I must say that Recombinant has made it pretty clear about his expertise in the wide realm of Electronic music.... and yes I read your other posts and have d/l your music..................buuuuttttttt
Front 242 - 6.21.3.11 Up Evil (is the actual name of the CD). Calling that a worthy 242 album is almost on the same level as calling Mr. Reznor an orignial (which I think you debunked before...props to ya). Patrick was on the downside of things when he recorded that and went very, very commercial.
As for Wumpscut/VNV/Apop/Assemblage, same school, different teachers, and lots of copying each others homework (I'm sure even Tarryk will flame me for that). There's a bunch of bands that attempted to copy the pseudo-industrial/electronic sound and some did it well (Nitzer Ebb for one), but why not Front Line Assembly....at least Bill Leeb had the balls to be prolific in melding industrial and electronics....and even stepped out of bounds with Intermix. Skinny Puppy pioneered the fusion of post Throbbing Gristle/Einterzende Neubeuten/Psychic TV and electronic genres. Oh yea, almost forgot about Foetus.
And if I can go ahead and be a bit of lisetning critic (and a club DJ that spun this stuff mid-90's) Recombinant, I like your stuff, but it's a bit redundant of the exact bands/projects that you mentioned in your list....hmmmm. Like I said, its good, and very professionaly done, but maybe your old school aint quite old enough NIN.
