Danger - Octopus! posted:Industrial music thread: we still can't agree on what industrial music is. Or isn't. That's part of what makes it interesting and varied. If there's a new thread, your quote from this one's OP needs to be there: Danger - Octopus! posted:Industrial music is dead. This is a thread about EBM. Wait, no, that just leads to arguments about Front 242 and how there's been no real EBM since about 1994. Terror EBM? No, that sounds silly. Synthpop? No, that makes me think of the Pet Shop Boys. Electropop? Same thing but with tighter trousers and more girls. Futurepop? That just sounds silly. Aggrotech? I don't even know what the gently caress. Post-industrial? As if half the fans of this stuff these days have even HEARD of real old-school industrial bands. Rhythmic noise? We can't call it that, because all the atonal noise fans who like Merzbow and whatever get grumpy. Okay, it's electro-industrial and to hell with any more specific genre names than that.

EBM is Hi-NRG disco in a minor key, and instead of soul divas you have shouty Germans. Suchen Auf der Suche nach Liebe Die ganze Zeit, ich kann! Suchen Auf der Suche nach Liebe Ich habe einen Mann zu finden!

Doubting Thomas is another great Skinny Puppy side project that's not as well known. A lot of the songs really sound like re-worked Puppy songs that never made it in to an album. Leeb & his cohorts were notorious for that with the insane number of FLA side projects (I think even their side projects had side projects!). Noise Unit's Decoder supposedly started out as the first version of what became Millenium - they scrapped all the songs other than This Faith and started over (which explains why that song sticks out so much). PS Implode is my second favorite FLA album behind Hard Wired.

I really need to see Dead When I Found Her. I put them in the Amphi Festival visitor feedback thing where they ask which bands people want to see at the festival. Maybe I get lucky next year? Also the Slack channel is good and cool and now I have yet another place where I can endlessly spam garbage about Project Pitchfork

My latest synthpop EP came out last week. There are a few remixes by Nature of Wires, Avarice in Audio, and SØLVE. The full album is up on youtube/spotify/probably a few Russian torrents by now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLjnHG2quGY Hope you guys enjoy! If you're interested in a physical copy AnalogueTrash is selling cassettes of the release. Positive and negative feedback are totally welcome.

God Of Paradise posted:So I have the issue where I'm obsessed with bands like Swans, Big Black, A Place to Bury Strangers, Einstruzende Neubauten, Pop. 1280., Cabaret Voltaire, Have A Nice Life and The Soft Moon. I feel you, when I'm searching for new music I don't even know what genres to begin to search for. You mentioned wanting more stuff like that Forces EP, I've been looking too but haven't found anything quite like it yet, that thing was killer and I posted it in this thread and no one replied . However you and I have pretty similar taste in music so I'm gonna list some mostly hard-to-categorize artists I've seen or been listening to lately that you might dig that also wouldn't be too out of place in this thread: Vanligt Folk - Some Swedes making some really cool EBM-y music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvrAp4hOBLM Algiers - Atlanta-based Marxist experimental rock dudes, and the vocalist has some killer pipes! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpLMc6nWtJw Rakta - Postpunk from Sao Paulo, they reminded me of The Soft Moon a bit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JYiENE-i-E Mueran Humanos - Some really weird noisy electronic rock from Argentina (now Berlin) who played in San Francisco last week and I was too tired to see them and I feel like an idiot because they're great, I just hope they come back around. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXLES5rHxj8 Kirin J Callinan - From Melbourne, totally hard to categorize but very talented and doesn't take himself seriously at all (see his performance at the Sydney Opera House Ted Talk <3 ), and this track features Alex Akers from Forces. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ziod9Gc3aww Las Suicas - Two Latinas from Oakland who make experimental reggaeton and list Diamanda Galas, Throbbing Gristle and Neubauten as an influence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDlTgY5n5_c Powell - British dude, really noisy techno and a fantastic DJ to boot. He e-mailed Steve Albini to ask if he could sample Big Black and got an amazing angry letter back which he ended up posting on a huge billboard as an ad, and apparently he also put it in the music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oem6gEEajZU I'll stop here but I'm so loving happy with how much awesome weird music has been coming out in the last five years and just keeps coming.

I have a problem I'm trying to solve: loving Wikipedia(tm). Now I've been involved in the world's favourite encyclopedia since 2004 and know how the rules work, and even the most infuriating rules all there for a reason. In particular the "notability" rules are there because spammers mean we can't have nice things. So this presents a certain problem for our favourite musical genre, because the sourcing is thin as gently caress and is mostly blogs (which don't count). One thing which does count is a national chart, including minor national charts. Say ... the Deutsche Alternative Charts. If your record gets a DAC entry, it prima facie passes notability. What I can't find is any handy source on past DACs. Like, at all. Is there such a thing? Is there even a subscription source without a swingeing price? (The other sort of sourcing is print magazines in German, but this requires someone on the ground to source them.) [The more general problem is that music journalism has been destroyed by the Internet when it took out the record industry. Speaking as a former music journalist, I can only see this as a good thing for humanity. But it does mean that an indie band from the 1980s will often have excellent sources, but one from the 2010s just won't.]

Looking at the notability guidelines, isn't simply being on the roster of a label enough, if that label has been going a while and has a few bands? Some bands seem to just have their label website bio/album pages as sources?
