Fornika is the seventh studio album by German hip hop group Die Fantastischen Vier. The name does not refer to the term of fornication. It comes from a strange misspelling of a pizza delivery service person that delivered pizza to the band's studio. Though they totally misspelled the name on the doorbell ("Fornika" instead of "Wernicke" and street "Emnhof" instead of "Immenhofer"), the pizza was still delivered. The name "Fornika" is an inside-band term for "strange things".
Customers of the iTunes Store, who pre-ordered the album, also got exclusive live recordings of the band. These include:
