Danger - Octopus! posted:New 3Teeth sounds absolutely identical to 90 industrial rock. Like, identical to me. If you didn't know who this was, you'd expect to find it on a late 90s/early 00s film soundtrack or compilation along with Gravity Kills, Chemlab, 16Volt and Devotion Records acts. Also that video is hilarious. It's good for industrial artists to just push it 110% with the leather jackets, wall of TV screens and oppressive riot cops. When I went to Kinetik there were big student protests and bottles getting thrown at riot cops right outside the music venue. I'd see SITD, go out for a smoke, and then *flashbang* 100 feet away. Next up, Blutengel! That's entertainment. BrutalistMcDonalds fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Aug 20, 2016 |

Help me In addition to Dead When I Found Her and Youth Code, I'd recommend V▲LH▲LL's "Shadows" EP: https://vlhll.bandcamp.com/album/shadows If you like it, check out the album it's based on, "Leaning on Shadows," even though that's not very Skinny Puppy-ish. Other than that, if you're not familiar with Skinny Puppy side projects, Download's "Eyes of Stanley Pain" is the most Puppy-ish, but from the 90s. I can't think of much else modern that evokes Skinny Puppy without being mawkish. Also from the 90s, there's Front Line Assembly's "Tactical Neural Implant," and "Hard Wired," which aren't Puppy-ish per se, but scratch the same itch for me. Haujobb's "Homes & Gardens" and "Freeze Frame Reality," too, but now I'm just recommending stuff from the same era, not necessarily modern.

So I have the issue where I'm obsessed with bands like Swans, Big Black, A Place to Bury Strangers, Einstruzende Neubauten, Pop. 1280., Cabaret Voltaire, Have A Nice Life and The Soft Moon. If industrial is considered to be just TG and poo poo, or industrial is considered to be EBM bands like VNV Nation or Combichrist, or industrial is that industrial metal craze of the 90s or whatever.... What the hell is the label or term for what I listen to? Any time you try to talk to anyone about industrial music, I've found it becomes a massive pissing contest about this very subject, and I don't want to be associated with it. So should I just describe all the bands I like as "Post Punk?"

I call it all industrial and don't give a flying fig what a "purist" wants to label it. At one time "industrial" used to be a great blanket term for a lot of varied, interesting music.

Some of that stuff is industrial, some of it is post punk and you've also got some noise rock in there. These genres have bled into each other or influenced each other at different times and there's not really a single label for all those bands that's going to please everyone. Your tastes seem to be more on the rock side of things though.

Think I posted this mix before, but: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCIojbRhBns Big detuned saw waves, lots of reverb, trap drum beats, ghostly and cabal imagery. Heard some pretty cool stuff from it, but I think it suffers the same thing as dubstep and retrowave and a lot of these other micro-genres that pop up that everything that can be done with them has been done in a couple years. Does anyone have any solid Witch House albums to check out? I mainly pick up songs here and there from youtube mixes and spotify playlists.

my interest in listening to new Crystal Castles has diminished rapidly with every new video and picture of the band since Alice Glass left. 'Deicide' was alright, I guess. Also the only "witch house" I've enjoyed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GVl4vduI8A edit: some new vaguely electro-industrial that I've been digging lately https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=facG8Lyv3Yk Bayham Badger fucked around with this message at 03:24 on Aug 22, 2016 |

The chick practically worshipped Alice Glass, tried to look like her, the whole nine yards. Though I'm not much better. The last 2 years, I've vaguely tried to look like Andy LaPlegua from Combichrist, minus the 86 tattoos.

Yeah, I heard the new album today. It was ... uh ... competently played and recorded. ANYWAY! New stuff I heard and reviewed! Darkwave (I particularly recommend the video of Dear Deer being shouty post-punks, it's still stuck in my head - "DEAR - DEER - DEAR - DEER") and SkyQode artists not actually being industrial. From the latter I particularly recommend Kromak's ability to make straight-up trance techno work for the industrial crowd, and Mirreya's singing. Also Rocknerd got Slashdotted and it was like being gummed by a senile newt.

So I loving hated Combichrist's latest album. It seems like they're trying to dip into the Hot Topic metalcore crowd. Can anyone recommend some good metal-ish aggrotech in lieu of them? I've found Nitronoise to be pretty similar.

I guess that weird retrofuture sound from Geography was a product of the times that would be hard to replicate now. It probably sounds like that due to their limitations.

To me as a listener it's pretty much the perfect record store for 2016. But what's it like for you as a musician? What I hear from the indie kids is that they don't make much money selling records on Bandcamp, but they don't make much money selling records any other way. And I see these bands and labels dumping substantial portions of their back catalogue there. So what's it like at the sharp end?

Today's substantial musical contribution: Massenhysterie, Austrian goths doing Neue Deutsche Welleish fetish cabaret with that authentic "we just bought our first MS-20" sound. A tendency to gratuitous quirkiness, but fundamentally you should know what to expect from that description. There's also a video or two.
