randomguy 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2007 So apparently KMFDM is releasing a bunch of older albums remastered. I believe there are a couple out already and Angst is up next. (Or maybe was just released) This would be a good time to try some KMFDM if you haven't. (I would probably start with Nihil) Or if you are familiar with KMFDM, you can help spread the love. I'm more of a metal guy than industrial/electronica/dance (whatever the fuck KMFDM is, I see them referred to as dance but IMO that is not really accurate at all) but I love me some KMFDM. For one thing I find it impossible not to smile at some of their lyrics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2007 Always dug KMFDM. Xtort is my favorite album of theirs. I'll definately be getting the remastered versions of Money, Nihl, and Symbols when those come out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henry Spencer 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 My only exposure to KMFDM came in the form of Beavis & Butthead, and that one song they did with Gibby Haynes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
randomguy 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 You should really look into them then. KMFDM forward is the ultimate sound. (And a message from Satan if you turn it around) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 they're pretty good, the little i've heard, Nihil and Symbols. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henry Spencer 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 I've been meaning to seek them out. gary floyd, you say Xtort is their best album, but is it a good place to start? I think the above mentioned Gibby Haynes collaboration is actually Ministry, not KMFDM, now that I think about it. My bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
randomguy 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 I would probably start with Nihil. Nihil, Angst and Xtort are pretty similar in sound but I think Nihil has the widest range of music on it. Some crazy kind of funny songs, some horns, some more industrial Ministry-style tracks, etc. It covers the gamut of the Angst Nihil Xtort er pretty well. I'm looking forward to a remaster of Xtort. Nihil is mixed well but the volume levels on Xtort are low and the mix is very thin in general. I always have to turn my iPod up when it comes on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Special K 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 KMFDM is fun if you're in the mood. Just that. However, they do some KILLER remixes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Report post Posted January 28, 2007 Lovey, would this band be my kind of stuff? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 Definitly check them out. I'd say they are one of, if not the best industrial groups out there. I also love their remix of Holy Wars from Megadeth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Legalise Drugs and Murder Report post Posted January 28, 2007 Lovey, would this band be my kind of stuff? Probably not. Fast dance beats, mixing, sampling, and catchy metal riffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man Who Sold The World 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2007 I've only heard a few songs, but they seem enjoyable. They have a song I believe I heard at a friends house, "Power" I think, and it was pretty good IIRC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't seen the movie in awhile, but didn't they play that song in Bad Boys? I remember Martin Lawrence getting tossed around a bathroom while they played this, but I could be wrong.

swan 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2007 Funny, I just picked up the latest EP "Ruck Zuck" this past weekend. I must have 30 various albums, extended singles, and EP's. I still have the Sucks T-shirt in a box somewhere. I saw them live several times at the Metro back when they were based in Chicago back in the Wax Trax/TVT days.

I think your thinking of "Jesus Built My Hotrod" by Ministry w/ Gibby Haynes on lead vocals. Now thats another great album, "Psalm 69". You had "Hotrod", "Just One Fix", "NWO", etc, etc....
