Issued in 2008, BRIMBORIUM finds the German industrial act KMDFM in remix mode, firing off numerous reworked tracks from its TOHUVABOHU album. Highlights of the 13-track collection include a rumbling version of "Tohuvabohu" by Combichrist and a slinky, dance-floor-oriented take on "Looking for Strange" by Velox Music. While not to the best introduction to Sascha Konietzko and his noisy crew, the compilation is a fine companion piece to latter-day KMFDM albums, making it of particular interest to diehard fans.
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.
