Has anyone seen the Thrill Kill Kult on their tour or does no one care about them anymore? I missed them when there were here and am wondering if I missed out on anything.

I saw them last time they toured like a year ago. I thought it was pretty good and I intend to see them again this time

Anyone heard about Primitive Race? So far all we know is "We're an industrial project featuring Chris Vrenna, Luc Van Acker, Raymond Watts, Chris Kniker and more! All will be revealed in good time."

Echogenetic sounds pretty good. Nothing really stands out after a few listens, but it certainly wasn't a disappointment like IED.

Those are pretty good, I've listened Quake II to death the last decade and a half.

Here is an album I've made called 13a: http://youtu.be/eLvnIc1GMNE I hope some people will like it, I'm working on making a bandcamp and stuff for it.

This is some good stuff, can't wait for the bandcamp.

So I saw Velvet Acid Christ last night. I thought with all the serious-rear end music and the corpse paint that he'd be all serious business, but he wasn't at all. The light show was pretty impressive for a 12 dollar ticket.

Saw them in Charlotte, got a double encore with Assimilate being the final track. It was a fantastic show, although Army's of the Universe sucked something fierce.

Oh god, Army of the Universe's frontman looked like Ben Stiller, but with a wallet chain down to his knees. I like how he kept trying to get the audience to do this weird hand thing, and nobody was having any of it. And then he took off his shirt. Jesus.

Not a popular opinion, but I gotta say I'm over the whole "industrial music video made up of borrowed film clips" thing. And here's why:

I think Skinny Puppy did it as a unique thing 20 years ago with Worlock. Took Ogre days of editing on an old VHS editor (and gawd those things are tricky) and at the time it worked as a cool homage to lesser-known horror and also a statement against censorship that they were up against at the time. Also while bands like Ministry and NIN did use stock footage, they also spliced in their own filmed-scenes to make it their own.

Today I feel it's simply being lazy. Because you can do SOOOO much more in 2014 with just a computer and a local film-graduate willing to work on a budget. Sky is the limit. FX can be done on any modern computer. Actors/actresses are willing to work cheap (Free actually, but I recommend compensating people, always) and even animators will work with most low budgets. You can use online forums/craigslist/internets to pretty much find anyone skilled at doing anything in the visual arts and commission them. Again, your own imagination is the limit. This was a genre made up of alot of very creative and unique videos, and rarely today do I see much original that isn't clips from popular films edited in 20-minutes on a laptop with the bands logo at the beginning.

Fake edit; This isn't a stab at 3teeth or anyone in particular. Just a rant. If anything, I wish many of these new bands would make an original video cause their awesome music deserves something original.

I don't like the idea that "real art" has to be hard. You get the same arguments out of classic/prog rock enthusiasts who poo-pooh electronic music in general.

Pig put on a pretty good show last night but honestly I liked En Esch better. It kind of bothered me that Watts needed to read his own lyrics off of a tablet for most of the show.
