I'm really enjoying the new Skinny Puppy as well. I feel like it has taken most of the good parts of TGWOTR and Mythmaker. Although my introduction into the band was a combination of Rabies and TGWOTR so maybe I have a slightly different perspective to the other fans.

For those following the literal hellstorm of controversy of rivethead dudes arguing about if sexism is bad or not, ID:UD interviewed a few women to ask them how they feel about the whole thing.

Thanks for the link.

As someone who doesn't know anything about the industrial scene, what is the general makeup of the scene? Demographically speaking. Have there just not been any dissenting opinions to this stuff because there is no diversity?

After thinking about this since you posted your video I really started to wonder why it has taken so long to have this conversation. I've never really listened to the bands used as an example, so after having a look around in the weeks since your video I'm amazed this hasn't really come up yet.

They are still capable of plastering skulls to the ceiling live, so I am perfectly OK with whatever sound they have on this record. I figure it will be a natural progression from Handover, so I'm ok with cEVIN's hyperactive keyboards and nu-style vocals from Ogre.

I never saw Ogre's first solo tour, but I cannot imagine it being a superior live experience to the Devils in my Details tour. That was a really great thing. What do you guys specifically not like about the albums after Welt?

I actually thought that Devils in my Details was their strongest album to date. It creates an atmosphere and tension that I still can't quite describe but is totally compelling each time I listen to it. So much variety from track to track while never sounding out of place with the whole of the album.

SunnyPsyOp was the opposite for me though, very jarring differences between the good and the bad.

Hah, a goon does work there, but I don't think so. It was really random, and loud at the bar, took me a while to make sure I wasn't crazy. I'm not even sure it was Seabound now, but definitely Spinnath's voice. I'm pretty sure it wasn't even a regular album track as I should have easily recognised it. I was excited because I've literally never heard anything remotely electro-industrial outside a club or my own home.

In other news, I really like their song on Dependence 2013:

In my lame opinion, Seeming was easily the most intelligent and well thought out album released this year, probably the past 5-10 years. Maybe that's not enough for most folks, but Christ almighty the thought and intelligence put into 99% of industrial lyrics now are "You are my diseeeasse" + distortion pedal + dance beat. And no, it wasn't always that way. It used to be thought-provoking. experimental and unpredictable. Anyway I don't share the exact same tastes as ID:UD myself but I can definitely see why they picked that album.

I think it was actually what I was hoping for from Speak in Storms. So yeah, great album.

Edgar Froese died today.

I saw him live score Sorcerer a couple of months ago, and it was a hell of an experience. Tangerine Dream were an amazing band that probably had a lot of influence on most of the stuff in this thread.

DWIFH posted this earlier and it seemed about right.

I'd have nothing against the guitars if they were played by persons cabable of more than drop tuned chugs on the lowest string. White noise would be about just as interesting. Other thing is if youre going to use distorted guitars you'll need to atleast doubletrack them and add a bass, otherwise it'll just sound weak/wrong. Doing so also takes a lot of the frequency content and you'll lose space for the interesting stuff.

I'm still mad at the 90's industrial rock garbage.

While I quite like the '90s industrial rock garbage, I've found myself drawn time and time again to Jaher off that Skinny Puppy album that everyone hates for that exact reason. A really interesting clean guitar lick that gives the rest of the track a chance to breath and have some real atmosphere.

CAT rear end now!!! posted:

it isn't

1997 ;)

But yes it's such a good album, one of my personal favorites from the band. Couple of weaker links there, like Temptation and Tower of Lust, but jesus christ that opening salvo of Human Crossing / 2069 AD / Malicious Delight is one of my all-time favorite opening trios of songs, then there's God Wrote (insane live track) and December Sadness and just a bunch of really really excellent stuff. Too bad the album has to end with that sub-par Vangelis cover, it just doesn't fit on the album at all. Celeste would be a perfectly fine ending.

It's an especially interesting album coming straight after Alpha Omega. It just sounds so organic and weird and, like you said, very much like its own thing. I know you love that album, but lol if you try tell me Eon:Eon has anything on the sound on Chakra:Red.

I can't believe you haven't seen them live, though, I thought you had? It's definitely worth it, Pitchfork is an incredible band live.

Human Crossing is one of my favourite songs of all time let alone the rest of that album.

The problem is all these guys are old as gently caress now. I'm in my mid-30s and I'm almost completely disconnected with the pop and music zeitgeist, and most of the big industrial acts are a generation beyond me. You can tell they were really trying with The Greater Wrong of the Right and Welt with Ogre's chopped up rapping, but after the fan reaction to that they seemed to just go gently caress it and went to churning out some paint-by-the-numbers Skinny Puppy albums.

Frozen Sky was the best post-Process stuff Skinny Puppy does, and I think it killed everyone inside when they teased the reunion with that and then came out with break-dancing goths and TGWotR.

I really like both Frozen Sky and TGWotR. Also Weapon. And some things from Mythmaker. It's all good.

Really digging it. And just realized that Warmech was the last album Jeremy Inkel worked on. I hope he's producing slick beats in the big Vancouver in the sky. RIP.

And in related news Rhys Fulber will be releasing an ablum under his own name. The track I've heard sounds pretty sweet: http://www.releasemagazine.net/rhys-fulber-to-release-solo-album-with-body-techno/

Can't see any other discussion on Warmech but it's been out on Spotify for a few weeks. It's fantastic. I probably don't love it as instantly as Airmech but it's still really good.
