Blood Axis - The Gospel of Inhumanity

Martial post-industrial with extensive sampling of sources such as A Clockwork Orange, The Wicker Man, Charles Manson and Johann S. Bach.

I can't believe it took me as long as it did in life to discover the neo-folk scene.

Faw:
Last album i bought was Murder by Death's 'in al bocca lupo'
Very folksy and a pretty big change from their traditional style, but i love it just as hard as their other stuff.
funny thing about the album name is that its an italian wine toast. 'In al bocca lupo' is 'in the wolf's mouth' loosley translated, and the response is 'so that the wolf may die'

sjbrot:
I bought Mint Records' group Immaculate Machine's first album, Transporter, at their concert tonight. I was kinda worried because they played pretty much every song off their second album, Ones and Zeros, and only did two off this one, and so in my logic that could mean that they were somehow admitting that it wasn't as good.

But that's sillyness. It's good. And when I bought it from Kathryn Calder (who also has a gig as the touring replacement for Neko Case in the New Pornographers since Carl Newman is her uncle) after the show, she seemed like a real sweetheart, which is always cool.

I assume that should be 'In bocca al lupo', which is a phrase to mean 'good luck' in Italian. Not literally, kind of in the same way as 'break a leg'.

To which you reply "crepi il lupo" - 'the wolf dies'.

Valrus:

--- Quote from: Johnny C ---Also: I'm surprised nobody really likes "Transformer." It's kind of abrasive but damned if I don't love it.

The first time I heard it I was like "What the fuck is this?!" but it's grown on me. I've sort of partitioned the album into "Take it" and "Leave it" songs, and that one is in the first category. Lively and rambunctious and doesn't wear out its welcome.
