anyone here like skinny puppy? i've been listening to a lot
of their stuff for like the last week or so. they have some
really good songs. if you like industrial music, you gotta
check em out.
+ does anybody know anything about ogre and cevin key
getting back together for a new album? i'd really like to
see that happen...

Oh God yeah... classic stuff, and I'm even pretty fond of
their last album, it seems pretty maligned though... I love
Hardset Head.

Addiction, VX Gas Attack, Assimilate, Two Time Grime,
Smothered Hope, Incision, Facsist Jockitch, Worlock and its
Beatle sample... probably my fave tracks by them.

I want to hear Tear Garden, collaboration with Edward
Ka'Spel, but I haven't had time to look into it yet. There's
lots of Skinny Puppy offshoots and side-quests that I want
to hear...

many of skinny puppy's members went to start other groups.
al jourgensen of course started ministry, and buzz mccoy
started my life with the thrill kill kult. of course,
neither band would reach the artistic gothic epoch that
skinny puppy did... i don't know what cevin key is doing
right now.

their old stuff is really good, check out the song
"smothered hope". also go to Launch and watch
the video for "warlock", it's pretty intense. new album
coming soon, some details over on my site (all
secondhand)

it sounds really silly to say if you like industrial music
then check skinny puppy out. if you're not already down
then you probably don't actually like "industrial" music! :P


i'd recommend BRAP 2CD set for the idm kids...i'm a big
puppy fan but thats my favorite weird stuff from them.

one of my favorite bands ever. I was just listening to Too
Dark Park on the way to work this morning.

Last Rights is probably my favorite SP album. then TOo DarK
parK
then maybe
Rabies or something.

Skinny Puppy has the most original sound in industrial
music. It's almost not industrial. More accurately, it's
hardcore gothic horror music.
They are often imitated, but never equaled.

My first SP album was Last Rights. I was in highschool at
the time and i would listen to it while doing my calculus
homework. jeez that was 10 friggin years ago and that album
still doesn't sound dated.

does anybody think there is anything good coming from the
current "industrial" scene? i don't really put my ear to it
much...well because everything i've heard sounds too
recycled or watered down. although i imagine there has to
be some decent bands...

yeah, kind of my feeling too. its strange that people still
hang onto the same tropes in the g/i scene, when there is so
much music that has built on them or mutated them and is
new/exciting....

Skinny Puppy's great. I listened to cEvin Key's latest
release "The Dragon Experience" earlier today, it's good.
Much in the same vein as Puppy's Back and Forth stuff.

many of skinny puppy's members went to start other
groups.
al jourgensen of course started ministry, and buzz mccoy
started my life with the thrill kill kult. "


Buzz or Al were never members of Skinny Puppy. Al produced
some tracks on Rabies but by then he already put out several
Ministry albums.

im suprised SP ever got as far as they did with such an
inaccessible sound. especially back in those days. great
stuff! cleanse fold & manipulate and vivisectVI are my
faves. sp makes ALOT more sense if you listen while stoned
tho

I don't have much of their stuff - Too Dark Park and Bites.

Too Dark Park is one of the few pieces of work by anyone
that I'd describe as scary. Shores of Pluto indeed.

what's an album to start with? they're on my list, haven't

I'm the type of guy cutups was ridiculing. I like
industrial but have no skinny puppy. just Front 242,
Haujobb, Front Line Assembly, etc.

skinny puppy fucking rocks, no doubt about it. the process
is one of my favorite albums ever, hahah, to bad it doesn't
even sound remotely like anything they'd ever done...so it's
kind of like a separate category i suppose.

but besides the process....last rights and too dark park are
their best work imo. my favorite songs
being....inquisition, the killing game, and spasmolytic.

My favorites are VIVISectVI and Last Rights...

And yes, cEv and Ogre are getting back together again. An EP
(or single) is said to be released this autumn. An album is
due sometime early next year... But it will most likely be
delayed as always.

I might possibly be Skinny Puppy's biggest fan. I would say
that Process is the WORST Skinny Puppy there is (but it's
still pretty good) I would say that Bites is a good place to
start out. Rabies is great as are Last Rights and Mind: The
Perpetual Intercourse. Well, I'd say all of it is great.
cEvin Key is the greatest musician in the world. if you go
to his website, you can get CD's from his vault that he's
released over the past year an a half. It was the best $140
I ever spent.

A little recap of what cEvin Key, Ogre and Dywane Goettel
have done through the years.
Pigface - Ogre did some stuff with them. I'm not a fan.

Revolting Cocks - Ogre did some stuff with them. I'm also
not a fan.

Images in Vogue - cEvin Key was drummer for this Canadian
Synth-pop band. I love them because it makes me laugh when I
listen to songs like "lust for love" featuring the member of
such a dark band.

Tear Garden - Great stuff. This is cEvin Key and Edward Ka
Spel. It's like Legendary Pink Dots, only better.

Doubting Thomas - I really love this. It was just cEvin Key
and DRG, and they only released a CD and a single (The
Infidel and Father Don't Cry) but they are really, really
good.

Hilt and Flu - These were really really bizarre. I listen to
them, and I can't figure out what genre it's supposed to be,
whether it's serious or not, or how I feel about it. It's
like a puzzle.

Download – my very favorite! Download is my favorite band
ever! Brilliant stuff. The band members vary, but they have
two distinct styles, with Mark Spybey (Dead Voices on Air)
or without. I think I prefer without but the early stuff
with is spectacular too. Download III is the best CD ever.

Ritalin (or RX) This was post-skinny puppy Ogre and Martin
Atkins. Pretty weird stuff.

Ohgr – This is post-skinny puppy Ogre and Mark Walk.
Pretty good stuff (not as good as post-skinny puppy cEvin
Key though)

cEvin Key’s Solo work – brilliant, although not exactly
solo work. He collaborates with a lot of different artists
on

on it, but it’s still brilliant stuff.

Involution – Bree and Paris with cEvin Key. One CD, it’s
good. It has a really cool consistent texture.

Plateau – cEvin Key with Phil Western. Good stuff, not as
experimental as Download, more upbeat and playful.

Cyberaktif – Skinny Puppy – Ogre + Bill Leeb. It comes
across as weak Skinny Puppy, but if you like Skinny Puppy,
you should like this, though not as much.

Yeah, so cEvin Key is a genius and Ogre rules (although is
not at the level of cEvin Key)

(sorry about the boxs for the previous part. I cut and
pasted it from word and it autocorrected to fancier
characters)

Doh! I was too busy writing the apology to actually correct
what I just pasted in! Well, aren't I a horses ass.
Cyberaktif should read:
Skinny Puppy - Ogre + Bill Leeb
Hopefully that makes mroe sense!

My buddy bought Dywane Grotels SY22 from cEvin key like last
year. They had an auction or something.

ogRh is great. I hear the new album blows but the one with
all the Dog Gerbals on the cover is great ... WEL! thats
what its called.

Each album sounds way different then the next. I would say
listen to Rabies, bites, Remission, and Too dark park and
you'll be al set.

Used to be a hardcore fan back in the day... haven't
listened to them in ages.

Never been sure why those american bands like SP and NIN
were classified as Industrial... it has nothing to do with
what Industrial originaly was.

when were smashing pumpkins EVER considered industrial?
haha. anyways, broken and the downward spiral do have a lot
of industrial elements but his other releases have less but
it does make sense why he was somewhat grouped with
industrial although its not completely correct either. i
dont consider skinny puppy industrial anyways either.

Download III? The best ever?
Are we talking about the same album here? Are you sure you
are not confusing it with III Steps Forward- the last
album?
Because III the most godaweful download album ever followed
closely by Effector
PLATEAU "Music for Grass Bars" and "Space Cake" is far more
experimental and challenging than either III or EFFECTOR.
PLATEAU is well worth checking out.
Also HILT is truly brilliant and visionary stuff. Sublime
Mix of Rock, Psychedelia and awe inspiring electronics that
puts the likes of Radiohead and such to shame. And this was
all done well over a decade ago. "Journey to the Centre of
the Bowl" is an incredible album and it veers from sweetest
pop to Nastiest electronics, fluid styles pulsing and
shifting all over. Mr. Bungle fans ought to take note.
