KMFDM - AIRHEAD (Official Music Video)

[@themonotropicguitarist]

It's weird but awesome to hear a 90's classic being released in 2024.

[@TerrenceNowicki]

Daria would've LOVED this song.

[@endlessnameless6494]

Yeah, I feel like the "irony" of this video is also completely directed at 80's/90's kids. Like this would have been a "funny" collage video in 1994. I don't think the modern 20 year old kid would quite "get" the humor going on with these references, ha! Lots of funny old footage, though...very cool.

I hear you. I remember a lot of those images myself.

This sure sounds like a Drill song.

[@erikpitman6748]

Great song - sounds very 90s alternative. #KMFDM have always excelled at diversity in their music. Definitely not a one trick pony.

Reminds me of Garbage

Maybe early dandy worhols ....or garbage

[@TheDirtysouthfan]

1:05 This has to be a reference to Drill! Drill was Lucia's first band. They released one single and album which flopped and they broke up afterwards. She was on a downward spiral after they broke up and was suicidal when she got a call from Sascha asking if she would be interested in trying out for his new MDFMK project. Sascha had heard her perform with Drill a while back and was impressed by her unique vocal style and he reached out. At first she was totally deflated and openly saying she didn't think she could do it, but he was patient with her, told her that he believed in her. Her first session was intense and she ended up blowing out the microphone causing it to catch on fire, they were all deeply impressed and since then she's been with KMFDM! With that one phone call he saved Lucia, and in turn Lucia saved KMFDM. This whole album feels like it's going to be about nostalgia and letting go of your past pain, and that's pretty unique! I don't think KMFDM has made an album with such a tender theme before!

[@thruntroll2983]

I agree! Also, Drill (self titled) was actually pretty good!! Still throw on some of their tracks to this day. Some KMFDM fans love Lucia, others don't. I think she was a great addition!

[@treysimmons7707]

I think the song is the story of Lucia's life?

[@lolzy684]

Drill was good but I'm glad she got into kmfdm

[@Simon-yq3bc]

He should have retired her after 2004. He didn't and the band became more dull and stale since then.

[@BlackWolflord]

That must be one of my favorite KMFDM songs. I really dig the Garbage feeling of it. It's uncanny how Lucia sometimes sounds like Shirley Manson.

[@Fujikoma3x222]

Garbage is good, I didn't realize it back in the day when that music was popular, but later, when I actually listened to it, I realized, it's good stuff.

[@rickacton7540]

@@Fujikoma3x222 so you criminally underrated Garbage, huh?

[@MrClawt]

This what I love about KMFDM, every song is unique.

[@ChristopherMichael-dw4wt]

Damn I'm hypnotized by the nostalgia of this!!! Didn't know they were still making music, but man this one is a feel good song and track. Flashback to the 80's with KMFDM!!! 💯

[@EmilyJackCO]

Funny how everything comes full circle. I learned of KMFDM way back in those early days of MTV, when I would record and send these same featured videos (I remember RATT specifically) to friends at Air Force Bases in Germany. They would either bring or send back audio tapes with hours of German music. And yeah - I've been with them allllll these years. There's been songs that define me, rebuilt me, and are now making me rise from the ashes of myself yet again. This album track and album couldn't have come at a more perfect time. The last time I had to rebuild was around the release of Tohuvabohu. 40 freakin years, my friends. I only wish I was able to, in this new form, to come out to see them.... but the immune system said FU the first time I took my mask off in a doctor's office last week. Not sure I'll be able to return to live shows, but my faith remains in science, especially since I'm still here.

[@mr.sophistication3232]

lol do you have an HIV/compromised immune system or still wearing a mask which does nothing to stop the spread of the virus from 🇨🇳 . If it’s b/c of Wuhan keep that mask on so we know who’s an obedient little dog collaborator for the establishment. If you have HIV I’m sorry to hear it and rock on 🤘🏻

[@themindofanerd]

I learned of them from an anime movie...and Mortal Kombat

[@TonyGonzales]

It is a big circle, isn't it? My time stationed at Ramstein in the late 90's brought me closer to KMFDM though I was plugged into them before leaving the states. Good times, and I'm glad to hear this new output.

[@User28504]

You saw many important moments your live than me. I not lived in this time, I born in this time and I missing now.

[@thelegendofner0]

Get Well soon and KMFDM SUCKS!!!

[@metalexile]

Love to see KMFDM feeling bold enough to not only do a great slower tune like this, but highlight it as a single. Even as a fan of the heavier stuff, I love to see it. KMFDM’s slower work is under-appreciated.

[@RCA_Dome]

The Problem is better song than this crap

[@drp1bb856]

As much as I miss the days of NIHIL, ANGST, NAIVE I’m happy they are around still making music. The NIHIL days were something. I still have my IN YOUR FACE tour t shirts. I don’t know if it was actual touring or they would just pop up in NYC, but we saw them several times in a 2 year span. Tough call, but the shows at Limelight and Roseland were the best. One of the Roseland shows a cop attending off duty lost his gun and we were kicking it around. We didn’t know what it was at the time all we knew is that something on the floor was making it annoying to stand lol.

[@ningunners]

I was at Roseland, Limelight and later Irving Plaza show...they are always GREAT....miss the harder edge with PIG though...

Looking at this just makes you realize how dead the world is now. We like to think we're living in such "advanced" times..but the world is nothing more than a comatose patient being kept alive with wires and tubes and whatever else can be stuck into a natural or artificial bodily orifice. Other than that, the song is top notch. Feel like it'll be an immediate repeat once I get the album going the first time.

Well that was nostalgic. I think the 80s and the 90s was probably one of the best times to be alive. One of the best times to be a kid. I can't speak for the 70s since I was born in 1980. Older generations probably think the same thing about their generation. Idk, as crazy and screwed up and insane as my young life was I just think it was a great time to be alive. And as insane and crazy and screwed up as my life was, I choose to remember all the good times and not dwell so much on those bad times. I tell you though the music was one of the great things that got a lot of us through all the times. The good and the bad. The sad, the depressing, the happy and glamorous and fun times. I'm not sure if there's any more new kmfdm songs. I just got this one in my feed today, just mow. Says it uploaded 6hrs ago. I just told my husband that I thought KMFDM stopped making music back in the early 2000s and turned into mdfmk. I tell you I'm here for it though. So, Thanks. Put a smile on my sad face.( Dog needs surgery and its heartbreaking so this made me feel happy and kinda sad, missing what used ro be, for a few) We are here now. And i bet in 20-30 years we will look back at this time and miss it. Be thankful. Life is a gift. No matter how tuough it gets we are here, given this chance. And i find solace in that.
