Are any other industrial bands getting non-scene press at the moment, or is it just them?

I was going to post something dismissive of YC based on the previous stuff of theirs I've given a listen to but I am glad I clicked through to hear this new one before saying anything. Holy poo poo this is really really loving good.

Someone in Finland seems to like German industrial metal.

quote:

BeatCon Music & Games Festival is an annual festival, based in Jyväskylä, Finland, which combines the best in game developing and music. It is a winter event, happening always in the end of January/beginning of February, and offering opportunities for game developers, investors, artists and music and game fans. It's a unique and avant-garde event, and it intends to attract thousands of people daily to the heart of Finland. The festival happens at Paviljonki, in the central area of Jyväskylä, the perfect location for concerts and conventions.

I'm one of the few girls with bright green hair that isn't a wig. Also I'm wearing shoes with kitty faces on them.

I want to go to Infest. Next weekend my town is hosting the Texas Industrial Fest:

http://www.texasindustrialfest.com/

I'm deciding whether or not to check some of it out. I've avoided it in previous years since it's been repeatedly canceled (organizers trying to do too much + foreign acts) leaving them scrambling for alternative venues. A lot of people were wondering whether it was a scam.

Now it looks like they've scaled it back a bit.

Mostly Texas and down-south acts, with one group (Decoded Feedback) from Canada. Some of these bands ... are not the best. I love the bios: "[Band] is more than just an Electronic Hard-Rock band in Austin, TX." (No, it is just that.)

But some of the synth groups could be fun. And I have a cheesy soft spot for Rio Grande Valley aggrotech.

Gothsicles interview with some news on side projects:

quote:

Could you tell us what you are up to with your side projects this year.

Christ on a cracker, side-projects for daaaaaays. We’re about 8 tracks in on HARDCORE PONG, which is Angelspit & The Gothsicles. That’s gonna be awesome.

KHIONIK is an unabashedly housey thing I’m working on with Syrinx that should be cool. He’s probably angry with me ‘cause I’m way behind on that one, but also probably not that angry at all because he’s a really nice guy.

THE CAUSTICLES (Caustic & The Gothsicles) has an album and a remix EP out and just released a cover of Suicide Commando’s “Raise Your God”. Check all that poo poo out at thecausticles.bandcamp.com ‘cause it’s free.

DINOSAUR TANK started out as an EBM thing and has since become almost exclusively a chip tune project. New tracks come out when I’m having a slow day at work.

I’m also doing the soundtrack for a new fancy video game I can’t talk about yet. They initially wanted a bunch of loops and blorps and poo poo, but now they want 5 full tracks.

I laughed really, really, hard at the band called HELLTRASH, but now I'm listening to them and they seem like they kind of own.

I haven't really listened to any of them but you can't go wrong with names like SUICIDE PANDA and MORTICIA WEEPS.



Edit:

This festival has a variety of Electronic genres like EBM, Synthpop, Future-pop, Darkwave, Drum N Bass, Dub-Step, Noise, Experimental, Aggrotech, Terror-EBM, Hellektro, Terrorcore, Speedcore, Gabber and of course Goth and Industrial.

Ashbury heights were loving poo poo imo. The girl he's with these days is gorgeous (grade A boobs for real) but other than that they were bad. Mixing was terrible I could barely hear the music over his really bad sad Ashbury heights warbling.

Luckily vnv owned as usual, regardless of what you think of the music ronan harris is the most fun charismatic stage man in the genre.

Haven't Ashbury Heights played live something like a half-dozen times ever? I remember back when the band cratered originally people were mocking Anders Hagstrom for complaining about his lack of success despite barely ever actually performing.

Every band ever.
However, a question of etiquette: How public should one make their bitch-fest?
