Synopsis

Album Description

KMFDM, now in their 23rd year, remain a musical entity to be reckoned with. Through relentless experimentation and reinvention they have continued to unleash a barrage of songs that allow their fans to dance with abandon, bang their heads or dissect the band?s cuttingly cunning lyrics sometimes all at once! KMFDM?s new album on Metropolis Records, Tohuvabohu, is no exception. ?Tohuvabohu,? an Old Testament word meaning wild and chaotic, perfectly captures the spirit and energy behind the tracks contained therein. Sascha Konietzko, the band?s founder and leader, conducts his army of analog synths and wields his razor sharp lyrics and vocals. Chanteuse Lucia infuses her tracks with a fiercely powered urgency alternating with soft beauty. The KMFDM core remains solid as ever with Jules Hodgson, Andy Selway and Steve White providing the cranking guitars and forceful beats that KMFDM is known for.

CD Reviews

Listening to it for first time right now...

Daisy Lou | Chicago, IL USA | 08/25/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Great sound, great use of Lucia and hooks we've come to love by this band ... agreed this is kind of old school KMFDM (more funky than heavy industrial) but I do love it - love it much more than any new music being churned out right now. Long live KMFDM and industrial music (just happy that Skinny Puppy, RevCo, Slick Idiot and TKK are still making new tunes). It's all about the "small" pleasures, folks ... btw, "I am what I am" is sublime."

Best Album Since Reunion

M. Dinslage | Los Angeles | 08/23/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I can see how a lot of newer KMFDM fans may not like this album, but being a fan since 1993 I have personally not really like the direction that Sascha has taken KMFDM since the reunion... until I heard Tohuvabohu. If you like albums like Nihil and Symbols then this album is for you. Definitely check it out at the very least."

TOHUVABOHU!

"Do yourselves a favor and get this album ASAP! S***w it! Buy two and give one to your best friend. This one WILL light a fire under your a**(in the best way

)KMFDM continues to evolve and explore with their newest release. While I've only just listened to the whole album three times so far, it's a keeper for the ages. Very layered and textured, it has the full-on impact of a full orchestra being overtaken by a chainsaw-wielding SWAT team. It's all here! Ignore the fanboys that "go way back" and just want the same s*** over and over. This is INDUSTRIAL ROCK in its purest form. In a time when every joker with a computer thinks they're some sort of Beethoven, it's nice to have the real thing..KMFDM!"
