New Angelspit Album : “Hideous and Perfect” - 09:09:09
Hailed as being one of the most innovative new industrial bands Angelspit return with a new album Hideous and Perfect, a confronting audio visual statement set to corrupt listeners the world over.
Hideous and Perfect promises to be Angelspit’s darkest release to date with its sonic textures ranging from hard pounding beats, to organic atmospheric samples, topped off by a feverishly powerful male and female dual vocal assault. The duo’s sonic exploration and creative process took them out of the studio, as they recorded much of the album’s pounding industrial percussion at an abandoned shipping yard in Sydney Harbour. They fashioned and sampled handmade acoustic and electronic instruments, imparting a unique organic sonic texture to Hideous and Perfect, while also giving a nod to the experimental roots of industrial music.
Hideous and Perfect is a vicious concoction of industrial guitar riffs, clever hooks and pathologically disturbed synths. Consisting of 12 harsh, heavy and deliberate tracks set to self destruct, Hideous and Perfect is challenging as it is catchy. Zoog and Destroyx’s turbulent vocal onslaught deals thematically with an apathetic cashed up society who are simply ‘bored to death’. Angelspit’s double edged lyrics can be poetically poignant, at other times witty, but are at all times severely potent.
Angelspit’s aesthetic concept is equally as iconic as their musical statement, as they continue to develop their fierce design and fashion aesthetic. Visually arresting photography and bold typography characterises the album’s striking artwork making Hideous and Perfect a defining album of the industrial genre.
CD cover and presales to be announced next week.

RIP MJ
my god…i can not believe it.
The first concert i went to was Michael Jackson -it absolutely blew me away. I’ve been a big fan and have massive respect for him.
I’ve always wanted to know how he makes music - but he rarely spoke about how he made his music.
life is short…it’s too short.
BRING THE ROCK!
Today’s Startling Realisation:
I’ve given so much advice to my immediate friends…i don’t think any of them have listened. They’re still in the same rut, making the same excuses, delaying their art with the same procrastinations:
“my studio isn’t ready yet”
“I’ll start painting next week”
“I’ll wait until my job settles down a bit”
“I just need that one more piece of gear”
They are exactly like they were 5 years ago, only they are now more damaged and much more bitter and cynicle.
Maybe I should shut up…
I’m not angry about it. I’m not angry at them. In fact, it’s a good opertunity to look at myself and ask myself how I’ve grown.
You can be anywhere, with anyone, doing anything…and still repeat the same mistakes and fall into the same rut.
I remember at my old job, my boss told be that I “had to think seriously about my career”. So I did. The next day I quit.
I wanted to be a Rock Pig. Why the hell was I being confussed for someone who wanted to build a career in management?
Focus. Move forward. It doesn’t take money. It takes determination.
We (Angelspit) are, at this moment, working on something that we hope will ignite your fire and bring about a personal revolution within you. If our words can’t do it…I hope our actions will.
ROCK!
SYNTHI PORN #4
Another brilliantly random SYNTHI add from the 70’s.
really really random. I think they’re trying to appeal to the “Benny Hill” audience….either that or people who are into beastiality.
