Template:Album infobox

Nihil is an album by the German industrial music band KMFDM released in 1995 (see 1995 in music). It is largely considered by fans to be their best album, and the best example of the original KMFDM sound.

Nihil is one of the only KMFDM albums that does not feature cover artwork by pop-artist BRUTE!. Instead, the cover was designed by Francesca Sundsten, wife of drummer Bill Rieflin.
