Best album by Oomph!

"This is really the best album by this German band. The previous releases "Unrein" and "Plastik" were great, but they lacked something. "Ego" shines with incredible ideas and arrangaments. Just listen to the grandiose tracks "Drop The Lie", "Bitter", "Atem", "Swallow", "Rette Mich" or the single "Supernova"... Brilliant gothic/electro rock with phantastic melodies! People often compare Oomph! to Rammstein, but I don't see many parallels, 'cause in my opinion Rammstein produce silly music and never will be able to create such deep and emotional music. If you are looking for more intelligent and artistic modern rock, this one is for you!"

Good Industrial-Metal!

"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."

Great stuff!

"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!"
