KMFDM's 10th album is their most adventuresome, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's their best. Their usual sense for marvelous hooks is often forgotten amidst the snappy...

By 1997, KMFDM had become a dependable, prolific source for tightly produced, mostly top-notch heavy industrial music. To their great credit, the band never betrayed its...

A classic KMFDM song, "Sucks" states everything the band believes in to the tune of distorted vocals and a heavy industrial-dance beat. Including the album track, a...

KMFDM's unfocused industrial experiments of the late '80s finally blossomed on 1990's superb Naïve album, which displayed highly evolved production values and a cohesive...

This early release from industrial titans KMFDM sounds a little flimsy when compared to the band's pile-driving later work. Recorded in 1988, the music on Don't Blow Your...

This happy little two song EP contains KMFDM remixing My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult and vice versa. Although collector's of either bands output or Wax Trax might want...

There are only two new songs to be found on this four-song single, but this is a nice return to form for the industrial madmen. The cover of "These Boots Are Made for...
