Agogo is a rarities album by KMFDM. Agogo comprises numerous tracks either previously unreleased, released on other compilations, or otherwise not widely available. The only KMFDM album (from the so-called 'Classic' Era of 1984 to 1999) to never be re-released in any other way or format (including mp3), possibly due to copyright concerns.
