Exactly ten years after the publication of his first official album (Krankhaus, published 06.06.2006.), “New school” industrial project Angelspit released his new album entitled “Cult Of Fake“. This is also their sixth studio album, not counting Nurse Grenade in 2004 that for some reason the water as EP.

An InterView with Zoog Von Rock of Angelspit By (Ilker81x)
For a whole decade, Angelspit has stood as a singular entity in the electro/industrial music scene, characterized by aggressively crunchy beats, caustic electronic textures, unorthodox songs structures, and driven by socio-politically charged lyrics that stem from front man Zoog Von Rock’s in-your-face punk sensibilities. Since the band’s 2006 Krankhaus debut, the lineup has changed, but the band’s sonic and lyrical vocabulary has stayed the same, embracing edgy fashion and varying styles of electronic music to create a unique style that is identifiably Angelspit. For the band’s sixth album, CULT OF FAKE, Von Rock took things in a different direction; still true to the virulent and distorted industrial clanks and clatters of the past, CULT OF FAKE took a heavy influence from modern dance music, incorporating elements of techno and EDM in a way the band’s music had only hinted at before to create what Von Rock has referred to as “the soundtrack to ‘Hell Yeah!’” Funded via a successful Kickstarter campaign, CULT OF FAKE also looked back to the band’s past with the infusion of sounds and samples from Krankhaus, serving as a keen reminder of where Angelspit has been, how far the band has come, and how much further things have yet to go. Taking the time to discuss his music with ReGen, Von Rock speaks about the development of Angelspit’s musical identity over the course of the last decade to culminate in his latest outing. With topics ranging from classic science fiction and political history to the breaking down of the industrial scene, Von Rock declares loudly and proudly, “Fuck Art! Let’s Dance!”
