The start of KMFDM's classic period which lasts roughly up until around Symbols. The earlier stylistic experiments and EBM origins of the band are focused into a collection of much more cohesive arrangements, Naive based primarily around repetitive industrial-rock loops spiced with danceable EBM goodness, the occasional female backing vocals, and lyrics dwelling in a cheesy, tongue-in-cheek nihilism. Sure, it's not meant to be taken all that seriously but this good party music for an industrial fan and a very solid release from the early 90's wave of groups who came out of the genre.
Try and get the out-of-print edition without the heavily cut Liebeslied, which illegally sampled Carl Orff's O Fortuna and had its lyrics retooled into english.
