The extra's series so far has been a blessing.. Remastering long out of print KMFDM singles from the tvt/wax trax days and packaging it in a 2 cd format, for less then it'd cost to find the originals on ebay. ON Extras 3 we get the 2 left-over tracks from the glory single from the previous extras, volume 2. Then we get the JJJ single, the brute single, the rules single, the mdfmk single, and then 3 non mainstream single songs. the power and megalomaniac single mixes (meaning shortened album versions) and a mix of anarchy (payola mix) with sanitized lyrics, presumably for radio play. The only complaint is the tracklisting. As with the series itself, this cd has to have every mix of the same song back to back, in this case 5 juke joint jezebel's (the bands biggest "hit" and ironically the only song they don't say their name in repeatedly) and 4 brutes. However this only applies to disc one this time. We then get a miracle on disc 2, a jumbled track mix. So the anarchy and megalomaniac songs are spaced apart. But honestly that's just the tracklisting from the singles the songs came from. Still, it saves me having to hit random on the cd player. The songs sound the least improved being that they are the most recent from the singles, which dwindled off in numbers in the 90's due to the end of the US remix single market I guess. This ends the kmfdm extras series and now up next I believe is a comp of all their non album songs, remixes and cover songs. Maybe we'll luck out and get alot of the remixes they did for other artists. (did you know they remixed king nothing from Metallica's "Load" album?)

Received item in a timely manner; item was top quality;
cost was comparable to other sources of retail sales.
Overall - conveniently satisfied.
