So, here's how it goes: 🙂
The band first kicked things off back in 1997 over in Chicago, and they've been absolutely crushing it on the live circuit ever since, haven't they?
Back in 2000, this group first started making waves with their unique blend of industrial and crossover sounds, occasionally sprinkled with just a touch of coldwave metal. While you might notice their musical direction shifting slightly from one record to the next, the core of their sound has always remained firmly rooted in industrial. Up until now, they've mostly focused on releasing a steady stream of DIY albums and various EPs, but since 2005, things have really started to pick up speed with their promotional efforts, leading to a surge of interest from all sorts of international labels reaching out to them. Isn't it fascinating how a band can maintain such a consistent foundation while still evolving through different releases?
Back in 2007, they actually entered that contest hosted by Nine Inch Nails and managed to land a spot on the list of eight remixes featured on the bonus disc for the Year Zero re-release, which is slated for March 2008. They're also putting out...
Can you believe that the album "Porn Machin" is actually coming out through Insurrection Records?

The new album is already out, and can you believe they're already deep into the work for their third record, "The Conquistadors"?
If you head over to their website, you might find that they actually have a few of their albums available for free download. Isn't it always such a pleasant surprise when artists make their work so accessible to everyone?
If you’re sitting there wondering what DREDDUP actually sounds like, how can I even begin to describe it? If you find yourself gravitating toward the heavy hitters like Laibach, Ministry, Nine Inch Nails, Throbbing Gristle, OhGr, or even Clawfinger, then you might just have found your new favorite obsession.
So, here is the lineup of the official releases:
Looking back at 1998, I can't help but wonder if we truly grasped how much impact the Abnormal Waltz release was going to have on the scene? It came out through that incredible trifecta of Amduscias, Dadaist Audio, and Neurotic Minds, and honestly, wasn't there something just uniquely electric about the way those labels collaborated back then?
Internal Cranium Bleeding, Deadknife,
Far from Showbiz (ho / USA / POL / CAN)
Looking back at 2005, I find myself thinking about that standout release from Mr. Borndead's Feast, specifically the LP put out through MoocSound and Dadaist Audio over in the USA. Doesn't it feel like such a distinct era for music when you revisit those specific sounds?
2005 - One Way (Various Artists - Knitting Factory, Bedroom Tapes)
2007 - The Complete Works 1996-2007 (KO - Call Me Bitch Cut My Wrist (USA))
2007 - Bootleg Live Recordings (KO - Call Me Bitch Cut My Wrist (USA))
Can you believe we’re looking back at 2007 and the release of the Porn Machin LP on Insurrection Records? It really makes you wonder how much the scene has shifted since then, doesn't it?
