100This [is] all the Kraftwerk you need, if you didn't need all the Kraftwerk ever made. [Jul/Aug 2005, p.106]
-
90As a career overview Minimum-Maximum far surpasses The Mix. This record's "importance" in the Kraftwerk story is up for debate, but there's no question it's a hell of a lot of fun.
-
90Magnificent. [Jul 2005, p.100]
-
90Cut, copy and paste this definitive record into your world. [Jul 2005, p.115]
-
Nearly everything on Minimum-Maximum sounds astoundingly fresh.
-
Emphatically validates just how fresh and alive Kraftwerk's heavily manipulated compositions sound.
-
90Not just for followers, Minimum-Maximum is perfect for the old-school, drawing a new crowd of robot poppers and maybe convert a few disbelievers.
-
One of the best live albums that NME has ever heard.
-
80Minimum Maximum is the sound of Kraftwerk shedding all previous skins and staking their claim on the now. [Jul 2005, p.106]
-
80This is really a missing Greatest Hits in disguise. [Jul 2005, p.118]
-
As you'd expect from a band as clockwork tight and renowned for perfectionism as Kraftwerk, the quality of sound and precision of delivery is so spot-on as to be worthy of a studio recording.
-
80Sound-wise, the music is reminiscent of the sleek electronic architecture of 1986's Electric Café, while the tracks differ from their previously known versions mainly in featuring cleaner, punchier digital sounds.
-
80Attest[s] to the group's pummeling might off vinyl. [#16, p.87]
-
Kraftwerk still sounds great.
-
Visuals are such a crucial aspect of their performances that the set will naturally fall short of making you feel as if you are there.
-
70Minimum-Maximum is essentially a greatest-hits album with an audience applauding and occasionally shouting.
-
60So what's the problem? It's too, uh, perfect.

ChristianP10For true KW fans. A fantastic comiplation of favorites, including Autobahn & Robots but "souped-up" with modern bass. A must for all.

JohnnyS9This is very fun and catchy music. It is also surprisingly trascendant and beautiful at times. Those without a sense of humour look elsewhere.
