Never one to shy away from asking the tough questions, KMFDM gives voice to the inquiry that is on everyone’s lips in these twisted times - WTF?!. WTF?!, the band’s new album released on Dependent / KMFDM Records on April 29th., 2011, joins the ranks of their many records titled with a five character name.
WTF?! features 11 brand new songs, including the album’s lead single “Krank”, (to be released in Europe on March 11th,) KMFDM’s latest anthem. All in all Käpt’n K. and his Kadets provide over 50 minutes of guaranteed musical mayhem on this new release. WTF?! was conducted, as always, by KMFDM founder, leader and vocalist Sascha K. who believes this is his most powerful and dominate sonic statement to date. KMFDM’s female singer, Lucia, proves her vocal prowess on the dreamy yet driving “Dystopia” and the super-charged revolution-themed rocker “Rebels In Kontrol”, which has already made news as a protest song in support of Wikileaks. Continuing the band-based formula of recent years, KMFDMers Jules Hodgson, Steve White and Andy Selway round out the roster.
On WTF?! listeners will find a new addition to the menagerie of languages employed by KMFDM (English, German, Latin, Hebrew, Lingala (an African language), Spanish and Russian) as the band further proclaim themselves citizens of the world with “Panzerfaust”, sung in Italian. This time out KMFDM break their own formula of including a cover song as they did on the last three albums. WTF?! is pure KMFDM through and through.
This strong output is additionally enforced by the release of the Single KRANK, including mixes by SKOLD, Bill Rieflin and Sebastian Komor, KMFDM’s first Single release since 2002 (“Boots”), that will cause additional mayhem in clubs over Europe.
