There are tons of "Sisters Clones" out there, but one that I feel gets overlooked a lot is The Merry Thoughts. Yeah, the vocal style is very similar to Eldritch's, but I think the instrumentation is quite a bit different and sounds more like a later 2nd wave act like Rosetta Stone than Sisters.

Anyway, I think they're pretty cool. Cliche lyrics, etc. but I think it works pretty well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7uB1D4V4qc

In better news Project Pitchfork is working on a new album that'll be released at the end of summer and will be titled Quantum Mechanics. Also another Santa Hates You album for us Spilles-obsessed bastards.

Goddamn, if Quantum Mechanics turns out to be anywhere close as good as Continuum Ride I'll probably just poo poo my loving pants. Continuum Ride was gooooooooood.

The new Skinny Puppy is done and is called hanDover

The title sounds very OhGr-ish like everything else these days.

On the brighter side Ogre and Rave are back on good terms even if cEvin and Rave might not be.

Nope, I'm Canadian. But I played a show in AZ in the fall, and Colleen was DJing. So now she's my buddy and occasional fake girlfriend.

Dead When I Found Her is pretty good, as well as 16Volt of course. Dead Animal Assembly plant wasn't bad, reminded me somewhat of Angelspit. There is this one 40-year-old goth dude in Portland who does really, really terrible industrial music and in his videos he drinks blood with his girlfriend, if you want a laugh.

Its all FLstudio. I played Mario Paint alot. It's just taken an eternity to figure out how to not make it sound like it. Also my computers are never really powerful so I have to work within a bunch of limitations.

Edit - also Dean Garcia helped with the songwriting so they might have sucked without him

Yep. Been helping here and there for the last couple years. I've met a lot of people in the scene that were really influential in shaping my sound growing up, some said they might be down to help finish this album, I feel very privileged :)

Speaking of, I'm working on the youtube art. It's coming along nicley, but they still scream "generic industrial band" so I got a few ideas to tinker with. All the empty space is reserved for a background photo of me cosplaying some anime catboy thing with a guitar. Spent all drat night on these, might as well show them before I throw them out:

The Fez and Plan B have ok goth nights I guess. I'm not really into dressing goth and poo poo so I'm not super experienced in the scene.

And I can't remember the guy's name at the moment. It was something super ridiculous like Azreal Stein or whatever. I'll ask my friend who remixed some of his awful songs (and made them tolerable) what he is called. He covered Einstürzende Neubauten and it's so, so bad.

Also, don't do the anime cat boy thing. If you must have some anime reference get something from the 80's, or something in the 90's that still took itself seriously.

Those are the old symbols I just had them on hand. The symbols are now currently the 8 Bit ones. My fake band needs that extra layer of weird so I spent the last year making a fanime charecter. I won't do anything unless I know for sure I can without it looking stupid, I made a hilariously bad music video a few years ago that will forever remind me how not to do something.

I've done so many remakes I have no idea whats the original you're referring to but nothings finalized I can just tweak something. Thanks for the feedback, I'm going to be treading some dangerous ground but I like it so:

Just now noticed, no it wasn't intentional. God drat that's embarrassing. Ooh and I got some more ideas.

Edit 2, now it's getting there. It's doing that thing where it makes me feel uneasy looking at it like it's hipster bullshit, so I know I'm doing this right. I don't suppose anyone knows where to find some good emo textures?
