any fans of early industrial?

Oh yes, I also really like Manson from Antichrist Superstar to present. A bit too glam goth to be taken seriously but music does rock pretty hard and has some industrial elements.

Sacriligious?
They will kick me off the board if I ever start with my large black metal collection: Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Bogir, Tristania etc. he he.

For Wumpscut try to get middle period stuff:
-embryo dead
-bunker gate seven

If you want similar stuff to Xymox get all:
-Switchblade Symphony (3 albums)

Getting back to the early industrial stuff, I would love to find copy of:
SPK - Machine Age Vodoo
has a song called "metal dance" and is more accessable than early noisey material like Auto Dafe album.

Network label had a lot of early industrial acts signed, one I remeber was Severed Heads, still have greatest hits collection......song "twenty deadly diseases" is cool

Megasam I have the 12 inch single Machine Age Vodoo by SPK.

As to playing/talking about GOTH being sacrilegious. Since 1981 FAITH by the Cure I've been playing, listening, and seeing Goth bands (away from the stagnet(sp.) dinosaur rock bands from that time, and I never looked back.)

How about Teargarden? its s mix of the members of The Legendary Pink Dots and Skinny Puppy.
Very very good stuff

The legendary Pink Dots are one of my favorite bands. Seen em in concert twice. I have Crushed velevet Apocalypse, The Curse, Golden Age, 9 Lives to Wonder, The Tower, about 3-4 others i cant think of right now.

I love Project Pitchfork, its hard to find in stores though.

Big Big fan of Einsturzende Neubauten. Good stuff. I have about 5-6 of thier CD's.

Lets not forget Psychic TV, Penal Colony, My Life with the Thrill Kill Cult, Twilight Circus.

Wumpscut is pretty good, that's some hard stuff to find as well. Too bad my Ebryodead CD was stolen years back.

Current 93 and Christian Death are always fun. :) That wacky Roz WIlliams.

I REALLY want to find a copy of Project Pitchforks Early Years. havent been able to find it anywhere. i used to own it but it got all screwed up.

Einstruzende Neubauten is excellent, even now. For people interested, go to www.neubauten.org, their web site. Some neat stuff there. And they also did a special recording for "supporters," those who donated some $$ (all of $35 Paypal for me).

Thanks for all the info on the other groups, I'll check out Wumpscut for sure.

And a slightly humurous story: my sister-in-law was looking for something to get me for the holidays some eyars back. I told her I wanted Throbbing Gristle's Greatest Hits. Now, this 40-something woman looks at me, incredulously, and says "Throb...what ?" I said, "Throbbing Gristle -- think pulsating steak fat !" :-)

BTW, a lot of industrial music makes great speaker break-in material !!!! EN's "Strategies Against Architecture" disk 1 is amongst my favorites to burn in something new.

OK, enough.
