4.0 out of 5 stars Good Industrial-Metal!, April 30, 2002

This album is great. It's well worth the hefty cost of an import album. From start to finish, these three Germans take you on a journey, the lead singer pouring his heart out. It's rare that he stops singing for the traditional metal screech, making it clear he's German. I've seen these guys perform on recordings, though and during that he lets more fury out, screaming into the mic like Slipknot or the other nu-metal zombies. Maybe he was having a bad day.

5.0 out of 5 stars a must have, March 23, 2002

This review is from: Ego (Audio CD)

this is one of the best records i've heard all year. forget all the numetal industrial. If you like bands like rammstein, nine inch nails, manson this record is a must have and a great start for getting rid of all the other "mall industrial" in your collection. Each OOMPH! record starting from their self titled release up until ego seems to get more and more melodic and catchy while still retaining the hard edge. Lyrics are a good german/english split. Even if you don't like vocals in other languages you really won't notice because they blend so incredibly. Other OOMPH! records worth checking out are Plastik ranking a close second then unrein anything before that sounds very early die krupps/fear factory dated. This is definatly a must have for any industrial/metal/goth fan

5.0 out of 5 stars Great stuff!, May 24, 2004

Oomph is my favorite band. And that is saying something because I actively listen to approx. 200 some bands. Heard of over 1500. So saying that Oomph is my favorite is an extreme compliment to the band. Now to the cd. It really is great ive listend to it about 60 times and still love it. Great mixed english/german lyrics. Great electronics, Dero has a great voice, the music gives me the shivers every damn time. I try to expose the musical talents of European bands to the silly rap listening friends of mine, but when they hear GREAT MUSIC LIKE OOMPH, they dont know what to do because the've been listening to rap/R&B crap for too long. I will have every Oomph CD in two weeks, and I'm excited. Long live Oomph!
