Front by Front is an album by Front 242, released in 1988, and has been labelled as "easily one of the greatest industrial albums ever made".[2] The album was reissued in 1992 by Sony Music Entertainment. The song "Headhunter" became an industrial dancefloor hit, accompanied by a music video directed by Anton Corbijn, and has since been subject to over 20 remixes.
Miss Kittin used "First In / First Out" on her mix album A Bugged Out Mix.[3]
