Rocks - Milestones Reloaded CD £17.59

bdquoROCKSldquo is a personal ldquobest of compilation by KMFDM protagonists and mastermindsSascha Konietzko and Lucia Cifarelli, who claim the reimagined, remixed pieces wouldbe an ideal playlist for a live setldquo.Ranging from remixes by Bradley Bills of CHANT to producermusician extraordinaryMarco Trentacoste and Sascha Konietzko himself, the reworked versions extract theessence of the band and, at the same time, place new emphases and commemorate thebandrsquos 32th anniversary.In true KMFDM tradition, ldquoROCKSrdquo bears all the bandrsquos trademarks the mostly five letterscommonly used in the title, as well as the iconic graphics of Aidan Hughes aka BRUTE,which are reminiscent in the style of early Soviet Constructivism propaganda.Add to this KMFDMs signature industrial sound, a crossover between technodance andheavy metal, and densely distilled political lyrics, which never fail to challenge ignoramusesof every breed, and it is clear why KMFDM is regarded as the epitome and synonym for themusical style of the harder variety.
