KMFDM marks the 20th anniversary of its formation with an ambitious North American tour, and a collection of archived music.
The outing kicks off in Canada in early October, and is scheduled to wrap up with a mid-November, two-night stand in Seattle. Details are shown below.
DJ? Accucrack will occupy the tour's sole opening slot.
Concertgoers will have an opportunity to purchase the two-disc set "KMFDM '84-'86: The 20th Anniversary Edition" at the shows. The album features a mix of rare and previously unreleased tracks, according to the band's website.
Founded in France in 1984, KMFDM has rotated through various lineups over the years. The current roster features group founder Sascha "Kapt'n K" Konietzko (vocals, keyboards/synths, drums), Lucia Cifarelli (vocals), Jules Hodgson (guitar), Steve White (guitar) and Andy Selway (drums).
In 1999, KMFDM issued an album titled "Adios," which it said at the time would be its final release. The group reunited for 2002's "Attak," and its most-recent studio set, "WWIII," surfaced a year ago. The live album "WWIII Tour 2003" followed earlier this year.
