Makes me think if you really want to have an animated music video, have it done in 2D. Would be less likely to look hilariously dated the second it's released, I'd say. Or have a very strong art direction that doesn't depend on looking as realistic as possible in your 3D vid?

I also found it interesting that while beating up dogs was not acceptable he didn't have the same qualms about fighting the homeless, black guys or drag queens.

I really hate Faderhead too, but I saw them at WGT this year and honestly enjoyed myself quite a lot. then again the fact that I was completely wasted off my rear end at that point might've played a role hmm

Faderhead is dumb but his blog is actually pretty interesting and surprisingly, even brutally honest about the way they do things. For example, I really appreciate the fact that even if every laptop they have fails, they can still deliver a show. Very considerate and nice for the fans who'll most likely rather take a show with the music coming from an mp3 on a phone than nothing at all. I can dig that.

We were told by a friend of mine who was also djing so we all assumed he had some inside info but he actually just talking out of his arse. It wasn't just my group though I was met with a line of angry looking people when I went in to see who it was as well. DeusExMachinima posted:outrage for the outrage throne If you're gonna act out a power fantasy in your video and you don't consider what your choice of targets says about you you're an idiot, if you do and think beating up drag queens, hobos and black guys makes you look cool you're a wanker. There's no outrage, just tedium, which sums up faderhead really. Are jocks even a thing outside America?

To be honest even though I dislike the band if it had just been other bands he'd fought I'd have liked the video but it wasn't so I thought it was dumb instead. I empathise with the need to break up the prevalence of po-faced purveyors of futurepop though. Omi-Polari posted:Yeah. The Faderheads and Combichrists aren't my thing, but it's really not worth caring about. My explanation for why I don't like a particular video is serious business that everyone should care about.

Some thoughts after my first listen-through: As an album it's definitely a move away from the increasingly anthemic direction PP has been heading in since Dream, Tiresias!. It's darker and nastier, unsettling, even, it's angry and aggressive it's glitchy, and as a whole it just seems to have a kind of... "viscosity" to it. Like it very much sounds like the title Blood itself: it's thick and bubbly and threatening. It never really slows down, either. (Also Peter's Daimonion-voice is back again  ) It's very much a Project Pitchfork album, but it also definitely shows a new project Pitchfork again, which is something the last couple of albums didn't really do. The change was more incremental there, but here it's brought to the forefront again.It's good. It's a loving good rear end loving album and I am loving mad this guy manages to turn out insane albums in the space of like half a year. Seriously he said in an interview he started work on the album in January. What he hell, man. Like how do you even make tracks like Blood-Lust or Blood-Moon. Edit: or Blood-Thirst.

They still have great energy onstage and some of the songs sound amazing live, imho. Edit: should hopefully be going to a pretty awesome industrial event tomorrow. Douglas McCarthy being interviewed live by the editor of The Quietus, preview of some kickstarted film involving Genesis P-Orridge exploring voodoo and then a live set from Douglas' new project DJMREX as well as a DJ playing really old school industrial and related music. http://youtu.be/NuD7d5Sn0f4 Danger - Octopus! fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Sep 19, 2014 |

Like it very much sounds like the title Blood itself: it's thick and bubbly and threatening. It never really slows down, either. (Also Peter's Daimonion-voice is back again After listening to this all, I thoroughly enjoyed it, and it grabbed me far easier than their output for ages. It's very, very good. And honestly makes me so loving happy. I've been so disappointed with the genre lately, i.e. Seabound's last album. But, I wish there was an anthemic single I could point people to to say, this is Project Pitchfork, and this is why you should (still) listen to them. It's a great album, best in ages, but there's no Timekiller, Karma Monster, I Live Your Dream, Steelrose, Alpha Omega, I'll Find My Way Home, Human/Alien Crossing, Instead of an Angle, Dance In The Air, etc. I really liked the songs you mentioned, but would also draw attention to Blood-Pressure (track 7). And hell, track 1, Blood-Line, was such a great first impression. -------------------- Uh totally unrelated, but the lyrics to New Order's Love Vigilantes finally clicked with me tonight. gently caress, what a punch in the gut. I know they have a dark sardonic sense of humour, but their lyrics are usually poo poo. Love Vigilantes is unexpected and fantastic.

teethgrinder posted:I don't get what you mean by anthemic. I'd say their older stuff is anthemic; I can't think of anything I'd describe that way since Dream, Tiresias! I'm talking about how after Daimonion Pitchfork went into a more introspective mode for a long while and started doing more and more catchy, "big" tracks after that again. For me, NUN-Trilogie, Kaskade, Wonderland/One Million Faces and Dream, Tiresias! weren't all that catchy (although excellent, obviously, esp. NUN-Trilogie is one of my favorite things ever), but Continuum Ride - BLACK had increasing amounts of huge, anthemic tracks. Have you already forgotten about tracks like Way of the World, Continuum, Beholder, Lament, The Queen of Time and Space, Pitch-Black or especially stuff like Rain and Acid Ocean? As for wishing for one song to point people at - the thing is, you could pretty much do it with any song here, because it's all so loving good. I'd personally go with Blood-Money, Blood-Moon or Blood-Lust. Also Karma Monster is one of the very few terrible Project Pitchfork songs for me, sorry man quote:I really liked the songs you mentioned, but would also draw attention to Blood-Pressure (track 7). And hell, track 1, Blood-Line, was such a great first impression. It's all loving good. The only songs I don't really care about (yet?) are Blood-Shed and Blood-Night. a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 16:28 on Sep 20, 2014 |

Leipzig was full of goths. We took the train and the amount of people dressed up out numbered the regular Joes.

I unfollowed KMFDM on all social media sites a while back. Decided to see what they're up to, and  now I remembered why I unfollowed them.In the last six months they have posted a total of 66 updates on Facebook. That's 11 updates per month on average, or one every three days or so. Out of the 66 updates a grand total of eight haven't mentioned preordering or buying some dumb crap, or said dumb crap being shipped. What an exciting band to follow!
