What in th'...!?, March 8, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Oomph (Audio CD)
When I first heard this CD, I wanted to ask myself, what kind of gun did they put on the head of the person who green lit this band and how much money did they actually spend on it...but...you grow to seriously love this band. I personally gave this band a second chance when I ordered "Ego" and then, I was hooked, I just recently ordered "Unrein", and in the near future, I'm getting Plastik and whichever ones I want, you gotta check this band out, but buyer beware, this band does 'NOT' stick with the same genre of music each CD. This CD is more Industrial sounds then heavy rock, over the years "Oomph!" has progressively gotten more and more into the rock/metal stream, but the mix of Vox and Sounds make a pleasent sound with the vocals, so check out some of the later stuff, and if you want to be a little daring, check this one out later on.

Great electronic Noise!!!, July 22, 2000
This review is from: Oomph (Audio CD)
For those who knows Oomph! as a band with a noisy guitar sound this CD will sound very strange, because it is only electronic noise, without any guitars, but it is really an experience! It is the first CD they had produced and it is a great debut. My favorite songs are "Mein Herz", "Der neue Gott" and "Ich bin Du". All songs are cult! It is pure electronic noise, hard, loud and very exciting.

Oomph! In the beginning. . ., January 10, 2010
This review is from: Oomph (Audio CD)
Although I will say this is not one of my favorite Oomph! cd's. It does grow on you when you listen to it. This cd has come to hold a special place in my collection. And to be honest if you listen to it at night in the dark its kinda scary!
Anyways, there are some pretty good songs on here, and there are some okay songs on here. And if you are really into old school 80's sounding industrial music/guitar sounds then this is your cd.
I got into Oomph! hearing some of their later music, listening to their first disc is ecxiting because 1:its a cool cd 2:Oomph! is just that awesome and as eclectic as I am. So if you are a diehard fan then I recommend at least collecting this cd. These are the songs I thought were cool on this cd: Ich Bin Du, Der Neue Gott, Under Pressure grew on me after a while, Me Inside You, Purple Skin, Mein Herz is awesome.
Deros voice doesn't quite become melodic until Wunschkind, mostly he is growling and shouting in this one, most of which I like, and some of which could have been done better. The guitars are a sweet touch to the harsh electronic sound. Some of the keys are a little annoying at points. I'd say overall its a solid album.
