Don't Blow Your Top is industrial rock group KMFDM's third album. The album was recorded in Hamburg, Germany, with Adrian Sherwood. It was released in 1988 in Germany by Cash Beat Records (Hamburg), in the UK by SkySaw Records, and in the US by Wax Trax.
A remastered reissue of Don't Blow Your Top was released on September 12, 2006, featuring new liner notes and photos of the band.
All songs written and composed by En Esch and Sascha Konietzko unless otherwise noted.
Andy Hinds from Allmusic said that Don't Blow Your Top "sounds a little flimsy when compared to the band's pile-driving later work", and that it sounds "like a combination of early Meat Beat Manifesto, Twitch-era Ministry, and even...the more primitive stuff of Alien Sex Fiend."
