Laibachkunstderfuge is an album by the industrial band Laibach, released in 2001. The album is a conceptual work that reinterprets Johann Sebastian Bach's 'The Art of Fugue' through Laibach's unique industrial and neoclassical lens. It showcases the band's signature mix of martial industrial soundscapes, heavy use of synthesizers, and choral arrangements, creating a powerful and haunting interpretation of classical music. The album is notable for its philosophical depth and commentary on art, culture, and totalitarianism, reflecting the band's longstanding exploration of these themes.
