Free Music Notes for MDFMKFree Music Review: Not Classic but still Brilliant Hit: 4 StarsThis is really what I expected: KMFDM a little bit progressed.
The album sounds fantastic, the known KMFDM sound, a little bit more polished, but still wild and powerful. That is nearly perfect in other words. Some of the songs have also great ideas. There are some tracks that I like more (eg "Torpedoes", "Hydro-Electric", "Witch Hunt"), but I do listen to the whole album very often.
It may never be a "classic" album, but it is still a brilliant album.
I really cannot understand people that complain about KMFDM have changed. Everything I have liked in KMFDM sound is also present in their latest albums, and in their "transformation" to MDFMK, too. Fans,... proceed!
Free Music Review: abnormally catchy and good Hit: 5 StarsI acually really liked this album. While it doesnt really sound much like KMFDM it does have a few things that it takes away from it. Essentially many components of KMFDM found their way into MDFMK. It is much more grungy, catch, and dancey, per say. But its hard to compare the two. They almost sound like 2 totaly different bands
Free Music Review: Cha-Ching Hit: 3 StarsKMFDM was never there to make money, after the demise of KMFDM it seems as if everyone's favorite Kapt'n needed some coin. This is to put it simply Sascha and Tim-Tim's attempt at mainstream music. Not that that is a bad thing, it's just that if you were here expecting KMFDM you will be dissapointed. This isn't a bad album, but it's nothing fantastic. There is A LOT of synth on this album, more than anything by KMFDM. I'm not a big fan of the electronic parts, but occasionally when the guitar kicks in I'm all over it. If you are a casual music fan buy it, if you're a KMFDM fan buy it soley for a komplete kollektion. Who knows maybe you'll enjoy it...
Free Music Review: awesome Hit: 5 Starsfirst let me say this..i love tim skold's contribution to kmfdm/mdfmk...he is a great vocalist for the dark hard techno-ish music..and a much needed break from grunters like sascha, en esch, and raymond watts....and i do infact hate marilyn manson with a passion as well! sorry tim, no doubt that you are cool, but joining manson was a nasty move to me.
anyways, what a great follow-up to adios...this is also good because you arent really expecting kmfdm...i mean sascha was really the only member of true kmfdm blood in this project..so basically they covered their arses from those nit-picking fans who would have called this "the worst kmfdm album" or said "this isnt kmfdm."...i personally think they should have continued with this direction...maybe change things up a little bit, but enough to sound fresh and excellent...dare i say mdfmk should have been kmfdm of the new millenia?...i mean really, the worst part of this album is definately the cover and linear note design...where is the brute when you need him?..well now kmfdm has been back a while and they arent what they used to be...if they were still MDFMK, they could have been excused easily.
the japanese version is VERY tempting, but yet that cd is still incomplete because it still lacks "missing time." so i would say stick with the US release simply because 30 extra bucks isn't worth it for 2 extra tracks...if it were 4-9 extra tracks, i could understand...i mean unless you live, eat, sleep and breath mdfmk....where is the accompanying 4 track EP when you need it?
Free Music Review: Lucia Cifarelli's Debut With KMFDM.....I mean MDFMK Hit: 4 StarsSome put this album down for various reasons including the members involved(Sascha,Tim,Lucia) the production or lack of direction. Or maybe because of KMFDM being inverted to MDFMK.....I don't know. I can tell you this, KMFDM are embarking on a different sound for the 21st century and how awesome of a sound it is. With the exception of Transmutation, this album is quite good. The songwriting and vocal stylings are incredible. And Lucia fits into the fold quite well and continuing to improve on future albums 'Attak,WWIII' There are a few slight limitations here and there(some guitar tracks are a bit thin) but overall this album does kick ass. Most were upset over the disbanding of KMFDM and state that they are going down hill since this was released...........I totally disagree and really enjoy this album!
