Roxxí Wallace from Brutal Resonance reviews CULT OF FAKE
Regen Magazine’s Ilker Yücel gives CULT OF FAKE 4.5 Stars
10 years since the band’s full-length debut, Krankhaus, and Angelspit is still cranking out that signature blend of crunchy electronics with an uncompromising in-your-face attitude against banality and societal norms. For this sixth album, Zoog Von Rock called upon the fans for what turned out to be a strikingly successful Kickstarter campaign, and given the lyrical content of Cult of Fake, inspired by numerous political conversations held with fans and drawing on their opinions of the world, it’s perhaps the most fan-centric record Angelspit has yet produced. As well, though the previous album featured numerous collaborations, Cult of Fake is predominantly driven by Von Rock’s singular musical vision, incorporating samples and effects originally utilized on the band’s earlier recordings, ensuring that even after 10 years and six albums, Angelspit retains its unique identity.

Angelspit has signed with Negative Gain Productions at its headquarters in Chicago. The new deal adds Angelspit’s new album, CULT OF FAKE , to Negative Gain’s already strong roster of bands, including The Gothsicles and Mr. Kitty.
Made popular for its driving industrial sound, Angelspit sees the new partnership as a perfect match. “Negative Gain pushes dance acts with an alternative edge, and our new album will fit right in,” says Zoog Von Rock. Already funded by Kickstarter, the album will receive the widespread push it needs thanks to Negative Gain.
“We are always looking at new ways to add great music to our already diverse roster of great artists,” added Roger Jarvis, co-founder of Negative Gain. “You are going to love this album just as much as we do!”
Cult of Fake is Angelspit’s sixth studio album, due June 6, 2016 through Negative Gain. The album uses the harsh industrial percussion sampled from Angelspit’s early albums, now mixed with club destroying beats. Kickstarted by the fans, Cult of Fake is Angelspit’s first album to focus on dance music without sacrificing its established sound.

Musically, CULT OF FAKE uses many of the original sounds from Nurse Grenade, Krankhaus and Blood Death Ivory – the harsh clangs and slams sampled in those early days. This time we’ve done something different – we’ve mixed brutal sonic mayhem with club destroying beats. CULT OF FAKE is our first dance album…and it SLAMS!

This Frequency Divider outputs +/-5volt signals 1 and 2 octaves below the input frequency – similar to a Roland SH-101.
It has an adjustable Pulse Width which is output at the original frequency, -1 octave and -2 octave.
Since all outputs are +/-5volt it can be used to drive CV inputs.
It also mangles regular audio which is effected by the adjustable Pulse Width – AND outputs the mangled audio as +/-5volt…so you can use this to inject some mayhem into your modular’s CV inputs – this thing ROCKS!
