You'd have to be naive not to own this., Dec 19 2006

I own the original pressing of this cd and to preserve it, I'll most definitely purchase this one. Sascha and En Esch hold true and create probably one of their best albums to date. I've been a fan of them for years and own several of their albums, but this one is up on my top faves by them. Industrial roots come together and shine through this album and is worth the purchase. Liebeslied, Godlike and Go to Hell are intense tracks to listen to.

A welcome reissue, minus the Orff sample..., Dec 24 2006
By Tarkus - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Naive (Audio CD)
The original version of 'Naive' had to be yanked from the shelves due to an uncleared sample of Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana" being used in "Liebeslied." A subsequent "cleaned" version, 'Naive - Hell to Go,' was released, and both eventually went out of print. Now, we have a compilation of sorts - the entirety of the original 'Naive' MINUS the Orff sample (ergo the "edit" designation on "Liebeslied") and the unique tracks from the 'Naive - Hell to Go' album. Still, this reissue sounds great, although I'm still holding onto my previous version of 'Naive,' if only to give the Orff people a middle-finger salute.

GODLIKE, Mar 11 2007
By Alex Steinback - Published on Amazon.com

KMFDM is rereleasing all their back catalog... with bonus tracks. This has 5 extra tracks compared to the original Naive, and they are the remixes from the Naive/Hell to Go album. I like that in this album, the continuity and flow of the tracks is incredible, same as the old one. The sample on Liebeslied isn't there, and it's a shame, because I think the sample added so much. It can probably be found on eBay or something... just look around!
Definitely a must have for any KMFDM fan, with great tracks like "Naive" "Go to Hell" "Virus" "Godlike" and "Liebeslied".
If you even like indusrial music period, buy this. You won't be disappointed.
