GERMAN SHEPHERDS: Music for Sick Queers (Superior Viaduct) - LP + 7" + tape
This LP belongs to one of the most played in my collection. I was happy to see that Superior Viaduct was putting it out and finally giving German Shepherds the proper attention that they deserve as one of the lost legends of american industrial music.
Besides the tracks from original Del Amo edition you get three bonus tracks on the LP and an additional 7". Most exciting is the tape included with collectors edition. It is M&S Music (their own label I guess) version of the untitled 1992 tape that Tonspur issued... here titled "Experience the freedom of total control". It has been on my wantlist since I first heard about it.... Proprinted covers & tapes, shrinkwrapped. Probably old stock they never managed to sell. LP comes with 4 page booklet featuring great artwork and stories from only surviving member and some other guy....
Can't recommend this enough! http://superiorviaduct.com/germanshepherds/

OK Kristian, your word is good enough for me ... just bagged a special edition from Superior Viaduct, their re-issue of "California Babylon" last year was a highlight here at Hartop Towers!

Tack.

I doubt you'll regret it... I've got the California Babylon LP on some older release but picked up Scheintot last year - it was also a great release...
the live DVD is something I'd like to check out but don't remember if its sold separately.
Talking about US industrial - there is a second volume of the Deviation Social anthology coming out soon on Dais.

DEATH SQUAD "sarin" CD
Arrived today, and just started to go trough the massive batch of Death Squad discs. Normally I'm quite annoyed by most of digipak covers, but this time, I think the covers work out just fine. They actually look much better than I expected! Very faithful for the original spirit. If one doesn't have a clue where to start, I'd say "Fuck You" 2xCD is probably the best value for your money, but for guy like myself, full set is absolute mandatory!

is Michel 9 putting out all these re-issues or is this from a different label?

What can I say. Most of these discs do have some nice moments, but overall the formula is basically the same - huge amounts of delay and one-layered sound. Be it contact mic, noise generator, synth or so. Trucido was a little more interesting. Well, it's good to get to know these releases of course, but my rate for these still remains low and I start doubting that I'll hear something breath-taking.

Well, of course breath-taking is quite exaggerated term for anything... but while it's accurate to say formula is basically the same, in other hand... not exactly.
It is most often one layer of sound, but this is what also makes the difference. To be able to spot why Stammheim is like forceful noise wall noise anthem, why Trucido / Death Squad split stands out with grim vocals and more rotten overall sound. Why Sarin has those fierce delay loops going on and on.. creating saturated mechanic feel.  Or Death Textures with it's weird pretty unique start with short spoken word followed by this sadistic hight pitch torment for such an extended period. And so on... So far 7 CD's listened, will continue further!
Very much "the same", but so well isolated elements, individual releases stand out perhaps even easier than just solid brutal harsh noise all over.

[Levas]

yes, of course there are elements that differs from release to release. it's not like comparing vomir untitled c30 to vomir untitled c32. they stand out most likely, but not quite my cup of tea.

Scott Walker - Bish Bosch

Had very high expectations for this album, but it manages to surpass them all. Genius stuff. A little surprised that it hasn't received more attention here.

It's a good one. Just picked up the 2xLP last week, so still haven't given this enough playtime, but so far so good. Massive. Doesn't quite give me the same feeling as I got from The Drift though.
