Their Very Debut Mini-album Reissue

Description:

Opium is what some believe to be the debut album by KMFDM, originally released in 1984. It is not that, however, it is so much more. Opium was originally circulated among a group of fellow-patrons in the underground scene of Hamburg in 1984 as a home taped run of a handful of cassette-tapes. There never existed any actual master tapes, let alone any professional equipment to record the album. In the early 90's, one of the original cassette tapes, sharing a sealed leaden box with a rotting sausage, was salvaged from a WWII air-raid-shelter, flooded with sewage during the aftermath of a fire which had ravaged the building above. The tape, though not in perfect condition, contained everything that Opium would be, the "missing link to 'Where did KMFDM even come from in the first place'," which Sascha Konietzko said, would be missed out on, if a new listener to KMFDM began with What Do You Know, Deutschland'. Opium shows the roots of KMFDM, from the bold experimentation and dissonant sound effects, but contained within these tracks is the wellspring from which the KMFDM "ultra heavy beat" was born.

"Opium" is the debut album by the German industrial band KMFDM, released in CD format. Originally recorded in 1984 and re-released years later, "Opium" captures the raw beginnings of a group that would become pioneers in industrial rock and electronic music. The album features experimental soundscapes, heavy beats, and provocative lyrics that laid the foundation for KMFDM?s signature style. Over their career, KMFDM has achieved international acclaim with albums like "Nihil," "Angst," and "Symbols," influencing countless artists within the genre.
