i seem to have forgotten to post this as influential on the track of the day, which is now track of the month in order to ease the tracks in a bit more slowly and get the counts up. i posted 70 tracks all at once. that was an error. so, now i guess there's going to be some retreading.

i'm picking this out specifically because the song of the day is full of flanging. and i know now that that's a cabaret voltaire thing. as far as the exact track is concerned, throbbing gristle is actually a better comparison musically - and einsturzende neubauten is a better comparison, thematically. but i didn't know that when i wrote it. what i knew at the time was this disc, which was pumping in the headphones every day for a year.

and i mean every day. for a year. at least. in hindsight, i have to say this record probably warped and damaged me pretty badly. or, to be more objective, that it really strongly shaped me.

(relative tracks: fire, most of the late 90s emo/noise/grunge/industrial demos that are at bandcamp but not youtube, bach goes loopy, happiness is a harsh gun, weed in the yard, all unauthorized remixes, the inridiculous compilation, the curious george suite, j's adventure in guitarland, schizoid, like divine amoebas, leonardo pisano, all symphonies and others that are not yet uploaded)
