Fact of the matter is...everyone wants to blame someone when something bad happens. Just don't blame the parents, it's alot easier to blame music and video games. Why should we expect the parents to get involved in their kid's lives? lol I can't even dignify this with a defense for KMFDM, or music in general, the fact that people are even talking about it is ridiculous. Parents are responsible for their children, damn sure responsible for their premeditated behaviour.
@MrBruce2985 Yeah I've been listening to KMFDM even before I heard about columbine. I think the media is a FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT for blaming Marilyn Manson!!! Those kids didn't even listen to him! The media fuckin made that up. The columbine killers said in their journal that they would come BACK FROM THE DEAD to HAUNT anyone who blamed ANYTHING BUT THEMSELVES! And look at this shit, they blame VIDEO GAMES, MUSIC, MOVIES, MARILYN MANSON?!!!!!?! What the fuck is wrong with this world? RIP Reb & V
@Carolyn669 Because no one in Germany listens to KMFDM... maybe a few, but they are much more popular in the states. Of course I'm not saying that KMFDM are responsible, that would be madness. To me, it makes a lot more sense that Eric and Dylan turned to this type of music because of their desire to kill, rather than the other way round. However, such logic is preposterous in the sensationalist media that, unfortunately, succeed at brainwashing the majority, that crave for such stupidities.
@Carolyn669 KMFDM's music wasn't responsible for that, you can't blame murder on music. But haven't you heard about the Winnenden school shooting, 2009?
A friend pointed me to this song, he heard one of my rants about humans vs people and told me to listen.
I've now found a band i love, and i dont say those words lightly when it comes to music. They have something to say if you take your head out of your ass and listen.
@Youtiubeer No they didn't. They actually quoted the majority of the tune "D.I.Y.", so stop talking out of your ass... And before you ask, yes, I was there and visited their page before the man shut it down. KMFDM had fuck all to do with those twits, and it's the Columbine kids fault, and their fault alone, for taking shit out of context. It's the fault of the media for being a bunch of saps and grasping at the first available straw so they could generate viewer numbers becacuse they're greedy.
this is on great band,god I fell in love with them.They are crazzy but they make sense.Love u guys! you guys rock this house ,bring it down! YES BABY! I LOVE THIS SONG KEEP ON GOING KEEP ON GOING KEEEP IT REAL- KEEP IT REAL!!!!! THIS SONG RIPPS!!!!!!KEEP IT UP -LETS GET GOING!!!! THIS IS RWAL as real can be.YEs it is .
this is on great band,god I fell in love with them.They are crazzy but they make sense.Love u guys! you guys rock this house ,bring it down! YES BABY!
"Let's stop saying 'don't quote me' because if no one quotes you, you probably haven't said a thing worth saying" has to be my favourite quote of all time. KMFDM did a great collaboration with her.
@Artifphlex its a shame that you believe that the will of humankind is so weak that a simple song can make a person so angry at the human race that they will %100 definately go on a killing spree
@utubefreak101 Have your read the Manifesto, I think even he would disagree with you. One of Mr Una's many concerns with society was the fact that other people will always impact your existence. He rambled about 2 pages worth how his neighbor mowing his lawn was a massive disruption....
If you all like Nicole, look up Recoil's first album (there are a few tracks with NB on it, then entire thing is perfect though). Also check out Golden Palomino's "Dead Inside". It is all poetry featured in NB's 'Blood Sugar' collection. <3 She's one of my favorite writers.
@ONInonymous That is my favorite line for the hippy new age "turn the other cheek" behavior or "no I don't hate someone I just feel sorry for them" because only 'bad' people hate people, when it's human to hate as mucha s it is to love.
@TheSickHumanBeing The woman is Nicole Blackman, a spoken-word artist and poet. The lyrics come from her piece "Indictment" and the vocals on this song are her only collaboration with KMFDM, as far as I'm aware.
All you guys arguing about Columbine and religion should just shut up. You didn't know them personally so you probably don't know for certain what they are thinking. Seeing as how you're still alive I doubt you've seen what happens beyond the grave.
If you have a belief about either topic good for you. I can respect that. The thing is none of that is absolute fact so just let it go and enjoy the music.
If they think they relate to what they know or at least what they think they know I can respect that. My point is that they should stop acting like immature 13 year olds and just get over it. I guess there's a distinct possibility they are 13. Anyway they should just shut up and enjoy the music.
@ShortGuy1792 lol now they are all argueing about lady gaga and how the sky is their least favorite color blue which it is why cant it been green for fucks! sake green is awesome color i even painted my room green can anyone tell me why it has to be blue?
@ShortGuy1792 Anybody ignorant enough to say that KMFDM was a causal force behind the Columbine massacre understands the band's message about as well as the shooters themselves did and is clearly "so poor they can't even pay attention". ;3
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
If they could come back, the first thing they would do is drink a gallon of water and go to sleep for a week, and when they wake up they would be asking for forgiveness and would be preaching the word of Gog, after spending more than 10 years in a terrible place called Hell, a place of torment, no air to breathe, no rest, surround in darkness as thick as water, unbearable heat, what ever you were afraid of on earth is what your tormented by.
And to you, if Dylan and Eric were here they would blow your brains out because they would find you pathetic for worshipping something out of yourself. Wake up. I love R&V as much as you, but being a fan lke you are would just disapoint and piss them off. IMHO. Be yourself, like R&V did, I mean love em' and all but this is rediculous. This is what I would say to the world. Not just them.
You have obviously missed the point of the song, then. The song criticizes the passive attitude that people in our society have where we buy into things and wait for a savior.
We're pathetic and apathetic and we complain about our problems and wait for them to go away.
If you ever want things to change you have to do something about it, not just wish it away.
@SZ19891993 why is everyone comparing good music to Lady Gaga? as if she's the only one person in the history of music to be the ONLY GREATEST ARTIST... ugh! AMERICAN SOCIETY SUCKS ...
@Frottagecub cause i cant believe people go after jonas,lady gaga,and bieber and leave away a lot of legends in rock/metal music (iron maiden or beatles for example)
fortunatley,not all people act this way,but this,i mean,commercial music,has always worried me a bit lol...if KMFDM was on mtv,now they were famous all over the world,but the problem is that...if you put a band on mtv,90 percent of people will like it just because of the logo mtv...
