I know this isn't much to go on

but this one's been bugging me. Something my step-sister was listening to about '82 or '83. Sort of industrial or goth sounding. The vocals were a guy with a distorted voice, maybe supposed to sound like over the telephone or something reading what sounded like a list of construction supplies - something along the lines of

173 two by fours
Seven tons of steel rebar
Two truckloads of concrete...

Well something like that anyway. Can anyone help?

is it a recipe?

It sounded like a recipe... for a building. Really strange song that I've never heard before or since.

Could it be Einstürzende Neubauten? I'm sure other people on here are way more familiar with them than I am, but it's just a guess!

From what little I've heard of Einstein Neuroses (or whatever they're called) I'd say it's a possibility.
