The title of track 1 is just a non-standard symbol on the release. At the band's homepage and the KMFDM store homepage the track appears as '(Symbol)'. The title 'Up Uranus' appears when this CD is played with an audio player that is connected to the internet. In addition it can be figured out from the lyrics, where said symbol appears as well.

Short intro

Blitz is German industrial rock group KMFDM's sixteenth studio album, released on March 24, 2009, on KMFDM Records and Metropolis Records. It also marks the first use of five letter song titles and a five letter album title since WWIII. The album charted after its release, as did the song People of the Lie. Blitz had songs written in three different languages, and was moderately well received by critics. Most of its songs were remixed for the band's next release, Krieg.

Celebrating 25 years of the ultra-heavy beat, KMFDM proudly announces their new album on Metropolis Records, Blitz. Blitz heralds the return to the five-letter album name, an 18 year tradition that the band obliterated with their recent ten-letter name albums, Tohuvabohu and Brimborium, in 2007 and 2008.

A quarter century on and KMFDM find themselves bouncing between the industrial crunch style that best suits the voice of founder Sascha Konietzko and the dark alt-club music that seems designed for vocalist Lucia Cifarelli. Listeners with both Rammstein and Garbage in their collections should fall instantly in love with Blitz, an album that holds few surprises for the fans whove kept up with the band since the millennium turned. Good news is, if they liked what they heard, this one wont disappoint them either. Released March 24, 2009. Blitz Tracklist. Up Uranus Lyrics
