DSD's Vaguely Topical Videos No.4
Saturday, September 6, 2008 at 08:53PM As the Palin bounce has brought the GOP and the Dems neck and neck post-convention as David points out below, I thought this dirty industrial tune from Essex boys Nitzer Ebb would be an appropriate choice to share. 'Getting Closer' was the very first NE song I heard back in their early nineties heyday, and I was instantly hooked on their brand of very British hard electronica. This is a live performance from last year, and it appears that a) they have lost none of the energy I remember them having live and b) their dress sense has gotten even worse...

DSD -
You're a sound fella, but you're into some odd music. Why did I start thinking of camp neo-Nazis seeing that?
PM...
Just my sentiments too! All those shaven heads and black attire was but a goose-step away from.....?
Appalling.
My ears are bleeding, DSD. ;-o
How about some system of a down?
Like I said, their dress sense hasn't improved. Camp neo-nazi does pretty much cover the dreadful look. NE are actually fairly leftist in nature, they did songs like 'Blood Money' attacking religious fundies in the US for example.
Daphne, I can't stand System of a Down. I am quite happy to listen to bands that jar hugely with my politics (Vid No.3 being Devo for example, a band I disagree with politically about just about everything) but for some reason when metal bands play politics it really really hacks me off. No idea why.
