Re: Skinny Puppy the new Rubettes?!

Kudos to Crusty.

Now most of this "electronic music" is just not something i want to
listen to.  I've heard Thomas Raumschmiere, newer Coil material, newer
Autechre, newer Meat Beat, Peaches, Bogdan Raczynski, Supersilent, and
i even downloaded most of those mp3 samples from the last issue of
"The Brain" webzine and it just didn't strike a chord with me (with
the exception of _maybe_ 1 or 2 songs on The Brain).  And I used to
listen to older Ae, Coil and Meat Beat pretty often.

I hope SP isn't doing this just for the money.  And a Throbbing
Gristle reunion!!!  Why?  Their music wasn't that great to begin with.
 Never mind whether or not it was "influential".  I want something i
_want_ to listen to, and often.

Isn't there anything out right now that IS new and interesting _AND_
has vocals?

I'm tired of this "i'm so special and interesting 'cause i can make
neat sounds" or the never unpopular "murder death kill, murder death
kill" ....  or the always popular "we're angry with the U.S.
president!" or "glitch core" (picture:  DJ wearing sunglasses with
backward or sideways baseball cap).

Now i'm not sure if i just tooted my own horn or if i was looking for
advice (a bit of both, i think), but i'd be as happy as Larry if
someone could suggest a website that has some samples of new
electronic music with vocals that can be HEARD and UNDERSTOOD with
even interesting and good music to accompany those vocals.

But please, no coffee table conversation pieces that people buy for
their own image.
