Free Music Notes for UAIOE

Free Music Review: A forgotten classic
Hit: 4 Stars

Much angrier and more active than the follow up, "Naive", and more consistently interesting than the preceding "Don't Blow Your Top" or "What Do You Know Deutschland", "UAIOE" is unique in KMFDM's catelogue for several reasons.

The politically rebellious personality the band is known for began here. The commonly used slogans "Rip the system!" and "More and faster!" had their genesis. For the first time Sascha began to distort his voice on a regular basis, something common in all their 90's albums. Jamaican Morgan Adjei appears on this album and this album only. His blissful stream of consciousness rambling add a unique reggae flavor to the mix and provide contrast to Sascha's usual nihilist anthems.

"UAIOE" isn't a very melodic or guitar heavy album. The band had yet to add a significant amount of female vocals, and the little guitar work that is present is bland, simple, uninspired, and plays nothing but a supporting role. The most important thing here is rhythm. Like "Naive", it's heavily dance oriented. The beats are constantly shifting and complex. The synthesizer work remains in the vein of earlier albums. There are a lot of horn synth patches (nowhere to be found on "Naive").
The songs themselves are a lot more reminiscient of their later work than on the preceding two albums. There are no more rambling instrumental pieces, there are more distinct sections to each song.

My biggest complaint about the album is its length (only about half an hour) and the fact that a whole track (out of 9 total) is spent on an alternate version of "Rip the System" called "Ganja Rock" with the only difference being increased length and vocals by Adjei instead of the original Sascha chant ("Black man, white man...").

My favorites are "UAIOE", "Murder" and "En Esch".

This is a good buy if you've already got the essentials "Nihil", "Naive" and "Symbols" and maybe a couple others like "Angst" or "XTORT".
