of stately seduction and brutality that sounds like the masterpiece Einstürzende Neubauten was born to make."
Although the songs have no musical similarity, "Headcleaner" contains a lyrical reference to the Beatles song "All You Need Is Love":
Where "All You Need Is Love" goes:
There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
In "Headcleaner" the line goes:
Cause nothing has been done that can't be done
Nothing has been sang that can't be sung And nothing has been said, so forget how to play the game
The line 'All you need is love' is also replaced with 'All you need is headcleaner'.
