I didn't realise they kept going for years recycling the same tracks onto different compilations. There were some bands who as far as I can tell only existed to do lovely filler tracks for those comps because I never heard of them anywhere else

You know, I'd be less worried about my 16 year old daughter dating a successful 40 year old cartoonist than dating a 16 year old loser.

I mean, Jesus, kid, at least date a motherfucker with abortion money and house to have sex at where your mother and I don't have to hear it. Also, if he treats her poorly, boom, that asshole's gonna catch a statch charge.

Please, John K. Date my daughter... Save her from dating smelly dropouts who wanna-be Soundcloud rappers.

I picked up Front 242's 1993 duo gently caress UP EVIL/EVIL OFF at a used record store the other day. These albums... aren't very good, are they? I'm trying to place myself in the timeframe they were released in to be fairer:

* The current NIN album was Broken. TDS was next year.
* The current FLA album was TNI. Millennium was also 1994 (I could have sworn it was 93)
* Skinny Puppy's Last Rights came out in 1992
* KMFDM's ANGST came out the same year

Even with grading on a curve, these two albums seem awfully generic. The first one at least sort of sounds like an updated F242 sound, but if you hadn't told me Evil Off was by them I would never have guessed. Not a shock that they kind of fizzled out after that.

In my opinion Front 242 goes downhill from the start. Luckily Geography is one of the best albums ever made.

Cleopatra Records is just doing a service by making Epidemic by FLA available. You can either listen to it on Circuitry, or you can listen to it on:

or you can listen to Apop's Fade to Black cover, found on 11 compilations

In equally ridiculous news, my three-year-old asked to listen to the "want it need it" song today, which as it turns out is Aesthetic Perfection's "The New Black". Cripes

edit: and as it turns out, there's not a single curse word on the entire "'Til Death" album. Good?

The Facebook post is a sea of former readers coughing up their own skulls in disgust. If you go down the FB page a bit, you'll see bands thanking Side-Line for putting them on Face The Beat vol 4. Bet they're loving delighted to be associated too now ...

Yes! I caught some of their set at Day for Night a few weeks ago. If you are in to Youth Code and that raw "early 80's" sound, then they are definitely worth checking out.

You guys are going to laugh at me but I didn't know Delerium was just Rhys Fulber and Bill Leeb. They made a new album back in September and of course like all Delerium it's mostly electro-, very little -industrial. If anything it sounds a bit like the Airmech album and vocal trance music had a little baby album (a whole two JES tracks!) but there are some definite FLA influences which shine through now and then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSaq-LNp1BE if you want to listen to the first track, "Blue Fires". If that's not Airmech enough for you, Airmech 2 is supposedly nearing release within a few months.

I've been a big Delerium fan ever since the release of their 1997 album, Karma. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work – too artsy, too intellectual. I think "Silence (DJ Tiësto's In Search Of Sunrise Remix)" was the group's undisputed masterpiece; it's an epic meditation on intangibility.

Nostalgia time! I wrote a rambling retrospective on Doublevision Present: Cabaret Voltaire from 1982. One of the first long-form VHS music tapes. A classic at the time and still good now.

Pretty much nothing from it is actually up on the video sites, but you can at least still buy the DVD version. Here's the one track I've managed to find, "This Is Entertainment". That severe moire was deliberate. (The rest of the compilation is more visually interesting.)

This is the debut album for Missing In Stars, some guy called Dan from Wisconsin. Industrial EBM pop that pays attention to all parts of that. It's shockingly good - starts solidly attention-catching out the gate, doesn't let up. I wrote a gushing review too. Anyone heard of this guy?

I know we're getting a bit off-topic here, but whenever I listen to stuff like this I also inevitably end up putting on Tangerine Dream's 1972 album, Zeit. It's dark, and ambient, before that was a specific genre:
