KMFDM is a multinational industrial band from Hamburg led by Sascha Konietzko, who founded the band in 1984 as a performance art project.
Nihil is the seventh studio album by German industrial band KMFDM, released on April 4, 1995, by Wax Trax! Records. The album marked the return of former band member Raymond Watts and the first appearance of session drummer Bill Rieflin, and was mostly written by frontman Sascha Konietzko.
"Money" is a song by industrial rock group KMFDM from their 1992 album of the same name. It was released as a single in 1992, and released as a 7" in 2008, as the ninth release of KMFDM's 24/7 series. The song charted at No. 36 in July 1992 on Billboard's Dance/Club Play Songs Chart. The tracks on the single are included on the singles compilation album, Extra, Vol. 1.
Money is the fifth studio album by German industrial band KMFDM, released in February 1992 by Wax Trax! Records. It was originally intended to be titled Apart, with each of the two core members, Sascha Konietzko and En Esch, recording half an album and combining their work. The album ended up using only Konietzko's half, along with additional songs. It received mixed reviews, but spawned a number of club hits. It went out of print in the late 1990s and was re-released in 2006.
WWIII is KMFDM's twelfth studio album, released on September 23, 2003. It follows the common KMFDM practice of naming albums with five-letter words. This is KMFDM's only release on Sanctuary Records. Lyrically, the album is very political. The songs primarily attack George W. Bush's presidency, various US wars in the Middle East, and America's foreign policy. The last track, "Intro", introduces the members of the band. It was recorded in Seattle, Washington. The album's first and eponymous single was featured in the game Saints Row: The Third.
Attak is the eleventh studio album by German industrial band KMFDM, released on March 19, 2002 by Metropolis Records. The band's first album following a three-year hiatus, it was the first to feature member Lucia Cifarelli and the last to feature member Tim Sköld.
Adios is the tenth studio album released by German industrial band KMFDM. The album was originally conceived as the group's parting shot to its longtime record label, Wax Trax! Records, but it ended up also signaling the break-up of KMFDM itself until the band reformed in 2002. Recorded in Seattle, Washington, this was the last album to feature En Esch and Günter Schulz, who both went on to form Slick Idiot. Following the break-up, founding member Sascha Konietzko created the band MDFMK, before reforming KMFDM in 2002 without Esch or Schulz.
Angst is the sixth studio album by German industrial band KMFDM, released on 12 October 1993 by Wax Trax! Records.
Xtort is the eighth studio album by German industrial band KMFDM, released on June 25, 1996, by Wax Trax! Records. It was recorded from the end of 1995 through early 1996, shortly after the death of Wax Trax! co-founder and band friend Jim Nash. Xtort features a variety of guest artists from the industrial music scene and studio musicians from other genres, but includes limited participation from core member En Esch.
UAIOE is the third studio album by the German industrial band KMFDM. It was released on 7 October 1989 by Cash Beat Records. Several 1970's "rock" bands are referenced: The album's title track borrows heavily from the lyrical tropes of Frank Zappa, whereas the song "En Esch" is, instrumentally, a cover version of Deep Purple's "Demon's Eye".
Opium is a demo album by German industrial band KMFDM, released in 2002 by Firstworld. It is one of only two KMFDM studio albums that does not feature cover artwork by pop artist Brute!.
"Light" is a song by industrial rock band KMFDM from their 1993 album Angst. The single was first released in 1994 and contains nine different remixes of the song. "Light" peaked at No. 31 on the Billboard Dance/Club Play Songs Chart in May 1994. The single was re-released as a 7" in 2009, and the song was remixed and released as "Light 2010" on December 17, 2010.
"Split" is a song by industrial rock band KMFDM, released in 1991 between their albums Naïve and Money. The song reached No. 46 on Billboard's Dance/Club Play Songs Chart in July 1991. The tracks on the single are also included on the singles compilation album, Extra, Vol. 1.
Sin Sex & Salvation (1994), is an EP released by KMFDM and Raymond Watts. The artist for it is usually listed as KMFDM vs. PIG. It was recently re-released in 2024. Prior to then, none of the songs had ever been re-released in any other format since its initial release, except for "Fuck Me" which appears on a bonus disc entitled 'The Year of the Pig Collection' accompanying the Canadian release of the "Juke Joint Jezebel" Giorgio Moroder mixes maxi-single, and "Secret Skin" which appears on the 'Year of the Pig' 12" four song vinyl pressing containing "Juke Joint Jezebel" as the caveat. Both were released in 1995 and are OOP as well.
"Vogue" is a song by industrial rock band KMFDM from their 1992 album Money. The song hit No. 19 on Billboard's Dance/Club Play Songs chart in May 1992. The tracks on the single are also included on the singles compilation album, Extra, Vol. 1. The single version is an extended 12" mix that differs from the album version, featuring more guitar-work.
Dirty Bomb is a collaborative album under the name KGC, a collaboration between Sascha Konietzko and Lucia Cifarelli of KMFDM and Dean Garcia of Curve, released in 2006.
Blitz is German industrial rock group KMFDM's fifteenth studio album, released on March 24, 2009, on KMFDM Records and Metropolis Records. It also marks the first use of five letter song titles and a five letter album title since WWIII. The album charted after its release, as did the song "People of the Lie". Blitz had songs written in three different languages, and was moderately well received by critics. Most of its songs were remixed for the band's next release, Krieg.
WTF?! is the sixteenth studio album by German industrial band KMFDM, released on April 26, 2011, on KMFDM Records and Metropolis Records. The regular line-up of Sascha Konietzko, Lucia Cifarelli, Jules Hodgson, Andy Selway, and Steve White was joined by a handful of musicians from other industrial and alternative metal acts. The album took about twice as long as usual for the band to produce, and underwent a significant amount of modification during its recording.
Paradise is the twentieth album by industrial band KMFDM. It was released on Metropolis Records and KMFDM Records on 27 September 2019. The album features the band's new core line-up of frontman/principal composer Sascha Konietzko, frontwoman/principal writer Lucia Cifarelli, drummer Andy Selway, and guitarist Andee Blacksugar, along with guest performances from Doug Wimbish, Cheryl Wilson, and on-and-off longtime collaborator Raymond Watts in his first appearance on a KMFDM album since 2003.
