Killing Floor (album)

Killing Floor (or /dev/null) is the eponymously titled debut studio album of Killing Floor, released on March 14, 1995, by Re-Constriction Records.

Reception
AllMusic gave Killing Floor a mixed review, crediting the quality of the Killing Floor's work even although noting that the band was adding nothing new to the industrial rock genre. Aiding & Abetting called it an effective debut for the band, saying "the production is superb, bringing the proper feel to each tune" and "nothing in the sound shrinks from exposure; all components are properly acknowledged." Fabryka Music Magazine gave the album four out of four called it the band's greatest merging of guitar driven industrial rock, electronic and coldwave music, saying "genius songs like "In Decline", "Two Dimes", "What Is the Truth?" and "Glass" should be put amongst the classic songs of industrial rock and coldwave styles." Sonic Boom commended the originality of the band and called the album one of the best dance mixed with guitar-based industrial rock albums they had reviewed.
