This was the perfect ending to Halloween weekend. What started with black metal in a dive bar, and climaxed with Rob Zombie on Halloween, was tied up neatly with Skinny Puppy.I literally woke up in LA, drove straight home, typed up my review, and hopped back in the car to go to the show. [...]
Industrial. Gothic. Darkwave. EBM. Electronica. Techno. IDM.These are just a few of the terms you’re likely to run across if you Google a few reviews of the singular entity known as Skinny Puppy. One of Canada’s most important and lasting contributions to pop culture (they are definitely the anti-Barenaked Ladies), this Vancouver-based band was around before many of the aforementioned m
I pine for something on the level of The Process. I assume many long time fans hate The Process, but it was a seminal work. Both Mythmaker and Greater Wrongs of the Right are solid works. However I feel there is something missing. Some "ooomf" that is gone as The Puppies age. I will forever love this band. I will never forget being introduced to them while browsing in Tower Records while ...
Ok. Finally I get to come home tomorrow for a week. Then back to this island once again. So we are finishing off the programing right now to DJ Villo from Balance and Timewriter. This will probably be one of the best looking night clubs in the Caribbean. I have programed some killer media server cue's. These DL2's rock in this room.

It's not even worth talking about it, but I blew a perfect opportunity and now I'm pissed at myself. Despite the fact that the images in this video are about, well, death, dismemberment, and nuclear destruction (yes, I used to think that was some cool shit. I never did wear much black though), the song really doesn't scream despair to me. It's more like - well, that shit's over, and I have to g...
Death feels like the butterflycan't escape the scarred lieReal relationships must dieUnderneath a scarred lieWe globalize the others liesWe sanctify the great disguiseWhat if change gateDon't watch it show your shapeDesperate in deathDeath will tell themDeath will kill themDeath will tellFirst everything must recedeThen all will tell us to fearand hear the sullen respite clearsinto a time never...
