is the shit...
i just discovered this man and he's blowing my fucking mind. | |
|
Extensive catalogue... super talented and focused man... unrelentingly anti-racist... never ceases to impress me
 He's one of those artists that I was drawn to a long time ago and he's evolved at a similar pace as me... always putting out something new to explore and enjoy (like a certain other artist we know and love). It's never hurt that he's very easy on the eyes either.
 
meow! He wasn't lying with 'Pleasure is our business' 
I envy the NIN fans in Europe that were privileged to see Alec open for TR last year... couldn't be more complimentary... especially when YZ was peaking. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 12/03/2008 10:15PM by KheperaTchsef. | |

Ah the big man himself. Bass Terror Special Limited Edition, anybody get it? its unrelentingly beautiful! His recent DJ mixes have been fan-fucking-tastic too, cant stop listening to them on my IPod.
Foretaste is savage alright, saw him a few times on the tour and he blew me away! ICE! also, Kiss of Death live = Hell fuckin yes! I envy you ripe for seeing ATR supporting Nailz, oh how I wish I had heard of them back then... So I hear Alec's currently writing new stuff (and Nic Endo has finished her new record!), I speculate a return to some good ol Breakcore 
oh, and for those who dont already know, AE is on Last.fm [www.last.fm] like a good internet junkie hehe | |

my favorites on the golden foretaste are 'ice', 'new man', 'bug on my windshield' and 'robot love'.i love all of it really but i've noticed that those have the most play in itunes.
haven't gotten bass terror but i'll definitely get to it.i'm having a lot of fun playing catch up with this genius.i haven't been this excited about an artist in awhile. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 12/05/2008 05:47PM by bashavusta. | |

seen him opening for nin and it was beyond awful. I honestly felt like I had to throw up after his performance. Much too loud, everything came from the computers, all in all it was just plain terrible.
I still like plenty of his songs, but cd only,plz. | |
this album is kicking my ass. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 12/09/2008 11:22AM by bashavusta. | |

i will never forgive mr empire for the 'music' atari teenage riot inflicted on us when they supported nin in the uk on the fragility tour. that was half an hour of my life i'll never get back

Ghostchase posted: i think it would have to be a vocal/music collaboration. both of them working on just the sound would be strange, we already know that trent is a perfectionist and i'm feeling that from alec as well so i'm thinking it would be difficult, but it could happen. both those videos are awesome! | |

YES WE CAN! (to quote that guy in your avatar

I'll never forget seeing Atari Teenage Riot in the late 90s, at a tiny club. It was simultaneously one of the best, worst, and funniest shows I have ever seen... it was good because they had a lot of energy, and some interesting audio mayhem was going on. It was bad because the crowd didn't respond well, and Alec got REALLY angry. It was funny because Alec Empire told off a crowd of about 50 people by saying in a really strong German accent "You're asses are all blobs of shit!" Good times.
