So the new Marilyn Manson track is pretty good.

Is there a listed line up for his bands current iteration? Seeing Manson release new stuff made me look up Tim Skold to see what he's been doing since announcing The Undoing then canceling it.

Nobody bothers keeping track because it changes every six months it seems like. Manson has had like 20 different people in the band by this point.

There are worse bands when it comes to this though so it's a fair question.

I have a hard time being nostalgic for Stabbing Westward given the persistent rumors I've heard about the lead singer since then.

I saw The Dreaming not too long ago, Chris sat out in the small crowd and watched the opening act, had a drink with me and put on a killer show. What rumor is this?

B.O.A is the stand out track on here for me, they also slowed down/re-recorded Atrophy i feel like.

Front 242 and KMFDM/OhGr are playing back to back nights. Boston is getting a lot of good shows this summer.

KMFDM DOIN that thing they do every now and then.

My $0.02:

- SK can't sing for poo poo, no matter how much autotune he uses.
- Guitars not crunchy enough; beats not harsh enough. PSB's (really good) last couple of albums sound more 'dustrial than KMFDM in TYOOL 2017.
- Really happy to see Brute!'s artwork getting a 21st century treatment. Always wondered why he didn't go full [as]!
- Holy poo poo, I'm amazed at how NOT excited at all I am about KMFDM.

edit: after listening to it a couple of times with actual headphones instead of $2 ones, it's not so bad; it's just lackluster. I guess I'll just go back to the neofolk thread and stab myself in the face with a Pepe pin.

I am more surprised to not hear Lucia anywhere on this track, I can't really tell if she is even layered in the chorus?

edit: 2nd listen the guitars sound really loving bad, they need to upgrade to some AxeFX rigs or something.

Sascha's usually really good at mixing his own tracks, so I found it pretty odd. Is it just me or do the vocals sound louder than the rest of the track? Makes the beat and guitars sound p weak.

when he says HELL YEAH during the chorus it's definitely bordering on clipping.

edit: just saw this this morning

Sure. That's in the past. This is what they do now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_7URJHwduE

You can clearly see how everything they do affects some part of the music or even the visuals. If you listen to different recordings of the same song, it is obvious where a melody is played or where a parametre is changed live. Every song is obviously sequenced beforehand, but they can control essentially every part of it live.

Edit: Is... is this a new concept to some people here? This is how a whole lot of electronic music is performed live.

I really hate to burst your bubble but they've even licensed out the "live show", I went on a cruise this past winter and saw a nightly show called Spectre's Cabaret there was a 10 minute Kraftwerk section which was literally what I saw the year before at Kraftwerk 3D, same animations and everything exactly.

I'm not knocking it as a show because it was loving amazing and I would go again, but you could throw four mannequins up there They'll actually loving do this by the way for We Are The Robots again proving that the show is entirely scripted and still get the same result.

http://cdm.link/2015/02/kraftwerk-live-rig-exposed-really-checking-email/

some more proof they don't do nearly as much as you think.

Sorry man, but I looked up a Spectre's Cabaret video and found a Kraftwerk bit and it is quite literally not the same visuals as Kraftwerk uses. I know this because I've seen them four times and watched the live DVD and the new Catalogue poo poo several times. That just is not the same at all. The music might as well be, could be playback.

The Robots is a special case because that song is quite obviously something else than every single other song in the show.

Also, have you read that article or watched the embedded video? It shows the exact thing I was talking about.


Of course I read the article, and I'm not arguing that they're not doing "Something" at some shows but you said it yourself the entire show is sequenced and they didn't do poo poo at the Wang.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAS8L3v2tzU&t=1306s

and as far as the Cabaret licensing goes I asked the lighting designer while I was on the ship (I work in live production so I was curious about the tech specs, there are 30 projectors being used in that video + 6 articulating LED video walls) that and he told me the Kraftwerk section was licensed directly from them and they used the same company who created the 3D visuals for the 2015 tour.

Remember the early 90's when Ministry were at the top of their game and that legendary tour for The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste was a who's who of B-Sides (I miss that magazine) artists and features? Remember how In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up had a phenomenal live version of "So What?" and a cathartic "Stigmata" but yet it was only six tracks and felt like a cheat? Especially when the VHS included the opener "Breathe" plus that really neat "Pledge of Allegiance/Land of Rape and Honey" closer?

Well YOU are mostly in luck because those guys released a live album from a 1990 show, that's a hefty fourteen tracks including the Skinny Puppy cover, PIL cover, and a lot of Biafra. Sadly, I don't think the Pledge made it to this recording but still it sounds pretty nice. As I understand it, they took out a lot of the overdubs that were added to the live EP and so the vocals are more prominent?

I was listening to ICYDFLSU the other day and was wishing there was more from that era. Thanks for this

That is a pretty cool baby.

Anyone know what the setlist for Prey & Obey tour is? For Ghostfeeder, Julien-K and PIG. I'm guessing they play in that order.

isn't the PIG drummer doing double duty for Julien-K, I wouldn't be surprised if they were swapped if that's the case.

Julien-K was fun, they made some digs at Orgy and then covered Orgy's cover of Blue Monday.
