I know people may be hoping for extensive Taint boxes and all sorts of rarities to be done, but when artists himself said that "you know how to do it", trusting one knows how he was doing it, I'm sure any label who worked with Keith knows he was never the guy who wanted every private release to be "out there" for anyone to buy. Real albums   were meant for bigger crowd, and it feels that very similar releases with no significant changes that function more like repress is good way to do it. To do revision and somehow popularize what was meant to be private and direct artist communication to his listeners (tiny cdr editions etc), we could easily let that be what it was.

Would you consider reissuing the "secret" 2016 tape on Finders? I don't know how many copies were made. They seem difficult to find.

Another old Taint interview here:

Like mentioned in the thread about Taint interviews, this one isn't very informative either, but it's still interesting enough to share if someone's missed it. Other interviews on the site include Merzbow and Lisa Suckdog.

Thanks for sharing!

Any rips out there of Sonic Sadist - "Dog Love"? I remember hearing a bit of it on the SI podcast.

Also, any live footage surface yet? I snagged that Pain Factory DVD reissues and I can confirm that it does not contain any live Taint footage.

I believe there exists video footage of TAINT gig in deadly actions. Vaguely remember seeing some of that and Grunt gig of the same fest.

https://www.discogs.com/release/28084735-Fin-Spastic-Colon-En-Nihil-Taint-The-Pain-Factory-Vol-3 - is this perhaps one to contain actual footage of Keith performing? Some live Taint CDrs/cassettes look like mere aural recordings.

I can confirm that there is no footage on there of Taint performing live. It's almost a video collage with a track behind it.

I don't know what else you'd expect. I remember seeing somewhere Keith said that the Harmed Live 2000 tracks were recorded through a Sony Boombox he carried around that tour. I can't say the same for Live Action Houston & it seems like the live track in The Untimely Silence was recorded in the studio.

Nah, I posted that link because that was exactly what I expected: no live footage of him.
