Synopsis

Amazon.com
KMFDM's previous album, Xtort, was a corrosive industrial metalfest that burned as deeply as most anything by Ministry or Nine Inch Nails. But fans expecting more gut-pounding, head-smashing euphoria are in for a surprise. The band's self-titled successor is light on the metal, heavy on the electronic--which isn't to say KMFDM are hopping on some Chemical Brothers/Prodigy bandwagon. They were futzing around with samplers and keyboards over a decade ago. It's just that diehard metalheads might find KMFDM's skittering beats and blipping keyboards a little too left-field. But for open-minded souls who like to dance and destroy, KMFDM should prove to be a hedonistic cauldron of carnal delight. --Jon Wiederhorn

CD Reviews

One of their best
Kevin Clapp | LexiKalb, US-of-A | 07/31/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This was the last truly great KMFDM album, and one of the band's best. It's pretty unanimous among fans new and old that Symbols is not to be missed. In general, KMFDM's sound sways between hard rock and techno from album to album--this particular release slants heavily toward techno. In general, everything that makes KMFDM good is present on this CD: Ray Watts, En Esch, Skold, Ogre, and Guenter provide a perfect sampling of KMFDM's major players on rotation throughout its existence to this point. Abby Travis is also one of the most stand-out guest female vocalists in the bunch. I could go through the tracklist, but must simply state that every song is top-notch, though a couple of 'em took me a bit longer to really notice. This is Sascha and co. at one of their peaks. Quit reading this and buy it."

"kmfdm are a hard band to pick and choose favorites with.since every album of thiers differs in style very much. this album is amazing. especially when listened to in the car and loud bass. every old person looks at you and thinks "wtf?" upon first listen, this album may seem a bit boring and will make you want to skip on to the next track,but that is HARDLY what it is. over a period of 2 days, i have gotten used to every song on this album except maybe one or two of them. guess what? they are all awesome!! this is a definate worthy follow up to the almighty xtort. if you have any interest in goth techno clubs or good music in general, then this is your album.



this is the music real goths should like instead of whiny screamo."
