The Threshold HouseBoy's Choir is playing on Sunday, but I shant go. I seen Focus the other week on a night that I was supposed to be spending with Mrs. ZAAL and I'm not doing that again.
No, she wont appreciate all the gory footage of self mutilation. I have recurring dreams about seeing Throbbing Gristle play and this is the nearest that I'll come, but I shant go. Could I even go see TG if they did come? What if Genesis flashes his tits? We're a bit on the right, she wouldn't even want to look at him.
Anywhoo, we all know the journalistic concept behind Industrial music. It's all about the urban decay in our post-modern societies. Very often, Fascism is used as an ironic tool of critique, without any though given to the validity of such a system.
In any case, I've noticed a few things.....
Mindless Self Indulgence. That becomes MSI. MSI is shorthand for Movimento Sociale Italiano - the direct succesor to Mussolini's PNF.
VNV Nation. VNV was the Vlaamsch Nationaal Verbond - Belgian Fascists.
D.A.F. is, of course, Deutsche Arbeitsfront (DAF). (PS. check out how UBER the flag for the DAF was)
Cabaret Voltaire. CV was the Cartellverband der katholischen deutschen Studentenverbindungen (CV). Originally a Catholic based umbrella orginisation of Catholic male student fraternities, it fell under control of the NSDAP.
David Bowie done an Industrial record. DB = Deutsche Bank. They introduced Bayer to the German stock market. Bayer manufactured Zycklon B. The bank was very complicit with the NSDAP, loaned money for building concentration camps, etc.
Fad Gadget = FG = Fallschirmjäger = Nazi Paratroopers
Decoded Feedback=DF=Dansk Folkeparti (often accused of being Nazis, they are like a Danish BNP)
I could go on forever. Sadly, I couldn't come up with one for Test Dept. =(
