That must be "I Sit On Acid".  The female chant says "Darling come here,
fuck me up the ..." and then the music starts before she can say "rear".
You can probably find this on any number of techno compilations or on their
recent album called "Lust" (distributed in the USA by Caroline).

Nope. *Some* of the songs (the _Piscatorial_ material on the CD release)
are older, and have been bunged on as bonus tracks, but _Cuisine_ itself is
a fairly consistent whole. Personally, I liked the album. S'not my absolute
numero uno favourite SH album, but it still gets listened to regularly.

Although (contrary to another posting) Severed Heads haven't split (well,
disbanded) their current status seems to be Indeterminate. Tom's keeping
himself busy with a load of work, but just what will come out as being by
SH, what'll be Coklacoma, and what'll be coming out under Other Names seems
pretty vague. UK/European SH fans should look out soonish for a new video
compilation from Ikon, which hopefully will bring the UK/Europe video
releases up to date.

My version of "broken came as only one normal sized CD. Tracks 1-6 were the

was 99.  Did everyone else get 2 different CD's with "broken'?

Broken comes in a Digipak. The imports come with both CD-5 and CD-3 (I got

single CD-5 I am told. CV's (11 Centre Place, Melbourne) have broken
going for $30. The local release will be $26.95 I expect. Its a bit rough
paying full price for an EP, but there marketing for you...

You can rent a DAT machine for a day for a lot less than you can rent studio

No.  I can't imagine it being a good label for anyone.  They consistently delay
releases for months, sometimes for more than a year.  Wax Trax is currently in
a very bad financial state, which is why they hardly release anything anymore
(along with the fact that all their bigger artists have left them).

I think Wax Trax wants bands that perform live and that will tour.

I have been waiting since 1988 for the "forthcoming" _Steelworks_ album.
It's not as good as I had hoped, but I do like it fully.  But B20's best
stuff was in the late 80's, the first singles just blast away this Bog and
Carpe Diem ( originally recorded with Umo Detic ) stuff.  Just my opinion.

The point is not whether Abba is more musically talented than Front 242,
but whether they are more enjoyable. And any pseudo-intellectual idiot can
tell you that "proof" is impossible; it's a matter of taste, and I think your
taste is bad in liking Abba and good for disliking Front 242...but that's just

most of the vocals on the album ARE like death metal, 
grunge industrial.....
maybe
but the most of theguitar is too ambient(with emphasis on the dissonance,

of Ministry and such)
