Anzi – Black Dog Bias (Chemistry Music)

Everyone has gaps in their collections. Mine happens to be industrial and synthetic rock. Anzi (which even Last.Fm struggles to locate) nicely fills that gap, so my points of reference here are inevitably going to be bands like Rammstein, Ministry… Continue Reading →

Revolting Cocks – Live! You Goddamned Son Of a Bitch (Wienerworld)

As far as I am concerned this is absolutely a seminal live album and one that’s up there alongside Ministry ‘In Case You Didn’t Feel Like Showing Up.’ There are quite a few parallels between the two, as line ups… Continue Reading →

Steve Bastado & The Albert Hoffman Experience – Centurion 29110 (Flicknife)

There is no denying that Steve Bastado aka Steve (Speed Machine) Redman has led one hell of an interesting life. He probably has the scars to prove it and he definitely has the tattoos. He was in both the Magic… Continue Reading →

Cocksure – TVMALSV (Metropolis)

Well this is a welcome return for a brand new band, yeah I know that doesn’t really make sense but…what we actually have here is Chris Connelly going back to his roots in the band that he was an original… Continue Reading →

Misery Index – The Killing Gods (Season Of Mist)

Misery Index have carved their own niche, emerging from the shadows of Dying Fetus (and let’s be honest – sounding a fair bit like them) especially over the course of their last few albums – their previous two records (Heirs… Continue Reading →

Hounds – Begin Transmission 2 (S/R)

I caught Hounds opening for Killing Joke back in March 2013 and found their somewhat brash and pumping electro beats suitable entertainment before the main event. This EP turned up complete with a Killing Joke cover and a 3 disc… Continue Reading →

Lord Mantis – Death Mask (Profound Lore)

The last album by Lord Mantis 2012 release ‘Pervertor’ was a rancid, vile seething mass of corrosive guitar work and scathing vocals so as soon as this appeared I was quick to grab it and throw it on my review… Continue Reading →

Prong – Ruining Lives (SPV)

Another Prong album, and yet another line-up, the only consistent feature being founder, guitarist, writer, producer and vocalist Tommy Victor, now supported by Jason Christopher on bass and ex-Winds Of Plague drummer Art Cruz. This constant need for reinvention may… Continue Reading →

Ministry – From Beer To Eternity (13th Planet)

So this is the last Ministry album ever…. Hold on, been here before, who is anyone trying to kid? There is a reason this perhaps unlucky 13th studio album had to exist and it is a completely legitimate one. Al… Continue Reading →

Ministry – The Lost Gospels According To Al Jourgensen With Jon Wiederhorn (Da Capo Press)

This is a book that had to be written and one that I had to read, which made me feel somewhat guilty when it fell through the letterbox due to the fact I knew nothing about it. I certainly felt… Continue Reading →

Deth Rok – Us & Them (13th Planet)

Deth Rok, from Ministry collaborator Aaron Havill, falls into a broad category of music that I would describe as come-down music. Or, more accurately, music that you should avoid – at all costs – listening to when on an actual… Continue Reading →

Suicide Commando – When Evil Speaks (Out Of Line)

Bridging the gap between the electronica and industrial genres is where we find the aggrotech bands. For those of you not already familiar with the term, aggrotech is very basically a harsh form of electronica with a dark and oppressive… Continue Reading →
