carbonex posted:The most frustrating part is that he's been wasting time with Combichrist (and Panzer AG...) and we haven't had an Icon of Coil album in forever. Komor's doing pretty well with Komor Kommando, isn't he? I signed up for the Alfa Matrix email list, because I loving love Alfa Matrix, and it seems like every email I get from them has a new KK disc.

Jumping on the Floodland is incredible train. It was the first album I ever listened to and enjoyed that wasn't some kind of punk rock (or Graceland, shut up), and kind of led to everything else.

Quirk posted:Thinking clearly now I'm off the meds I was on the last 4 weeks designed to keep me pacified not finding work since I've set foot in this loving rear end in a top hat city, trying my hardest to stay non-violent at this joke of an occupation with police loving us for sleeping and now for painting protest signs (no joke) I keep trying to do impromptu and planned shows but every time it devolves into me screaming NON's "Total War" while beating the poo poo out of a bucket because the media team thinks my music is too violence inciting to help me perform anything. Police took and lost my laptop after taking tents during week 1 so my music making is out the window until god knows when and I've spent alot of time waiting for the best times to piss on the occupation's Bank of America doors which is losing it's charm so I'm getting ready to pig out tonight and bazooka barf all over them. I don't know that I have ever heard anything about Seattle cops that didn't paint them as brutal monsters.

I really hope he just makes new music. The old songs are fine as they are. (I am secretly hoping he "beefs up" the old stuff and it turns out to rule.)

DaveSpillings posted:Seeing Angelspit live is weird. I mostly stick to the hardcore/metal/mosh pit scene but they've been my favorite band for the last few years. Every time I see them they're playing to a sell-out crowd in front of a dance floor, usually headlining, so I always think "hell yeah, fat synths? Massive techno beats? Superbitch vocals? This is gonna be a sweet dance party!" Then it's me dancing in front singing the words with a couple hundred goth kids behind me silently bobbing their heads. The band always has a ton of energy and rocks out, but the crowd is just a bunch of bummer goth kids. And me. And the teenybopper scene kids there to see Blood On the Dancefloor!

boo_radley posted:There was a ton of old industrial videos of dudes just walking around burned out or abandoned factories, staring up into the sun or just looking into the camera. So you know, tradition. It's not electro-industrial, but there's a Cruxshadows video which is about 2/3 the singer and violinist walking along some railroad tracks for no readily apparent reason. Absolutely nothing to do with the song, just we had this footage so whatever.

Been listening to XTORT in the car lately. I usually prefer KMFDM's later, less guitar-driven stuff, but goddamn if that isn't a great album.

My point was really more that if you're getting 150 of something produced, you're getting the highest unit prices you're going to pay for mass production.

cyberia posted:Alfa Matrix are having a sale, looks like they're getting rid of old stock. 3 CDs for 30 euros or 2 special editions for 40 euros, shipping included. I'm incredibly tempted by some of their comps but I have no idea how any that translates into dollars or how to order from them as somebody who only has dollars.

Furret Basket posted:Goddamn, I normally really like Soman but.. What the hell happened there. I agree with every word of this. I DID hear a pretty entertaining electronic cover of "Spiritual Cramp" by Christian Death, but in general, covering old new wave/goth/synthpop stuff should probably be left to Nouvelle Vague.

Twiin posted:There was a thing a few years back at the club night I co-promoted/DJed where these two big yuppie dudes came in wearing white polos and jeans. Like, so obviously out of their element, and they probably meant to go to the strip club next door anyway. But they were there and bobbing their heads to the music and seemed to be having a fun time. Wait, you mean you weren't hatched fully-formed from a black latex egg laid by Genesis P. Orridge? Poseur!

Twiin posted:My old boss told me a story of how he went to a goth bar once and was super intimidated by all these people with lipstick and makeup and corsets, until he went to get a drink and heard the hardcore looking vampires next to him arguing about which version of Adobe Photoshop was better. In my whole life, I think I have known maybe one person who was into gothic or industrial music and who wasn't completely into either computers, roleplaying games, or both.

Danger - Octopus! posted:Apparently, at the big European festivals, you can tell where a lot of people are from just by how they dress, since different kinds of goth/alternative clothes are popular in different countries. One of my friends was uncannily good at this. He'd point out a group of people and say where he thought they came from, then we'd stand near them until we could hear them talking and confirm he was right. This would make a fantastic website.

Odder still was that after "Love on the Beat", the robot voice told us that if we clap enough they'll do an encore. Laibach is so weird. I'm not a Laibach expert, but... Das Kapital?
