ANGELSPIT
Here is band I like and thought I would share with everyone.
ABOUT: (taken from their site)
A riot grrl with a vocoder and
a cyberpunk with a distortion pedal. Thick and rich with burning
analogue synths and contempt, driven by beats like shards
of metal and glossy with pvc and sweat, Angelspit is a Sydney
industrial/electro duo to watch out for.
Since forming in 2004, Angelspit
have taken their energetic live show throughout Australia,
New Zealand, USA and Europe supporting bands such as KMFDM,
Frontline Assembly, Front 242, Crüxshadows, Ayria, Tankt
and IKON.
With their unique blend of industrial,
rock, noise, metal and a touch of pop, Angelspit are forging
a new style in cyber punk locally and internationally. Now
with the release of their debut album Krankhaus,
their sights are set on annihilating audiences and putting
the aggression back into industrial music. Krankhaus
features 14 tracks of blisteringly fat synths, with angry
distorted beats and scathing vocals, evoking themes of horror,
medical experimentation and the beautifully grotesque.
Angelspit's complex, rich and
disturbing imagery enhances the sinister overtones in their
music. This nightmarish aesthetic is the core that drives
Angelspit's imagery, music and live show.
US record label Dancing Ferret Desics signed Angelspit for USA and European
ROCKness.
After touring East Coast of
the USA in Feb/March 07 supporting the Crüxshadows and
Ayria, Angelspit are now based in Berlin Germany. They have
played at festivals such as Wave Gotik Treffen (Germany),
Castle Party (Poland) and Summer Darkness (Netherlands). Angelspit
currently gigging thoughout European. |
