World Domination
Kompressor in Action (
aka Kompressor,
aka Andreas K)
World Domination, Kompressor in Action's
first 'real' (non-demo) album was released in 2001, followed by
Crush Television in 2002. Consisting mostly of intelligent and
humourous (if garbled) lyrics over harsh Industrial beats
(Kompressor's bio lists
instruments used as being 'SYNTH, CRUSH, FEAR, DEATH'), World
Domination is the sort of album one listens to initially just for
laughs. Soon, though -- soon Kompressor takes
control of your life.
World Domination is a solid album, at all times musically
interesting. Fans of Einstürzende Neubauten, Ministry, KMFDM, Tool, and Nine Inch Nails especially
should make a point to check it out.
Two of the songs included on this album were written for Song Fight
(Midnight Rendezvous and Kompressor Does Not Dance were Kompressor's second and third Song Fight submissions,
respectively). Neither won.1
Additionally, two of Kompressor's five most
popular Public Service Announcement songs can be found on this
album: Adding Up Numbers and Never Talk to Strangers. Vitamins
are Good, Brush Your Teeth, and Do Not Play With Fire can be found on Crush Television.
Each of these twelve songs (as well as many others) are available for
download in mp3 format from

1 Kompressor may take offense at my
wording -- certainly,
Kompressor could not be
thought to '
submit' to anything... On
Kompressor's bio page, under '[Musical]
Influences', there's an
emphatic 'NO.'
