   Skinny Puppy, "Assimilate" from the album "Bites": https://song.link/us/i/306559424 #NowPlaying #FediPlay

   Lock me up, lock me up, rot and assimilate.

   When I fell in love with industrial-industrial.

     @mwl That was my first seriously "alt" album, and it sticks with me.

     Totally rocks.

     I'm partial to the live version on Ain't It Dead Yet.

     @mwl KMFDM and Ministry kicked that into overdrive. I remember the first time I heard normies blasting “Thieves”.

     Great album!

     I freely admit, I'm something of a 70s industrial purist: TG, Monte Cazazza, etc. But SP did an amazing job of taking primordial industrial and making it approachable by regular folks.

     The credit for an invention goes to the person who first explains it well enough that nobody else needs to invent it. And, well, no matter how brilliant SPK's "Leichenschrei" is, you just can't hand that to normal people and tell them to listen. It won't work.

     @mwl (Although those normies might’ve been my own friends who were otherwise listening to Metallica, but though Ministry had the right spirit.)
