Enjoy! I was hoping to make Cold Waves an annual tradition while I work for a Chicago-based company and they pay for my airfare and board ... but I'm a dirty Canadian and my vax combo isn't recognised by the states. Seeing PWEI play there is one of my all-time greatest memories.

david_a posted:The new Noise Unit came out yesterday. Only listened to it once but it feels like a stealth FLA release. None of the songs are as good as Unknown from Mechanical Soul but it sure seemed to have more points of interest. I really like the new Noise Unit album. It seems like they're just paring off a whole bunch of ideas from FLA's more recent albums and merging it with sort of an older-school FLA sound. In other FLA news, apparently they got kicked off the Ministry tour without being notified. They found out via social media and don't seem to be too happy about it! The tour itself has been pushed back 6 months due to COVID-19 concerns, and my location is one of those that got refunded rather than rescheduled, which I guess I'm fine with!

The new openers are the Melvins and Corrosion of Conformity. I fail to see how this is industrial anymore

Spotify served me up this Hocico track and I love the drum n' bass crossover. Is there more stuff that does this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kBmSLo_FO0

Ravenous is back! I've always though Funker Vogt was rarely more than ok but loved the side projects. Now I'm just waiting for a new Fusspils 11 album (the best Funker Vogt related thing). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO6mtvhs-zQ Kinda like it.

I was redirected to this thread for recommendations similar to KontravoidPhlegmish posted:I've spent most of my life listening to rock music (especially on the punk spectrum), never really giving EDM the time of day (to be fair, much of it over here in Europe was terrible up until at least the 2000's) except maybe early Pendulum and a few random drum 'n' bass songs because they have some of that same energy. Last year, however, I randomly discovered Kontravoid on YouTube and was immediately hooked: I've never particularly been into industrial music (or EDM in general), and I don't think Kontravoid even fully fits into that genre, but there's something about this band that really connects with me, especially their 2012 album. e: i think it's the distorted synth...bass...synth bass (alright I don't know keyboard terminology)...that hits me, while many other superficially similar acts don't really do anything for me Phlegmish fucked around with this message at 11:38 on Oct 22, 2021 |

Phlegmish posted:I was redirected to this thread for recommendations similar to Kontravoid Sound a bit like Cyborgs on Crack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTtmRW_K0nU And at the risk of being too obvious it also reminded me a bit of Front 242. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfLbEtFO_Mc What are the similar acts you don't like?

Kontravoid is usually associated with Darkwave (but then again, so are most contemporary acts that go in this thread); some of the music, especially the basslines and drums are very old-school EBM though. Classic acts in that genre would be Nitzer Ebb and Front 242. Contemporary examples would be Youth Code and Boy Harsher. thotsky fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Oct 22, 2021 |

Rhys Fulber has a new album out 28 Nov, "Brutal Nature", recorded during lockdown, and I got a promo. Mostly instrumental. Ambience with a beat. It's not bad actually, in the subgenre "old industrial musician from way back when makes a new album." I don't have a linkable public promo from it, but I expect it'll be on his Bandcamp in a month. edit: ah, someone else linked the promo stream. divabot fucked around with this message at 13:54 on Oct 26, 2021 |

I'm quite impressed by both Rhys Fulber and Bill Leeb. It would have been pretty easy for them to go around performing Mindphaser to ever-shrinking crowds. But they're out there working with younger artists and doing new stuff instead.

Yes, instead there's a bandcamp with an indefinitely extending series of remixes of "Silence".

I got a ticket to the Boy Harsher show in MA tomorrow but won't be able to go, there's no thread where they exactly fit so I am copy pasting this to anywhere anyone might be interested. It's digital, I can just forward the email its in to whoever wants it and that should work I think.

Health have done a collaboration with deliberately annoying surrealist popster Poppy, and it's pretty good for lugubrious bleepy-industrial grind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlkdkQR2gUs

Yeah I heard Poppy's new album and it's straight up 1990s grunge. Pretty good at it! But not at all what I was expecting.

Poppy's track 'Meat' is industrial as gently caress Edit: as well as being a great song and sounding awesome in a club, the lyrics are some straight up horrifying dark stuff Danger - Octopus! fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Oct 31, 2021 |

it's kind of annoying that the infectious bubblegum dance pop component of her shtick seems to have been a contribution from her dipshit abusive collaborator who she jettisoned finally. I want to like the new stuff but it's just a bit too ... same-y I guess? I Disagree had some great highlights though, but even that felt weaker and less transgressive than Am I Girl? overall, in spite of it having a lot more teeth.
