NEW Skinny Puppy "HanDover" forthcoming

[DJ Saint]

Skinny Puppy's long-awaited new album, Handover, will be released in the US on October 25th and in Europe on October 28th. hanDover continues this stripped down 'rock' sensibility with another solid collection of songs which adds further credence to Skinny Puppy as an iconic outfit within the industrial, electro and goth oeuvre. Although the album may not be frothing at the mouth with aggression or unsettling imagery, the dark melody here is infectious enough, led by the charismatic vocals and presence of Nivek Ogre. Ogre's multiple personalities shine through here in spades, proving once again how important this band has been for their genre's forward strides

Here is the track listing:::

1. ovirt

2. cullorblind

3. wavy

4. ashas

5. gambatte

6. icktums

7. point

8. brownstone

9. vyrisus

10. village

11. noisex

Funny they have a song called Noisex as there's also a brilliantly good rhythmic-noise artist called

Noisex

It's also funny they called a track "brownstone" because that had to do with the Ohgr online game, which I sorta won (hence the necklace he hand made for me, with the first draft of the lyrics from his latest album in them ).

About 2 or 3 "dancable" ones... and the rest was the delicious headfuck awesomeness that we have come to love.

Well, Phee, if any band is going to get me that excited, it surely will be my beloved Skinny Puppy. I am in love with their music and ideology.
