Woah I didn't know I:Scintilla released a new album. Gonna order that poo poo now. It's nice seeing them get a legitimate fanbase, I thought I was the only person who knew them when they only released The Approach. One really good (albeit shortlived) band is Firewerk. They released two albums in the early 2000's and never got big at all, but I thought their sound was really good. Reminds me of 90's era KMFDM. Their stuff is really hard to find these days, I think they still sell albums to people who contact them via their MySpace, but I'm not sure. Good stuff though. I managed to snag their albums for free from some iTunes store promotion before they disbanded.

Yeah Laibach is probably my favorite band ever. Not just because of their music but their image, philosophy, and bizarre message are hilarious at worst and brilliant at best. When I saw them live in Portland a couple years ago they were really, really good. Played Volk in its entirety, then switched gears to some WAT tracks and Alle Gegen Alle. They'll always have a place in my heart just for making up their own loving country. I ended up buying an NSK passport for my brother for his birthday the year after and told him he has to get at least one visa stamped in it before he dies.

So apparently 16volt and Dead When I Found Her are playing at the Fez here in Portland on April 20th. Time to finally check those guys out and see if they put on a good show.

Furret Basket posted:Do Unheilig count as fitting into the same place as Rammstein? I really like them. Can't say I like Rammstein much at all anymore, I used to think they were the bees knees at school but I can only assume I grew out of them or something. Same story with most guitar based music these days. I'll be honest, guitars usually bore me unless they're being used purely as backing or the band are particularly interesting. (I still listen to System Of A Down for instance.) Unheilig has, since 2. Gebot, gone from being a pretty decent goth industrial act into albums composed entirely of generic goth power ballads.

Just got back from 16Volt's album release party and live show here in Portland. I've never heard 16Volt in my life and they were pretty good, great show. Also loved Dead When I Found Her. My buddy and I bought them drinks, they were some pretty cool dudes. Apparently there's a huge industrial scene in Portland I've never gotten in touch with, and this concert really helped me make those connections.

Jose Mengelez posted:The dream of the 90's is alive in portland. My friend I was with hadn't been to an industrial concert since he was living in Detroit in the 90's, and he had a blast. He said the concert gave him 90's flashbacks to when he was a goth. I managed to get a signed album from Dead When I Found Her, and those guys were pretty awesome. I saw some agent from metropolis records hand them her business card, so hopefully that'll get their foot in the door so they can actually become somewhat mainstream in the industrial scene. Those guys deserve it.

Zyklon B Zombie posted:Bleh, I hope this isn't dark stuff. The first two ohGr albums were awesome because they were really poppy music with Ogre singing over it. I never bothered picking up Devils in My Details because it sounded like he was trying to make it sound like Skinny Puppy, and if I wanted to listen to crappy Skinny Puppy I'd just listen to their newer albums. The second half of the album is basically Skinny Puppy and The Postal Service Make an Album

TOOT BOOT posted:I wish they had gone more in the direction of Frozen Sky than anything they ended up doing. Skinny Puppy and OhGr are indistinct to the point where you can slap the OhGr name on a Puppy album now and I think that's a loss. Yes. Frozen Sky is one of my favorite songs made by Key and Ogre. Also what happened with Dave the Rave? I thought he just moved on to other projects and didn't have time for Skinny Puppy anymore. Was there actually some kind of tension between him and the band? Because if so that's a shame. He's really good.

Yeah when I managed to talk a bit with Dead When I Found Her when they played they were like "Yeah I really liked Necro Facility but they showed me some stuff from their upcoming album, and it's total Fallout Boy eyeliner goth bullshit and it's disappointing because they're better than that." What a shame.

Yeah the past few years I grew pretty bored with most modern industrial music. Like, it sounds like all the kids that listened to it in the 90's grew up and are writing music, and are just trying to make it sound like a specific handful of bands, or just write a club hit. It's like the music version of fan fiction, almost.

And while I don't like it as much, I appreciate that he went in a complete gently caress off direction for the second album, which suitably resulted in half his fanbase turning to hysterics online because of how "awful" it was. Helalyn Flowers is just straight-up embarrassing.

Godmachine posted:This is why I like Angelspit; they haven't stuck to the typical genre-cliches. To me, they have a sound that is comparatively unique when contrasted with all the garbage that is vocoders over a 4/4. I know they are a love or hate band, but at least they're doing something different. Yeah their sound doesn't really do it for me but I can appreciate what they do, and they put on a great live show.

I kinda like everything up to and including FLAvour of the Weak, and then thought it was all poopcrap after that. Although I keep buying each new album and will usually find at least one jam that I dig. I just pretend every album is from a different band. That said I loved Epitaph too.

Hollow definitely sounds the most 'classic' in the minimalist analog sense. Pissage is my favorite on the album though. His voice in that song is great.

handbandit posted:Check out https://www.pdxindgoth.com if you haven't yet (you probably have). They keep an up to date schedule of events but are otherwise dead. Either I'm out of touch, or it's a tiny scene compared to the early 00's. Then again all the really oldschool people say that was tiny compared to the late '90s. hey thanks man. I may or may not have met Derek that night actually, I remember his name at least coming up. I was pretty drunk by the time I started just talking to people after the first band finished so I can't remember most of it. Apparently I met Unter Null and didn't know it? I dunno.

hatelull posted:Agreed. Arguably, the remix album the Pups themselves put out wasn't much better. However, perhaps the Rhys Fulber and Gunter remixes were better appreciated here than in the extremely snotty puppy forum. I sort of enjoyed the Autchere remix, simply for being what it is. The Autechre remix wasn't bad yeah, and actually that Gunter remix was pretty good. It was actually one of the first Skinny Puppy songs I'd heard. Yes I'm probably much younger than most the posters in this thread.

boo_radley posted:That's got Vanished on it, right? I think that's when the melding of all of the FLA side projects really coalesced into something polished and nuanced (mature, maybe?). I'll have to dig the disc back up. That was the first album Rhys Fulber returned on, and iirc the guitarist for Fear Factory did the guitars in Civilization. The album itself was a Big Deal due to Fulber's return

That's funny since a lot of people tried to criticize Civilization as 'Delerium Line Assembly.' I really liked that album though. It has a couple weak points but when it hits it hits hard.

Leeb strikes me as someone more comfortable with soundscapes than pure aggression and it comes through in most of his stuff. Well yeah I think Civilization is a great track, which is a good example of the Leeb soundscapes combined with the Fulber aggressiveness he picked up during his absence.
