Xtort (stylized as XTOЯT) is the ninth studio album by industrial rock group KMFDM. It was recorded in Chicago, Illinois, from the end of 1995 through early 1996, shortly after the death of Wax Trax! co-founder and band friend Jim Nash. Xtort features a variety of guest artists from the industrial music scene and studio musicians from other genres, but includes limited participation from core member En Esch. The album was massively promoted by TVT Records, which pressed tens of thousands of free copies of the first single, "Power". Xtort was generally well received by critics, with many calling it superlative, and is the highest charting and best-selling KMFDM album to date.
