Ya wouldn’t dare name yer album this without some head-bobbing yahoo on there. And T. Raumschmiere is no dummy. Not a showoff, not a wanker, he’s a madman.
Industrial metal from Colorado. The pounding best the atmospheric stuff. Cover of Lita Ford’s duet with Ozzy, “Close My Eyes Forever” would rule with more umph.
Cyber chaos from suburbanites who really wanna be bad. Getting to industrial by way of Marilyn Manson is like wanting to be a rock band cuz ya like Creed.
Pigeonholing VHS Or Beta as !!! or Radio 4 with a Robert Smith clone for a frontman would be too easy. But it’s accurate, and by no means a negative portrayal.
More polished than many of their peers, Radio 4 offers up a blend of electro-infused post-punk that goes beyond the ubiquitous raw energy and low-fi aesthetic.
Celebrations of B&D relationships, sci-fi imagery, the fetish scene, tech-sensualists, and post-alternative rage. One of the best in the industrial dance genre.
Lucia, the siren, vixen, and chanteuse, is best known as the kick-ass gal on stage with the KMFDM guys. She was also the singer in cybernetic rock group Drill.
Juno Reactor’s sixth album, Labyrinth, continues the world music fusion that is uniquely Ben Watkins. The album contains two tracks from The Matrix film series.
Sounds worldly, lots of cultural textures, and beats that move, but don’t (usually) skitter or try to impress. This should be listened to from end to end.
