Industrial music veterans KMFDM have announced their 24th studio album, ENEMY, which is set for release on February 6, 2026, via Metropolis Records. The album will be available on 2×LP (cut at 45 RPM), CD, and digital formats. ENEMY follows the band’s 2024 full-length LET GO, continuing their decades-long stream of near-annual releases.
The first single, “Oubliette,” is slated for release on December 12th, offering an early look at the material ahead of the album’s arrival. The band describes it as one of the more melodic and dance-rock-driven tracks on the record, positioned to introduce the album’s thematic direction.
The core lineup of Sascha “Käpt’n K” Konietzko and Lucia Cifarelli remains central to the new release, alongside longtime drummer Andy Selway. ENEMY also marks the studio debut of London guitarist Tidor Nieddu, who joined the ensemble following their 40th-anniversary tour.
Additionally, Annabella Konietzko contributes her first songwriting credit to the band on the track “Yoü,” after previously appearing live with the group.
KMFDM frame the album within what they describe as a period of rising global instability, pointing to the resurgence of authoritarian politics and heightened social tension. This perspective shapes the record’s political emphasis and continues a thematic thread that has run through much of their catalog since the 1980s.
According to the press release, ENEMY spans a broad range of styles within the group’s established sound, including dance-rock, groove-based electronics, industrial metal, thrash-influenced material, funk-driven rhythms, and a dub-tinged reworking of a past track.

ENEMY arrives shortly before the band heads out on an 18-date European tour running from February 20 through March 12, 2026, with shows across Germany, France, Switzerland, Italy, Eastern Europe, and Scandinavia. The run includes stops in Cologne, Paris, Milan, Prague, Berlin, and Stockholm, marking their first extensive European circuit since their 40th-anniversary celebrations. The tour will feature I Ya Toyah as the primary support act, with Jesus On Extasy joining on select dates.
Following the European dates, KMFDM are also confirmed to appear at Sick New World in the United States twice in 2026 — first at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds on April 25, and later at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth on October 24, placing the band alongside a lineup of industrial, metal, and alternative acts for the festival’s expanding multi-city footprint.
