      Frankly,
      this
      album
      scares
      me.
      I
      am
      more
      at
      home
     
     
      listening
      to
      something
      light
      and
      acoustic
      rather
      than
      the
      driving
     
     
      beat,
      the
      hard
      edge,
      and
      the
      sometimes
      satanic
      sounding
      lead
     
     
      singer
      in
      KMFDM’s
      latest
      release.
     
    

    
     
      Anyone
      who
      appreciates
      Nine
      Inch
      Nails
      will
      really
      like
     
     
      this
      album.
      It
      is
      dark
      andmysterious
      despite
      being
      suprisingly
     
     
      upbeat
      for
      industrial
      techno.
     
    

    
     
      The
      band
      sends
      very
      strong
      messages
      in
      their
      songs,
      and
     
     
      they
      pick
      titles
      to
      represent
      these
      messages.
      “Power”
      and
     
     
      “Wrath”
      and
      “Craze”
      are
      just
      a
      few
      of
      the
      titles
      listed
      in
      big
     
     
      block
      letters
      on
      the
      back

      Let’s
      talk
      about
      sex,
      drugs
      and
      rock
      ‘n
      roll,
      particularly
     
     
      the
      latter
      two.
      DIG
      is
      primarily
      a
      guitar
      band.
      They
      do,
     
     
      however,
      add
      a
      bit
      of
      sampling
      to
      their
      songs,
      including
      sounds
     
     
      from
      the
      cosmos,
      made
      popular
      by
      the
      current
      Astro
      boy/girl
     
     
      subculture.
     
    

    
     
      I
      want
      to
      explain
      how
      drugs
      relate
      to
      DIG’s
      CD.
      Well,
     
     
      they
      seem
      to
      have
      a
      fixation
      with
      illicit
      substances
      which
      is
     
     
      apparent
      in
      their
      lyrics,
      especially
      the
      song
      titles.
      Twoexamples
     
     
      are
      “Little
      Pill”
      and
      “Mood
      Elevator”.
     
    

    
     
      There
      are
      two
      things
      that
      I
      really
      liked
      about
      this
      CD.
     
     
      First
      and
      foremost
      is
      the
      undying
      energy
      the
      band
      seems
      to
     
     
      have.
      They
      sound
      as
      if
      they
      would
      be
      really
      exciting
      to
      watch
     
     
      on
      stage.
      Secondly,
      I
      appreciated
      the
      irony
      of
      track
      eleven.
      It
     
     
      starts
      with
      a
      nice
      pseudo-acoustic
      introduction,
      which
      really
     
     
      comes
      as
      a
      surprise
      seeing
      as
      the
      song
      title
      is
      “Bashing
      In
      Your
     
     
      Head”.
     
    

    
     
      Although
      not
      my
      favourite
      of
      the
      CD’s
      I’ve
      picked
      up
      recently,
     
     
      I
      say-
      “Give
      it
      a
      go.”
