What is this bizarro world where electro-industrial people don't know VNV Nation? I'd say their best/most accessible two are Praise the Fallen and Empires. The former still has some more ebm moments whereas the latter is pretty solid futurepop. The rest of their more recent albums are closer to Empires.

Yea... VNV Nation is one of the bigger selling shows here it seems. Empires is defiantly a good starting place. FuturePerfect would be my next suggestion. As for Combichrist, I really prefered Andy's IoC days more. But live is awesome.

If you play Doom with his songs playing, it's proven your game will be 200% more mindlessley bloody: Burn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6PkNy3qUlA Chaos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=me0h-lcd-VI Punk rear end Motherfucker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MNrMUI1I3I He was also in a band Shotgun Messiah that was hair metal until he got creative control and the band became (good) butt-metal with industrial elements I'ma Gun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwuhjP27R0M His self titled LP is from 1996 and fantastic. I havent heard his most recent one all the way through, but I heard some of it when it was being worked on and it was pretty rad as well.

Some of Skold's stuff I love because it just rocks and works perfectly (KMFDM - Anarchy, one of the songs that got me into industrial) Some of his stuff I find too pandering and emo (KMFDM - Save Me, sounds like something directly off a Linkin Park CD) I have also noticed he gets into bands on their way out, and inadvertently gained a reputation as a "band killer". It's interesting but I think it's more of him just climbing the ladder and getting higher up in the industry - and bands in their prime don't exactly hire new members/songwriters. Regardless you got to give the guy credit as he successfully worked all the way up to Marylin Manson starting from the absolute bottom.

It will be a good-rear end show. But I don't necessarily recommend the Iron Sky movie they're currently attached to.... The movie was, uhh... interesting. On the one hand, it's a big happy success and definitely a unique project in that it pretty much looks and feels like a Hollywood production even though it was made with a ridiculously tiny budget compared to them, and also in that it was partly crowd-funded, showing that there is power in fans who believe in your idea. On the other hand... it's not a fantastic movie. I was personally expecting something way funnier, seeing as the guys made Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning before this (which is genuinely hilarious throughout the whole movie), but the amount of brilliant jokes could really be counted on the fingers of one hand. The movie is also just all over the place, it seems like they really had no idea what they wanted the movie to be. Anyway, I thought Iron Sky was far from brilliant or even "very good", but alright. Kind of sad that it's more interesting as a phenomenon than as a movie. From a Laibach fan's point of view the movie is pretty drat interesting, though, because the music isn't actually the only Laibach thing that is featured in the movie. It was pretty astonishing to see Laibach's symbolism shown so prominently on the silver screen. The movie's themes also touch on a lot of very Laibachian concepts so I can definitely see why they were so interested. a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 15:44 on Apr 12, 2012 |

Thanks for finding me a bunch of music goons, I'd gotten tired of my playlists and decided to go deep on the industrial side. For content, a few songs from a band I listened to a lot when I was younger, The Kovenant(Not to be confused with Covenant or The Covenant). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kllqMOLE5JE Star by star http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUNcJgKjYPM Mirror's Paradise They've got a lot of turds, but these two I really like. Shame their new album looks to be going back to the more melodic black metal sound of their earlier albums, though I guess they're better at it.

I loving love The Kovenant. I think their best album is Animatronic, followed by SETI. Times Before the Light isn't bad either, but I have to be in a really agressive mood to listen to industrialized remixes of a black metal album. (Animatronic) New World Order - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mohtVnxVGDk (SETI) Planet of the Apes - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEK-bCxlpY4 (Times Before the Lights) The Chasm - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZNwZwEF6Aw Animatronic and SETI are two of my favorite industrial rock albums ever.

Got back from Laibach. Laibach were pretty amazing, like really great. Just as good live if not better. The venue was pretty terrible, far too small for Laibach, and the crowd was sadly small. And oh the crowd, the crowd pretty much ruined the entire thing. A group of them constantly kept talking loudly which I felt was incredibly disrespectful, and then during Tanz Mit Laibach and Alle Gegen Alle they decided it was a great idea to start a mosh pit in an already small venue. One guy managed to pull me down to the floor even though I didn't want anything to do with it. Very much ruined Alle Gegen Alle which I found rather upsetting. I don't think a whole room of assholes could have ruined it though, I loved it. I'm glad to have finally seen them. It was worth it. The setlist was the same as the one posted earlier except there was a nice surprise in the form of Das Spiel Ist Aus right at the end.

The preview for the new Dependent compilation is seriously exciting me, though I admit the Seabound underwhelms me slightly, I'm retardedly excited for proof that new Seabound even exists. http://dependent.de/index.php?lan=de&area=releases&id=188 The tracklisting is interesting and most of my old standbys are not disappointing: quote:1. Radioaktivists - Pieces Of Me (click the link, there are long previews of every track even though the player itself sucks) edit: geez, if Edge of Dawn had gotten on here there'd have been four tracks with Frank Spinnath singing. teethgrinder fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Apr 13, 2012 |

They usually have about a dozen assholes show up who apparently are willing to pay €25 just for Tanz mit Laibach. The Volk tour was a bit rough, as they played the entirety of that rather quiet album, and some people just waited for the encore.

I already have the Volk tour CD, which is pretty great(Although they hosed up Slovania...Milan has his talents, but he's not actually a musical guy and tends to come in at the wrong time occasionally). This Tate Modern show, from what I'm hearing, will be something for every Laibach fan, and most every industrial fan.

Who wants to be Bill Leeb piloting a giant transforming mech in a video game? I sure as gently caress do. http://carbongames.com/2012/04/Front-Line-Assembly-Creating-Music-for-AirMech/ quote:This led us to decide between Carbon and FLA that AirMech (the soundtrack) will be a fully mastered studio album put out by their label tentatively dated for fall 2012. This arrangement allows FLA to devote all their attention to the album, and the music for the game will be better for it. We are also going to offer exclusive ingame content that you can get when you purchase the soundtrack/album. We’ll have pilots of the band members (including Jason Bazinet) as well as a very special AirMech Variant designed with input from the band.
