Death Industrial Today

[tiny_tove]

get the new Death Continues compilation... I think it is a good portrait of what is going on today :)
just got my copies in and it is amazing...

Certainly the term is used out of original context, but I wouldn't say it is dead.

Long live Death!

[BTR]

The term does get thrown around a bit more casually than it should, IMO. Not that I support the obsessive "genre-fication" of noise/industrial that seems to go on, but if we are going to use these terms they should have some kind of fixed reference point.

So much of it is atmosphere. Right now, at least from my view, there is a popularity of this kind of maniacal/sadistic vibe in industrial, as opposed to the more stoic/somber atmospheres that really (for me anyway) make the style.

Nonetheless, I am excited to check out some of the projects mentioned in this thread that I haven't paid attention to before.

Pure example of projects that have Nothing to do in the "Death Industrial" category (in my opinion).

Listen to BDN's Great Death, feel the atmosphere.
All theses projects with a guy who scream like a pig being slaughtered is out of scope (in my opinion, once again).

Maybe that i'm too old to understand this mutation of the genre.

Beyond Enclosure – Dungeon Of The Total Void
Think I remember seeing mention of the project around here. The title pretty much says it all, as does this line from the anthemic "Forceful Acquisition Of Faith", I just wanted to avoid punishment as soon as possible... as soon as possible. Would like to know more about the project. Overall very well done. Reminds at intervals of a more gloom (or dungeon)- ridden ACL.

Haven't been paying much attention to Control over the years, and that has clearly been a mistake. I searched the board, and nobody seemed to have classify Control as death industrial; most often mentioned in power-electronic discussions.  There's probably some sort of status thing going on there.  I don't know.  Nevertheless, Control is some fantastic death industrial.  In Harm's Way impressed me.  I like that he's on Ant-Zen, or at least was on Ant-Zen.  The tonality and vibe are a great match.  I'd love to hear a Converter/Control collaboration.

I'd love to hear a Converter/Control collaboration.

Been dreaming of that since Control's first Ant-Zen release. In terms of style, vibe  and aesthetics I think it'd mesh incredibly well. But Converter has been out of the game for 10 years now? So I won't hold my breath.

That being said I was disappointed by the Navicon Torture Technology / Converter collab project Xenonics K-30. It wasn't terrible but with some more time and care it could've been much more interesting.

Perhaps also how it is presented- somewhat aggressively- in a live setting. (This based on exactly two experiences from the same tour ages back so wtf do I know.) Plus the somewhat nebulous definitions applied to death industrial. (This is not a complaint. In recent years I've decided I like the ambiguity.)

For current Italian project continuing the legacy of A.M., MO, etc. try Necrozoico.

his past projects Audax Italiano and Morva were excellent.

I would add the new GNAWD album Subterranean Rites,
sounds a little bit like his Atrox Pestis Drone Project crossed with Trepaneringsritualen.
Very modern Death Industrial for sure.

For me Death Industrial is BDN The Slaughterhouse / Necrose Evengelicum and the modern version of it
is

Alfarmania & Proiekt Hat ‎– Flugornas Herrar TAPE
I have nearly an religious feel for this tape.
Sounds very grinding and morbid, only use of analog equipment.

[xdementia]

To End It All is a very underrated death industrial project currently active

Pathogens

I also recently discovered Final Machine and not 100% sure if it falls into the death industrial genre but either way this shit just RIPS

There's a new Brighter Death Now album and a huge pre-Lille Roger box set.  From the couple of tracks I previewed, the latter doesn't fit into this thread.

The new BDN album is good. Not great, not crap, but solid. Certainly enjoyable. A nice, murky, slow moving affair all 'round - not much of the more aggressive PE type of thing, save perhaps "Permanently Soiled" and "Sex Crazy Amerika". Not sure how he recorded it but it's got a good low fidelity stench.

The Lille Roger material I've been looking forward to for a long time now (like a lot of other people I think). I think it very much hits the DI mark, particularly the lengthy track "My Lucky Day" which is obviously an antecedent to BDN tracks like "Fourteen". Sparser, in general, more along the lines of "Slaughterhouse". 

For mine, I think it's the Bomb The Daynursery "Primitive Perversions" release, which came out recently, that is closer to your crude, very early tape-hiss teenage-experiment stuff. The longer pieces, like "Track Three" and "Mental Depression II", are something of a chore to get through. More mood music.

This track has it all.  Industrial clanking.  Timpani.  Orchestral bells/chimes.  Sampled, bellowing, huge horns.  I wish I could find more death industrial or neoclassical like this.  It has to be out there.  Someone please point me towards more of this.
