Live performances

They have thus far completed UK and European tour dates. The debut album was toured with a three-piece line-up (with the addition of a drummer). However, in August 2008 they headlined the Experimental Circle Tent at Offset Festival bringing the event to a close as a 2-piece (using a specially modified shared drumkit), the first time they have performed without a separate drummer. They retained this live formation for recent shows in Luxembourg, Istanbul, Bucharest and Lausanne.

Recycling clause

Negotiations with EMI (who licensed the debut album in the UK) were protracted while the band insisted upon the inclusion of special recycling clauses, ensuring that all their record sleeves, CD sleeves and promotional material be produced using recycled materials. All releases to date have used recycled paperstock.

In popular media

In 2008 their song "You Are The Space Invader" was used as the soundtrack to the HBO Cinemax trailer.

In 2007 The Sunday Telegraph included Prinzhorn Dance School's debut album in a "best 120 albums of all time" list.

In 2010 a poster of the Prinzhorn Dance School album can been seen in the movie Greenberg. DFA Records boss James Murphy was responsible for the soundtrack.
