CAT rear end now!!! posted:After listening to the free four-track EP a couple of times now, I have to say there's a weird sense of... emptiness in all of these songs. They're all nicely done, and they've really nailed the NIN sound perfectly, but I can't help but feel the soul Trent pours into his works is missing. It's like these guys have decided to see if they can make songs like Reznor and succeeded, but haven't even tried to take it anywhere further than that. I really can't see myself listening to any more of this, it just plain makes me uncomfortable. How bad in comparison to say, Halo In Reverse?

Halo in Reverse is a DM reference, the dude's said it himself. I found HIR as a junior in high school when I first started getting into making music and thought anything NIN related was the beginning and end of industrial. Actual song writing aside, I was (and still am) surprised by how good the production sounded and hoped one day my music would be able to get to that level. All his music is from either '00 or '01 for back when MP3.com was still up, you can stream the whole album here http://www.haloinreverse.net/HTML/music/musicpopup.htm. Not only is there not a single original element to his music, he gets incredibly butthurt and defensive when anyone criticizes it always citing the NIN/Skinny Puppy comparison and then comparing that to himself to why everyone else should shut up. If you actually read any interviews with him it paints the saddest picture ever giving context to what all his songs are about. Half the songs are about a girl, the other half are about hating a girl, turns out his girlfriend he was madly in love with at some point during recording he walking on her giving a blowjob to another guy in their apartment or something. After you know the history it makes listening to the album kinda hilarious actually since it ends on You after he spent half the album bitching about her. I don't know how good/bad it is that You is his most "original sounding" song. I've talked to the dude on/off for years because he drives me nuts in that he obviously knows what he's doing and I think if he just gave some serious thought and effort he could make something unique if he wanted. In the time since he's put out his one CD, dug his heels in and said "I'M AWESOME" I graduated high school, made 3 demos, millions of downloads, dropped out of college, had a club hit, working on a Metropolis release, working with my heroes and my first pick for a producer. I've told him all this in hopes of sharing what I've learned and hoping he challenges himself one day to do something because even if I didn't know it was derivative at the time, it was something I thought was cool enough to keep going with making music. I like HIR better than sober NIN, even if it is just a blatant copy. I even bought a couple copies of his CD, one I gave to a friend as a gift with a custom "Compare to NIN and SAVE" sticker I make. My roomate even runs one of the big goth/industrial music blogs he did an interview with last year. Just challenge youself and do something (anything) you jerk. He did an awesome version of moonlight sonata the during MP3.com days I'm dying to hear again and every time we've corresponded and I've begged him to send it to me it's always "sure, I gotta remaster it and derpy deedly derp" and I never get it.  Edit - Actually I think "Go All The Way" is the best HIR song. Pope Guilty posted:Do you like Julien-K? I liked that song on Shadow the Hedgehog.

spider_ross.avi posted:Is it wrong for me to like the older mix better? Personally I think some of the rough analog texture that is really prevalent in the old mix gets lost in reverb and sampled acoustic drums in the new one. that's fine, just the new one is the slick sound I've been aiming for the whole time. Ill still add stuff like guitar pickup noises and the "help me" sample during the bridge.

Yep. Been helping here and there for the last couple years. I've met a lot of people in the scene that were really influential in shaping my sound growing up, some said they might be down to help finish this album, I feel very privileged  Speaking of, I'm working on the youtube art. It's coming along nicley, but they still scream "generic industrial band" so I got a few ideas to tinker with. All the empty space is reserved for a background photo of me cosplaying some anime catboy thing with a guitar. Spent all drat night on these, might as well show them before I throw them out:

Thanks for the feedback, I'm going to be treading some dangerous ground but I like it so: EDIT - ARGH VIOLENT WAS MISPELLED THIS WHOLE TIME Just now noticed, no it wasn't intentional. God drat that's embarrassing. Ooh and I got some more ideas. Edit 2, now it's getting there.

Pope Guilty posted:Yeah, agreed. I can't make a connection between this and what you've posted. Doctor Zero posted:Should be "Hyper-Violent Porno Cartoon." Unless you really do mean that it's hyper and violent like some kind of ADD psychopath. I started making this album in 2006 and started over 3 times because my sound sucked my songs sucked everything sucked. Years I've studied what NIN and Manson and Chemlab and everybody did to make something unique and successful, studied A&R after I went through the their thing in 05, marketing, every aspect of what other people would be in charge of if this was a label record. I'm creating a caricature of myself, which I had to bite the bullet that I'm an internet elemental. I'm every stupid emo posting facebook ramblings, bitching about exes, self mutilating, spergin wonderfuck that gravitated to sonic the hedgehog. I posted the instrumentals in the games forum along with the lyrics, and the feedback I got was pretty much expected. I want those that hate it to hate each and every aspect of it, because they don't get that I realize how stupid it is, but I just don't care. Since starting writing this thing, I've gone through 5 computers on this version of the album alone, had to put up with an rear end in a top hat engineer for years to learn, became friends with my favorite bands, moved out of AK for the first time ever, I got people waiting to push me into Hot Topic, and Birthday Massacre is down to let me tour with them god drat I have to make sure every little aspect of this is done right if I'm going to make sure it's successful. This will be it, not the start of a career or anything just one album. If I can successfully commercially sell myself then people will look at that as gold portfolio material. Then maybe I can get a normal 9 to 5 job maybe at a marketing company maybe the'll call me back from one of these interviews and maybe I can some semblance of stability As I bow out from the thread now, I'm pimping my youtube: http://www.youtube.com/mdpofficial Quirk fucked around with this message at 00:56 on Jun 30, 2011 |

The next thing I'm going to post is going to be it's own thread here, but I'm inviting everyone who hasn't yet to listen to these 3 blogs I recorded before I go this time. They're long but they give everything I've been doing context and insight into what an obsessive freak I am with music and bands. Starting from why this has taken me five years, to Nothing NIN and Manson, Birthday Massacre and me losing my god drat mind as I buckle down to finish something here over the next week. If you have friends also into industrial and interested in the politics of it as well, please pass these around. The final blog I actually thought to put music behind so you don't hear only my boring voice yammering on. blog3 http://www.youtube.com/user/mdpofficial?feature=mhum#p/u/2/MHr4eeoVCZY blog4 http://www.youtube.com/user/mdpofficial?feature=mhum#p/u/1/ZprWrxq18dI blog5 http://www.youtube.com/user/mdpofficial?feature=mhum#p/u/0/DVDM7w83zV4

handbandit posted:Scary thought, but what if these drat kids of today have such horrible taste, yet enough influence that in 20 years they're considered "pioneers" of the next evolution of industrial music? This is like worrying that bands like Black Veil Brides will set the stage for metal for the next generation. Blood On The Dancefloor sucks so much, no retard listening to them is going to make anything listen worthy beyond the inital novelty of trying to make "the next thing". The industrial that pioneered the halfway decent bands of today was born of a climate of social unrest and nihlistic attitude of the time. The poo poo "the kids" are listening to is disposable bubblegum that will be flushed once the next legit evolution of the genre comes about, there's enough paralells between now and back in the day that the music makers of today activley trying to do something different are so loving pissed that gay poo poo like Dead Inside Crystalis is what the current kind of thing is. Get enough pissed off artists together and they'll wipe this kiddy poo poo out when it hits the boiling point, give it time. Then again, I may just be deluded after 21 days straight of fighting seattle police for the right to be a god drat human being.

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.

Orgy fits, Candyass will always own. So after the police took and lost my laptop I finally got another one, started getting back into the swing of things making music after months of inactivity. I got exactly one rough test vocal of a chorus done before a SWAT team pulled the windows off the front of the house and made everyone vacate with guns drawn and all: http://tindeck.com/listen/tbwg I successfully hid from them last time at a warehouse, I just didn't count on being asleep this time Took another two weeks to track down another power cord for the laptop since everything in the house was forfeit. Only reason I still have this is because it went right under my coat when I heard the angry fist of god drilling the wall off, but I have a sound room at the library booked this week so I can at least try and get a song actually done. Bring it on world, even if it takes a million years you ain't stopping me from leaving my mark on it

I loving love The Kovenant. I think their best album is Animatronic, followed by SETI. Times Before the Light isn't bad either, but I have to be in a really agressive mood to listen to industrialized remixes of a black metal album. (Animatronic) New World Order - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mohtVnxVGDk (SETI) Planet of the Apes - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEK-bCxlpY4 (Times Before the Lights) The Chasm - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZNwZwEF6Aw Animatronic and SETI are two of my favorite industrial rock albums ever.

New Birthday Massacre just announced minutes ago.  quote:With every new album from The Birthday Massacre, we see a band that has created not only its own distinct niche in the musical landscape, but also seems to have created its own world. This time, we play Hide and Seek in that world. The new album from The Birthday Massacre opens with rain, and ends with the sounds of waves; in between we are given songs of lost girls, lost love, lost time. The delicate interplay between Chibi’s vocals and the ambiance created by Rainbow, M. Falcore, Rhim, Owen & Nate is on full display. Dark new wave hooks and haunting synths turn sinister as Rainbow and Falcore’s guitars lead Hide and Seek into ever darker, ever more beautiful corners of The Birthday Massacre’s world.

All this edgy bullshit regardless if it's sinscere, in charecter or what the gently caress ever, it's just all old-hat recycled boring as motherfuck. None of this has any real spirit behind it, there's no personality, these people took cliff notes just to get chicks and piss off dad. I concede I'm not really an "industrial" fan because I'm a rock guy and also liked the actual new-ground breaking industrial stuff from when people listened to records.Doctor Claw posted:Hey bud, I remember you had some really good industrial music you made online.
