Anybody want 2 tickets to the NYC FLA show? Stuff came up, so they're up for grabs. They're in PDF form from ticketweb, and it says in the email that you don't need to be the one who bought them to get in with 'em, so I can just forward the email on. Can't get a refund or anything, so I may as well give them to someone who will use them. PM me or email me at tentaclesex @ the email service everyone uses unless they're some weirdo stuck in the 90s.

Funny, you'd think a guy who's been mastering for like fifty loving years would know his poo poo? Or maybe it was what FLA wanted? I'd guess the latter. FLA has never exactly been known for their dynamics so I wouldn't be surprised if this was what Leeb asked for.

Danger - Octopus! posted:If no one answers, I would be interested in a poo poo/not poo poo trip report, since I'm heading down to visit a friend and go out there next month. Haha well, hm. Wendyhouse is split into two rooms, one of which is like goth rock, 80s rock and synth and any old poo poo. The other room is closer (they call it the "Mutate" room lmao) to the kind of thing we want, so I just stayed in there most of the night. On a scale of Pop to Noise I'd say that Wendyhouse is Aggro at best but mostly hovers around hard dance. I mean they played the usual poo poo like Noisuf-X and X-RX, but at one point played a Scooter track. It all went tits-up about about an hour before the end as they started to play dubstep and D&B. Infact I did watch all of the cybers leave at that point, as did I. The room is pretty small as expected, but just big enough for the numbers of people dancing. Lots of seats and stuff for chilling on and the bar isn't terrible. I'll say that if you're going to go out of your way for an industrial night it's probably not a very good place to go, but if you just want some fun for a few hours it's worth it. I recommend going drunk though, it made it much less disappointing. I'll prolly go again at some point.

Haha I listened to that earlier because Caustic retweeted it. I really enjoyed it! I've always appreciated hip hop on some level so it was pretty much perfect for me. Anything with Cynanotic gets my vote. Also you've introduced me to mixcrate.com which was nice of you.

Hip-hop and industrial share a lot of DNA. They're also the only two genres of music that I listen to, so this poo poo is right up my alley. I think a less jokey approach to it could yield some excellent results, though I appreciate what you were going for here and find it fun.

There was Operation Beatbox which was all hip hop covers by industrial bands. Some good stuff, some ehhh. Not much on youtube, which surprises me. Colla Destra's Wicked is pretty good, and the Society Burning track was decent, iirc. Gonna have to get it out of storage. edit: Here, have this Clay People - Jump Around

I always enjoyed the Battery cover of "Gangsta's Paradise" off that compilation, if only for being quite far removed from the original. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBr2Wm7yPlw Arguably, it's a different aesthetic than what you would come to expect from an "industrial covers" compilation. Still. Quite fun. Was it Cleopatra that was notorious for releasing excrementable compilations of covers from bands on their roster?

I can't get enough of Inkubus Sukkubus covering Spellbound by Siouxsie and the Banshees. On a serious note, Razed in Black played his Everything's Gone Green cover during the Triton Festival and it was amazing. I actually do enjoy the majority of his covers.

I used to own a couple those tribute discs and they are uniformly terrible. Most of the time the cover only vaguely resembles the original song. There were a couple songs on the early tributes that are probably worth a listen on YouTube, like Psychic TV's cover of Set The Controls, and Download's cover of Download (the SP song).

I caught the second half of your set on Sunday and it rocked, sucks that I wasn't able to see Iszoloscope because of the ticket-line shenanigans. I think I used pretty much my worst possible dance moves in the 2nd room, my only defense is that I was four+ beers in at that point in the night. You know if there's any truth to the rumor about drama  keeping Ronan out of Bruderschaft's set? I have to admit, they were about 80 times better than I was expecting, and I was expecting them to be awesome(ly hilarious, probably).

It's incredible as well, instead of just taking the bits of music loops that comprised the music in the game they've made proper songs out of them, extending them where appropriate etc. I can't wait for the next 2 volumes.

Arguably, the remix album the Pups themselves put out wasn't much better. However, perhaps the Rhys Fulber and Gunter remixes were better appreciated here than in the extremely snotty puppy forum. I sort of enjoyed the Autchere remix, simply for being what it is.

The Autechre remix wasn't bad yeah, and actually that Gunter remix was pretty good. It was actually one of the first Skinny Puppy songs I'd heard. Yes I'm probably much younger than most the posters in this thread.

A really interesting interview with Ogre. They cover a lot of stuff, including Undeveloped, the upcoming Puppy album (it's 100% finished and just needs to be put out), horror movies, Ogre's interest in acting, living as an artist... Been on a big SP and FLA kick lately. I'm afraid that the second I get paid and get my university entrance exams out of the way I'm gonna have to spend a loving terrifying amount of money on CDs. a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 17:32 on May 30, 2011 |

Cool interview. It is good to hear the big industrial musicians are still making it by.. I mean it's not 1990 anymore and when you hear rumors like Raymond Watts is doing hot tar roofing you gotta worry how some of them are eating lunch let alone producing a new studio album. On the Litany msg board Mark Walk recently said something like "Why wait till after a show to meet your favorite industrial musicians when you can meet them as Wallmart greeters?". This was in reference to illegal downloading and how it has affected alot of artists especially with industrial being in middle ground, as in not needing to make a name for themselves, yet at the same time not playing arena shows.

Maybe if industrial hadn't shown us practically everything it had to show us by 1992 that wouldn't be the case. Also, lots of artists work dayjobs. Marilyn Manson was working a dayjob until Antichrist Superstar came out, and I'm sure there are tons more.

This is about making music in a genre that's peaked drat near 20 years ago. Honestly they're lucky they've had such a devoted scene to prop them up so long. How many New Wave bands were flipping burgers in the nineties?

Yeah? I wouldn't know as I was born early 80's so until the late 90's I never really new industrial existed and even then was never into any music scene or dare I use the word, trend. I guess I've always been under the assumption that it's been a cult-driven genre and not really a mainstream, nor profitable thing.

Considering it came out after Epitaph it made most FLA fans breathe a sigh of relief. I remember not being overly impressed by it at the time, although I don't think I had hyped myself up for an album more than I had that one (only time I've ever put an album release on a calendar.) I think it's a better album now than I did when it first came out. Probably thanks to IED  Interestingly the best (IMO) song from that album era, Sturm, is a B-side on the Vanished single. Worth grabbing. Infact all the tracks on that single are brilliant, Uncivilised is mindblowing.
