In 1981 Marian Gold and Bernhard Lloyd, together with other music enthusiasts, founded the artist collective Nelson Community in the Westphalian city of Münster, with whom they made their first live appearance in December 1981. A year later, Gold and Lloyd, together with Frank Mertens, formed the pop trio Forever Young and, at the end of 1982, made their first live appearance together and – typical of a future studio project – also their last for the next ten years.

In 1983, the three took the name Alphaville from Jean-Luc Godard’s film of the same name and used it as their new band name, under which they signed a record deal that same year.
