I think Further Down the Spiral was the last album I truly enjoyed by him because it still had that chaotic complexity and layers upon layers of sonic texture. After that it pretty much became a cookie cutter technique and wasn't as inventive or detailed as it had been.

If you want some good stuff get his foreign releases during the earlier days or the Tate Mansion sessions, they get really dark and are extremely good sessions that pretty much were the early defining sound for Trent.

Tickets are 55 bucks. :sad: Worth it for the sunday concert. If Clap Your Hands and Arctic Monkeys and Beck played with Sufjan Stevens, Flaming Lips, The Shins and Iron & Wine...That would be the shit.

I lost all respect for KMFDM after they release WWIII. But what you said is exactly true.

hahaha I lost respect after they did the Mortal Kombat soundtrack...possibly the single worst move they ever made and some of the worst music done by them.

Yep they did like 1/2 of the soundtrack if I remember right, they may have done the whole thing but it's been a while.

My bad they did one song "Megalomaniac" but I think they had a hand in forming the compilation also. I remember them having a pretty heavy hand in the movie soundtrack though.

Great, now I'm listening to ATTAK!.. I hope I don't start warming up to KMFDM again. I just loved how the band itself was over 20 years old. But after WWIII came out they just became another one of those foreign bands that write about the damn war.
