The second of my recently promised interviews is another long-overdue one, really: with Scott Fox of Canadian tribal-industrial behemoth iVardensphere.

/Talk Show Host/072/Terminal
A couple of months ago, I recorded two lengthy interviews with new artists that I wanted to talk about. Then, we got caught up in work and a house move, and they had to sit on the backburner for a bit. But now we’re successfully moved, and I’ve had a spare evening to sit down, […]
/Talk Show Host/070/Imperative Reaction
The beginning of 2021 sees a couple of notable North American industrial artists releasing new albums on the same day. Front Line Assembly return with Mechanical Soul, but perhaps even more interestingly, there is also the return of a band that has barely released any music in the past decade.

In this period of enforced downtime – I last saw a gig on 05-Mar (Marika Hackman), and frankly who knows when I’m next going to get to go to one – I’m using the time to catch up on various amounts of writing for this site, and also get on with trying to make some […]

/Talk Show Host/054/Numb
There are occasions where a long-dormant artist resurfaces that genuinely surprise. Many bands split up, and in these nostalgic times, you can almost set your watch to them reforming at some point – but Numb is different. Despite being such an important project from their releases back in the nineties, Don Gordon clearly appeared to […]
But Listen: 159: Vancouver Industrial
In one of those weird quirks that seem to happen more often than they should, two industrial bands from Vancouver (one featuring a previous member of the other) are releasing new albums within a couple of weeks of each other. One is decades into it’s career – and frankly don’t really have anything left to […]
Welcome to the Future: 059: Events, gigs and new release round-up 19-October 2018
Another Friday, another round-up. As always this is a look at upcoming releases, relevant music news and upcoming events and gigs worth spending some of your time at. It is by no means an exhaustive list, and I’m always on the lookout for more to include.
Talk Show Host: 042: Cesium_137
As we accelerate into 2018, it is time to resume my interview series. The first one of this year talks to an act who are returning after a few years away, and resuming operations after an unexpected tragedy.
Talk Show Host: 037: FIRES
As well as talking to the legends of our wider industrial scene (see yesterday’s interview with Bill Leeb, for example, among others), I’m also keen on hearing the voices of new and younger artists. As Alex Reed of Seeming noted the other week, we can’t always look at the past.
