Editorial Reviews

Product Description
This single is a preview for their upcoming album in 2007 and it will set your body ablaze with unbridled fury. Containing four scorching tracks, "Octotenfest" is heavier than previous releases. It's an all out industrial metal assault from hell. Growling vocals deliver the final blows as you're lying on the ground begging for mercy, but there is no mercy.

5.0 out of 5 stars The heaviest HuG effort, October 14, 2006

By	E. Anderson - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Hanzel und Gretyl is easily my favorite industrial/metal band. It has been two years since they unleashed "Scheissmessiah" upon the public. "Oktotenfest 2006" isn't a full length HuG cd but rather a tasty sample of what to expect next year when the band puts out a new album. Unfortunately the four track EP is only twelve minutes long. Too short for my personal taste but it sure beats waiting until 2007 to hear new HuG. Track #1 and #4 are more samples than songs themselves. Tracks #2 and #3 are absolutely mindblowing. "Stern Krieg" and "Fukken Uber Death Party" are the heaviest songs that Loopy and Vas Kallas has ever put out. The songs are simply brutally aggressive industrial/metal, almost death metal like especially on "Fukken Uber Death". The two songs are aggressive and melodic similiar to "SS Deathstar Supergalatick" and "Disko Fire Scheissmessiah". Awesome songs to listen to at top volume. I wish "Oktotenfest 2006" was a full length album but beggers can't be choosers. This is an excellent appetizer to whet my Hanzel und Gretyl fix.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtaking, January 4, 2007

By	Robert NIckel "Rob" (Mount Vernon, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Im rating the 2 songs with 5 stars, Not the entire 4 track CD with the 1st and 4th track as a waste of space. Though track 1 is more of an intro to track 2. While track 4 seems useless at best. The songs are the heaviest HuG has yet to release. Definatly gives other heavy releases a run for there money. Now im talking heavy in a industrial/metal sense. Not really death metal despite the double bass. I hope im not dissapointed with the release of the comlpete album later this year.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE CHILD DEVIANT!, June 18, 2007

By	CRAZOTOLOGY (Joplin, MO. (USA)) - See all my reviews

I love this music. Power heavy industrial metal with german/english lyrics and hard hitting riffs that work verry well with electronica. I am excited to hear what the full length album is going to sound like. This is just a single...but a really exciting one. Track 2 will rip your face off!!! Killer industrial anthem!
