Title: Lords of Acid do KMFDM
Review: A suprisingly guitar-heavy offering from the Lords, Farstucker doesn't live up to the high water mark set by their 1994 album VooDoo U but it does top their last effort, Our Little Secret. Much of the cheeky humor is replaced by grinding, heavy metal guitars, making the album almost sound like industrial rock. This works quite well sometimes (Scrood Bi U, Slave to Love) but not so well other times (Glad I'm Not God, Feed My Hungry Soul). As I said, the humor is sadly missing from a lot of the songs, with only Rover Take Over and I Like It really bringing any laughs. At first I was a bit disappointed with their new style, but after a few listens it really has started to grow on me. It definately goes a long way to fill the void left by the break up of KMFDM. If you're just getting started with LOA, go with VooDoo U, but if you're looking for a good guitar/techno hybrid, go with Farstucker.
Is the review positive or negative?
