Babby Sathanas posted:FLA are replacing VNV turns out. Someone from FLA said on FLA's Facebook that it's not happening because it would've been too expensive and too difficult to record the show properly. Makes sense, a couple of years back there was the whole thing with the recordings of the classical shows with VNV Nation and Blutengel turning out unusable. Blutengel just decided to do their own afterwards, and I think VNV Nation were going to make one as well? Who knows, maybe FLA'll join them at some point. Would be hella sweet.

Hmm, Pomona isn't THAT far away, so maybe I will go to that show after all. I missed Skinny Puppy last year for the first time since I started following them. (A baby sort of monopolizes your life....)

The more I hear about the tour, the more bummed I get about being broke and living in NB. Edit: On the plus side, I filled out the contact form on the Haujobb the other day about an interview, and from what their booker replied with, it's looking like I have an interview with them on my show after the tour's done.

Noisey write up on High Functioning Flesh, and also the general rise of new industrial. http://noisey.vice.com/blog/high-functioning-flesh However, HFF sounds super dated. They're compared to Youth Code a lot in the article, but those guys are on a whole different level.

I like HFF, but when Vice start talking about "the scene" and how "they made it cool to step into this space" I start to feel old. There's a civil war going on in industrial maaaan. For these critics, I'm just confused by it all. The music is not as important as how the music allows the listener or the writer to project an image of themselves through listening to it, which my autistic brain thinks is very weird.

CAT rear end now!!! posted:But why FLA seems to have one tempo, a couple bassline variations, a single song structure, not much in the way of dynamics, and the dumbest lyrics. When I'm in the mood for FLA it somehow all works beautifully (Leeb really knows how to play within his very strict boundaries), but when I'm not it all just sounds like the same ingredients fighting for space over and over, like the Taco Bell of industrial music. I say this as someone who's got every mainline album they've put out and has no intention of stopping any time soon.

neodustrial albums you say? C.3.3. is a personal project from Paul Jamrozy co-founder of original industrial agitators Test Dept. The work is inspired by the real life experience of Her Majesty’s Prison Reading. Tracing the history of the location through to the present current political and social situation, evoking the harsh realities of Victorian and modern day Britain. The title C.3.3. is drawn from the cell number where the literary figure Oscar Wilde was incarcerated in Reading Gaol under gross indecency charges. C.3.3. was the pseudonym used for the publication ‘The Ballad of Reading Gaol’ a poem based on the execution of a fellow inmate.

mennoknight posted:Attak being someone's teenage nostalgia makes me feel older than En Esch. Just gonna crank Cum and be like, oooooooh that's good Attak was when I was in 10th grade, I still remember freshman year before in the computer lab, reading the open positions Sascha posted on the kmfdm site after he announced they were officially back. david_a posted:It could be that after a certain dose of their albums, no matter where you start, you reach your maximum lifetime limit of KMFDM and lose interest in them. I think I hit my limit with ADIOS. There's something about Nihil that you can't nail one specific element it just all comes together just so well. I actually like it quite a bit more now than when I first heard it years ago. I remember reading somewhere that XTORT was started with the scraps left over from Nihil, but I like XTORT way more. Nihil seems like a polished containment of everything an album called "Nihil" should encompass, but I love XTORT more because it sounds like that containment is starting to unravel, see Dogma, Son of a Gun. I think the "best" KMFDM album if you have to give the gold stamp to one has to be Symbols. Ironically that was the album that made Sascha want to stop KMFDM to begin with if memory serves. There was enough atmospheric and different ideas that the album leaves you feeling like it was made by a band, a great band of people that tried really hard to make something that sounded different. Talking to alot of people from that scene and era, the 90s were really the last time the genre made an attempt to "push the boat out" before the genre really got too comfortable and started taking itself for granted with the by-the-numbers sound and imagery Pope Guilty posted:Hey, grats, man! Good to see you doing well. Any news on your album? What you released ruled and then we stopped hearing about it. Thank you! I wouldn't say well exactly but much better, trying to stay on medications  . There is no creativity in Alaska and I spent summer in a garage attempting to do vocals again but it was a nightmare trying to make art around a bunch of DJs who know nothing about actually recording music so I'm going to bite the bullet and get a kickstarter ready for right after the holidays. Once I can afford to scream where there's no noise complaints and a computer that can handle more than one layer of instruments at a time I'm bolting like Sonic to the finish line and getting this fucker out of my head and onto a CD.I uploaded a collection of songs on youtube as a proto-demo album with a really bad vocal take at the end. These are tracks that I got a little help from Dean Garcia on and stuff I did while being present while WTF?! was coming together. KMFDM thinks it has promise and it's very very slowly starting to come together as a whole: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLvnIc1GMNE When it's done it will be called Hyper-Violent Porno Cartoon. This will be the tracklist and it will be my favorite industrial rock album ever: 01 You Will Know My Name 02 gently caress Kill Burn 03 Wiegenlied 04 The Prettiest Color 05 I Want Out 06 Love Me gently caress Me Hate Me Rape Me 07 IDGAF 08 A Special Hell Awaits People Like You 09 La<3nder 10 First Storys End

There is a new The Birthday Massacre album out, it's ok I guess? They're definitely moving back in the right direction from the kind of boring chuggy guitars from the last couple albums I think, but most of the songs just seem to get a little bogged down. Then again I miss the bouncy pop atmosphere of their first few albums so what do I know! e: it's up on Spotify if you do Spotify, there's also the full album on Youtube but that's of questionable legality/ethics

I prefer Kollaps to Silence is Sexy, but Halber Mensch is also awesome as poo poo. EN is the go-to band i point people to when they go "that's interesting..." when I'm listening to industrial. But Kolaps is more "industrial" than electro-industrial, and sorta predated the new-wave influence on industrial music. But the new EN album is loving awesome, and i dunno if i should go on about it here, the goth thread, or where, but it is fantastic and needs to be listened to. And I wouldn't mind a full length action movie based off of that new blutengel video, but has blutengel done anything new or different over the years? They still sound like "generic german industrial that listened to way too much rammstein"

A lot of the appeal for me is the ridiculous shtick. Like Lady Gaga or something. Wait, what happened to her? Huh. Her big thing coming up was singing aboard the Virgin Galactic spaceship sometime early next year. Well, the spaceship blew up two weeks ago so I'm guessing that's out.
