KMFDM c/d

Nicely done, Patton.

Hahaha!

I am going to be seeing KMFDM with the wife here in Philly in a few weeks. Looking forward to seeing the band for the first time since back in the early '90s.

ahh .. so there is some ilm chat re this gathering.
which is timely as today i found out the uk side of this tour is supported by none other than sheep on drugs.
i had no idea that SOD were still an active concern.
then i looked at the bands website and wished they weren't.
now, i believe that hidden in the archive is the SOD '15 minutes of fame' cd single and a few kmfdm albums (incl. a recent one .. ).
so for all the vibes that tell me this will be a collection of balding mid 40s blokes wishing that reagan was still in power, i have a slight desire to see this tour.
should i stay at home and watch another re-run of the matrix, or venture out and revel in the old school industrial excess.

Well, both of those are the same thing, so.

touche sir ..

I don't know why it taken me so long to use the internet to find out who was on the western soundtrack version of Street Fighter: Animated Movie. I was shocked to find In The Nursery. But KMFDM- "Ultra" was the main one I wanted to know.

arse.
wish i had gone to see them in bristol now.
i just really enjoyed UAIOE.
possibly due to the on-u influence (i was nudged to listen to UAIOE by the new on-u compilation that is all about AMS vs industrial)
so, now trying ANGST again.
the cheese factor is winning me over.
i think my problem was that i never wanted industrial to be fun.
however, it's making a lot more sense tonight.

I really like UAIOE. I like the two metally songs on there better than the rest of their metally career by far, they're fun and dumb.

i kinda like some of their stuff. they're very aware of the dumb. entertainingly self-mocking.

my brother and his friend have a treasured concert moment involving En Esch pouring Goldschläger into their faces from the stage when they were like 16.

Saw them on the Angst tour in, holy shit, 1993, and had a lot of fun.

I saw them open for Ministry in... 1989? The Mind Is A Terrible Thing tour. It was a blast all around.

Sorta tangent, but I'm seeing The Revolting Cocks minus Al in a few months and I'm weirdly excited about it.

Going by The Cocks. Guess the Revolting part was Al.

Wild. I wonder what they sound like these days? I don't think I've actually heard anything they've done since Beers, Steers...

Didn't they do a whole Al-less album a couple of years ago? I remember him saying something about how he'd passed the name on to some bunch of young reprobates...whatever they're doing, it can't possibly be worse than Linger Fickin' Good or whatever that album was called.

Are there many clubs that cater to industrial dance music anymore or has it melted into the electronic backround? I'd have to figure in major cities there would be at least 'nights' out there devoted to this sound.

There's a gothy club here (Baltimore) and the occasional industrial DJ night at one of the hipster-y establishments.

The RevCo show is apparently all of Bigsexy Land + other jams which sounds fun to me.

still one of my fave '90s jams tbh

ok, they are coming to bristol again.
on a sunday.
i have no excuse at the moment not to go other than the usual parenting crap.

(the USA part of the tour has OHGR as support i.e. skinny puppy !)

oh and i need to say this : but MURDER from UAIOE = TACKHEAD
