Combichrist 2011 North America Tour

CombiChrist at Respectables feat. Deadstar Assembly DefenzMechanizm and Star Killer

CombiChrist, voted "The Best Industrial Band to see Perform Live", by me, recently wrapped up the north america portion of their 2011 tour.

Frontman and songwriter Andy Laplegua’s maniacal and animated stage presence is well complimented by two percussionists, keys and guitar. Whereas most acts in this genre consist of two dudes behind laptops or children in costumes dancing about with unplugged instruments to backing tracks, Combichrist has Joey Letz from HANZEL UND GRETYL, Trevor from Imperative Reaction and Abby Nex who has been in Psyclone 9 and Genitorturers, and legendary keyboardist Z-marr. The energy that these seasoned artists produce when they take the stage is undeniably electrifying.

Let Your Ego Die, a Spooky Kids tribute

Daisy Berkowitz Spooky Kids Tribute

Back in the early 90′s, in the most loveably rocker dive in Miami, a group of degenerate weirdoes calling themselves “the Spooky Kids” played their first show. What started as a modern psychedelic freakshow would eventually turn into the commercial label whore and icon of the disenfranchised youth of america, Marilyn Manson, but this show wasn’t about the superstardom.

Titled “Let Your Ego Die”, the show celebrated the bands early years, when the songs were written by Brian Warner[Manson] and original Guitarist Scott ‘Daisy Berkowitz’ Putesky.

Jackie RansomAn Aussie playing a piece of glass though guitar FX pedals never sounded this discordant… Avant-garde Noisecore to Thrash Metal, It almost seemed as if they had a show for every band an average person would run from.
