Danish supremacy!

If anyone is selling the Sexdrome 7" on PI let me know, thanks!

DOKUMENT #1 2xLP is pretty good document of the Denmark Posh Isolation related scene. I think I was there when the gatefold group photo was taken. Not in the photo of course, but in city. Seeing such large posse walking on street at once quite impressing. Double LP is mix of electronics, post-punk, power electronics, sort of "noiserock/black metal" kind of fusion. I can of course admit that for my liking, it's D.D., Forza Albino and Puce Mary and such who are the most interesting, but despite vast diversity of styles, atmosphere is good through-out entire double LP and especially if one has missed many of the small edition tapes of label, this is good overview.  Very good quality vinyl, polylined innersleeves, booklet with photos, gatefold..

Maybe someone knows if the PUCE MARY "Success" LP will be re-released? Or released on CD?

[SiClark]

I really hope that gets re-released. I am not paying £30 for it, or whatever the guy on discogs is trying to charge for it.

[FreakAnimalFinland]

some talks of it, but when and by who, we'll have to wait and see.

Would be nice as i also missed that one and what i heard online sounds great..

I must say the things he said in that interview was pretty dumb. I know many of the guys from that label and that scene and like much of it (especially Age Coin). I have listened to The Brainbombs since '96 (but did not see them back the day, but I did see the band they did a split with, Anal Babes), I first heard Merzbow on a Relapse CD around that time (which you could buy in many metal stores), I heard a Cold Meat Industry compilation CD early on (it was probably because of CMIs connection with Mortiis they were famous), and I know and have listened to all of the stuff that Special Interests writes about. I don't want to say that I don't like Posh Isolation if, say, some kid likes it and don't understand why I am "too old" to like it. But seriously... that is just too arrogant things to say. I pretend like I don't care, but when some hipster noise kid thinks I'm a "new one" or a "poser" because they have read Special Interests's badly written magazine... LOL.

Besides that, Leæther Strip was 5x times as famous back in the day (although I am not the biggest EBM fan).

On the topic of Danish industrial... I have been really into the output of Martin Schacke lately, head of the Moral Defeat label. I have yet to hear a project of his that doesn't deliver top quality: Prostitutes of the 19th Century, Body Stress, Haraam, and even his club output under "Schacke".

I'm not sure where this scene fits into the grand scheme of things being an observer from America, but I enjoy everything surrounding it: Instruments of Discipline, the project Iron Sight is very solid and the Hellenic industrial techno from Restive Plagonna and his Several Minor Promises label is also top notch. I don't know if "rave/techno culture" and industrial even intersect in American music aside from the random mallcore aggrotech bands but this is my shit.

Brutalist Tapes is another small Danish label I've found on Bandcamp that always delivers. Varulv uses obviously very modern (modular?) synths to very interesting effect, and that Forgotten Youth release is great apocalyptic folk.

This could be fun!

[Cementimental]

The Den Jyske Harsh Noise Mafia + related acts/festivals/zines/etc are great but I guess most of you pro-fa types wouldn't be into their stuff anyway.

Recently I have enjoyed the latest releases from SEKTION1 and Brutalist Tapes, from Copenhagen.

I was just listening to the Carnal Exhibition tape. It is really well done lofi Industrial PE. The subdued synths give the tape an eerie feel that does justice to the theme. The other SEKTION1 releases were also good. Its cool to see PE/Industrial being done in Denmark again since Posh Isolation have moved on to something else.

Yeah same, hope he will continue with Moral Defeat and his more noise related projects (especially liking Haraam) and not focus on his Schacke output only.

I think I remember reading somewhere (perhaps the Moral Defeat Facebook page) that he was essentially finished with that. The Schacke stuff is a somewhat guilty pleasure so I'd be bummed if that's where his main focus ends up. Thankfully he does seem to still be releasing material as Prostitutes of the 19th Century, the last release on on Modern Decadence is incredible.

In the vein of Haraam, the two tribal techno tapes Moral Defeat put out by Sortlegeme are in a league of their own. Unfortunately that project went into industrial drone territory that is not the same quality as the techno releases, but very worth checking out. Referred to as Danish but i don't think Schacke is behind that one.

Sortlegeme guy is not Schacke, you are right. This guy is also involved in Clinical Traits - industrial ambient/concrete music stuff. Cheers for the nice words about Brutalist! Edit: BTW, Body Stress is playing in Copenhagen in two weeks, don't know if that means project will be more active from now on? I must admit I doubt it, as far as I know he is pretty much 100 % commited to techno now..

Huh, thanks for the insight. I was gonna say, based on the Kisloty Forever EP I had a feeling Schacke was committing to club culture for the time being. Regardless, I enjoyed the rest while it lasted. Do you have any links to the Clinical Traits stuff? Having a hard time finding anything on Bandcamp etc.
