Celebrating over 25 years of the ultra-heavy beat, KMFDM proudly offers you their Wurst, so open wide and take a bite! Wurst is single disc collection of KMFDM’s best known tracks released by Metropolis Records, home to KMFDM for the last half decadeLike a German Wurst, or sausage, is made from top quality beef, pork and veal and then grilled to perfection, KMFDM’s Wurst is comprised of their greatest tracks, hand picked and then painstakingly prepared by KMFDM’s “top chef”, the band’s founder and leader, Sascha K. Käpt’n K, as Sascha is known to his legion of fans, has created this release with both the KMFDM neophyte and the well initiated in mind. He has arranged and sequenced these top tracks for maximum listening flavor. For those looking for KMFDM’s most widely-known songs they are here in all their hard hitting glory - “Juke-Joint Jezebel”, “A Dr\*g against War”, “Godlike”, “Light” “D.I.Y.” “Megalomaniac” and “Anarchy”. Wurst runs the gamut of the KMFDM catalog from early hits such as “More & Faster”, “Naïve” and “Money” to more recent favorites like “WWIII” and “Tohuvabohu”. Representing the cream of the crop from 11 albums, Wurst serves up 19 full tracks, topping out at over 72 minutes of music.Of course a KMFDM retrospective would not be complete without artwork by long-time KMFDM cohort Brute! The cover image is a perfect fit as, like the music itself, it portrays the dangerous (and sometimes sexy) underworld that is inhabited by KMFDM.So sit down, grab your fork and dig in. KMFDM, the best at being Wurst!
