Audio Remasterer: Brian Gardner . Issued in 1992, MONEY finds the German industrial band KMFDM venturing further into what would become its signature sound, with pounding beats and driving keyboard lines mixing with ominous vocals and metallic guitar riffs. On these tracks (some of which are remixes), Sascha Konietzko, En Ensch, and company revel in their propulsive song structures, particularly on the scathing title song, the deliriously driving "Vogue," and the stuttering "Bargeld." For the KMFDM faithful, this is an essential release, if for no other reason than its position as a key step in the band's evolution.
The German industrial dance act KMFDM were one of the first bands to recognize the link between the mechanical ferocity of industrial music and the unrelenting rhythms of the dance floor. Although they formed in Germany in 1984, they soon made a name for themselves in the United States as one of the premier bands on the seminal Chicago industrial label Wax Trax. While their popularity faltered a bit in the wake of more cartoonish American versions of KMFDM's aesthetic, the band's influence on industrial music can not be underestimated.
