One of the long-running electro-industrial band KMFDM's most dance-oriented albums, 1997's SYMBOLS is a collection of hypnotic-sounding rhythm tracks framing the robotic vocals and disaffected lyrics of Sascha Konietzko. It was re-released in 2007 as part of a planned retrospective of the band's back catalog.
Tracklist
KMFDM
The German industrial dance act KMFDM were one of the first bands to recognize the link between the mechanical ferocity of industrial music and the unrelenting rhythms of the dance floor. Although they formed in Germany in 1984, they soon made a name for themselves in the United States as one of the premier bands on the seminal Chicago industrial label Wax Trax. While their popularity faltered a bit in the wake of more cartoonish American versions of KMFDM's aesthetic, the band's influence on industrial music can not be underestimated.
