Just a few hours before their show, I sat down with Frankie Nardiello, A.K.A. Groovie Mann, vocalist for My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult. It was almost 30 years since I had last seen the band perform. I caught them early on in their career and have been a fan ever since. Groovie is one of the nicest rock stars you're likely to ever meet. He always stays after the shows and visits with fans and signs items. Thrill Kill Kult are veterans of the industrial, electro-rock scene and have been incredibly influential on many other bands. The band was one of the lucky few to be a part of the now-legendary Wax Trax Records! The band released a new album this year entitled "In The House Of Strange Affairs". Groovie gave me the scoop on recording this album as well as his take on the music business, touring and so much more.

Now fourteen albums into their thirty five year career it’s certainly debatable how well Ministry have aged with time.  In 1989 there was no debate, The Mind is A Terrible Thing to Taste was a sledgehammer to the brain of every fan of heavy music.  Punks, metalheads, goths and Industrial kids united around their buzzsaw guitars, rapid fire drum machines and war movie samples.  It’s safe to say many (if not most) of those early fans have moved on and their copies of the album has spent decades gathering dust (yours truly included).  For this episode, we've pulled it out of storage to give it a critical spin to see how it holds up against 2019 ears.       RECOMMENDED LISTENING   Episode Recommendations   Revolting Cocks  Big Sexy Land https://open.spotify.com/album/2uk1BH7Dl6X880vOADBw5a?si=PvnMvKaVRjGiLHwHvi0KLg Beers, Steers & Queers https://open.spotify.com/album/6exJQPc4h7vvicCz8vztRv?si=OOp3Y5RHS_uFqc-hiKD3zg   1,000 Homo DJs https://open.spotify.com/album/59or2rVv97PQ4dS45ohNlQ?si=rwoPV8vjQwmWMDjn5JIN_A   Pailhead https://open.spotify.com/album/5H3cH7r2e1QFfh8ul2ui7j?si=pSaM5kiBSUSxFVAO2Dh92A   Lard The Power of Lard https://open.spotify.com/album/4c3GEruFdVwrC5jzcj9632?si=e-zFx_1zTTOotTOv6fMTWQ The Last Temptation of Reid  https://open.spotify.com/album/2rTILylL2lITqrlEWmXjx1?si=oCJJhXM7TpmLOc24OC9g-g   Movie Industrial Accident:  The Story of Wax Trax Records https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6181974/?ref_=nv_sr_5?ref_=nv_sr_5     What We’re Listening To   Propagandhi Victory Lap https://open.spotify.com/album/01lJjCxlvrddTRzIbtKHmP?si=7X-Kts5qQCmO1Sv6l2_vgg   Tool Undertow https://open.spotify.com/album/3Esn6LoXuWtLZNYq8FCzr0?si=hV1MNRD2TVamKgXtiybzTw   The Pioneers Long Shot https://open.spotify.com/album/3guaf19rofHUFSIGVBaWPQ?si=bsYPu8FOSdiix_eHrSd3_Q   huntsmanhill.com #huntsmanhill Spotify Playlist:  https://open.spotify.com/user/1298220429/playlist/4gy1wWwypkoFS2lUztvZ44?si=waSq07DBQlq3x9G1_nK0pg

On this special episode of Piecing It Together, host David Rosen and his parents Rich and Sunny talk about their thoughts on the Elton John biopic Rocketman during their car-ride home from the theater. Elton John has been a regular customer of our family's record shop Wax Trax Records for the last few years so he is a major part of our lives, and we were very excited for this movie. The post Rocketman – Initial Reactions (Special Episode) appeared first on Piecing It Together Podcast.

On this week's episode, the Senior Staff delve headfirst into the history and enduring legacy of one of the most iconic record labels of all time. Julia Nash, daughter of Wax Trax Records founder Jim Nash, talks about the passion and process behind her documentary film, "Industrial Accident: The Story Of Wax Trax Records".

Finitribe special with David Miller in conversation The band formed in Edinburgh in 1984 by Chris Connelly, John Vick, Andy McGregor, Philip Pinsky, David Miller and Simon McGlynn. Initially a post-punk guitar outfit, the band released a debut E.P. Curling and Stretching on their own Finiflex label in the summer of 1984, graduating to their first John Peel Session in 1985 before rethinking their whole approach in the mid 80s. Tired of the conventional drums, bass and guitar set up, they acquired a sampler and began experimenting with electronic music. The result was Let The Tribe Grow, an EP released on the Glasgow label Cathexis and featuring 'De Testimony', a seminal dance floor anthem for the original Balearic/Acid House generation. Subsequently, they signed to Chicago label Wax Trax and released two singles, "I Want More" (a cover of the Can song) and "Make it Internal", raising their profile in the States and resulting in extensive radio and club success. A long and arduous "toilet" tour of the UK in 1988 led to the departure of three members – including Connelly who relocated to the States and joined the Revolting Cocks and Ministry – and a parting of the ways with Wax Trax Records. This in turn resulted in a resurrection of the Finiflex label and a distribution deal with Fast Forward for a long-awaited debut album, Noise Lust and Fun. The band was now made up of Pinsky, Vick and Miller along with various contributions from Little Annie, Rosanne Erskine and Wilf Plum. A series of remix EP's proved their electronic and dance floor credentials and brought indie chart success. The band met and signed a long-term publishing deal with Andy Heath (director of Beggars Banquet and Momentum Publishing), allowing the band to grow and develop without the constant need for advances from record companies. After signing a new deal with One Little Indian the band with encouragement from label boss Derek Birkett ran into controversy almost immediately with the 'Animal Farm' EP. Subverting the nursery rhyme "Old MacDonald" for the purposes of berating the similarly titled hamburger outlet, Finitribe (as they were now known) offered up a flavour of the anti-consumerist stance prevalent on new album Grossing 10k (1989). The subsequent threat of legal action was not exactly helped by a "Fuck off McDonald's" poster and T-shirt campaign. The band continued to develop stronger links with the electronic music world for their next single and album. Andrew Weatherall produced and remixed the single "101" (1991) along with Graham Massey from 808 State. Justin Robertson then worked with the band to remix and produce the singles "Ace Love Deuce" and "Forevergreen" (1992). These singles all featured on the band's most critically and commercially successful album, An Unexpected Groovy Treat (1992), the last album they were to record for One Little Indian. The success of this album allowed the band to re launch their 'Finiflex' label and the in-house production team recorded and released many singles including those by Justin Robertson, State of Flux, Ege Bam Yasi and Sparks. A Finiflex Compilation album And Away They Go was released to critical acclaim in 1993. The band was redeveloping their studio complex in Leith during this period and coordinated all management, recording, press and merchandise from there. After leaving One Little Indian the band further developed their studio complex and looked for a new recording deal. With the assistance of Tom Watkins (Pet Shop Boys, East 17) the band negotiated a deal with Pete Tong at London/FFRR. This deal allowed for the completion of the state of the art recording studio in Leith and facilitated complete independence for the recording of their next album. For the writing and pre-production of the band's fourth album they relocated to a small crofting settlement called Sheigra. near Kinlochbervie in the north west of Scotland. In 1994 the band released the single "Brand New" and although a minor hit the relationship with London/FFRR was cooling. A further single "Love Above" and the album Sheigra were released in 1995. The band followed this with a tour with Sparks and then their own headlining tour of the UK. By early 1996 David Miller and Philip Pinsky split from John Vick, the former continuing with Finitribe and John Vick successfully continuing with the studio complex Finiflex. The slimmed down Finitribe, now operating from house built on the side of a volcano, started a new label U.G.T and released an LP by Acid House maverick Ege Bam Yasi. While looking for a new label and a new singer Finitribe went to Essex to work with former Prodigy collaborator Jason Byrne. The result was the EP Squelch and the meeting up with future producer Witchman(John Roome). For a short while the band hooked up with Chas Smash (Madness) as manager, this indirectly led to a meeting with Korda Marshall and a deal was struck with Infectious/ Mushroom Records(home of Garbage and Ash). Philip and David recruited a band and picked up some guitars and drums. The band's fifth album 'Sleazy Listening' was recorded in Edinburgh with John Roome (Witchman) producing. It featured Paul Haig, Little Annie, Niroshini Thambar, Chris Ross, John Roome and Katie Morrison. The album mixed electronica and live instrumentation and received critical acclaim. Melody Maker stating that, " If Finitribe had lived and worked in Bristol they would have won the Mercury Music prize by now". The album was launched with a sell out gig at The Shooting Gallery, Edinburgh with Davy Henderson's Nectarine No. 9. The band toured the UK with their most successful gigs for several years, headlining the ICA in London. They recorded the first ever John Peel live session and released three further singles for Infectious. This was the band's last album and tour. Their last gig was at a sell out Bath Moles Club in the summer of 1998. Other interests and priorities meant that Philip and David put Finitribe to one side . One more single was released 'Bored' (2000). In January 2014 the band reissued "De Testimony" on limited 12" vinyl and have plans to reissue further classics from their catalogue.

Leur amour pour la musique psychédélique et étrange les amène rapidement à ouvrir Wax Tracks, un nouveau magasin de disques qu’ils fondent en travaillant comme menuisiers et en vendant de la drogue. Après une visite à Londres, ils envisagent de faire du magasin de Denver un endroit où l’on ferait plus qu’acheter des disques, un endroit où trainer, où il se passe quelque chose. En 78, ils décident que l’isolement géographique de Denver les empêche de se plonger pour de bon dans l’énergie culturelle et musicale du punk et de la new wave. Ils déménagent alors à Chicago Leur boutique rebaptisée Wax Trax devient rapidement l’un des endroits les plus courus du pays où acheter du post-punk et de l’expérimental. Un lieu de prédilection de la contre culture de Chicago fait par et pour des passionnées. Le magasin étend ses activités en ajoutant label : Wax Trax ! Records. Les quartiers généraux du label se trouvent à l’arrière du magasin. Flesher et Nash connus pour leur comptabilité désinvolte et leurs légèretés quant aux licences ou aux droits sortent leur 1er disque en 79 « Lion Sleeps Tonight » de Brian Eno, un nouveau pressage totalement illégal. Très impliqué dans la scène de Chicago, ils aident alors certains des jeunes artistes qui fréquentaient le magasin comme Al Jourgensen de Ministry. Wax Trax ! finança notamment leur 1er single. Wax Trax négociera aussi des contrats avec des groupes européens comme Front242 parce qu’ils vendaient tellement d’imports qu’il était plus intéressant de leur assurer un nouveau pressage au USA que d’en payer le transport. Parmi les artistes ayant fait l’histoire du label en plus de ceux que l’on a présenté on peut cité bien évidemment Ministry mais aussi KMFDM, Pig, Meat Beat Manifesto, Front Line Assembly, Sister Machine Gun, Coil, Chris and Cosey, Laibach et bien d’autres. À la suite d'une grave crise financière, Wax Trax! est racheté en 92 par TVT Records, Nash et Flesher gardant le contrôle créatif sur le label. TVT continua d’utiliser le nom de Wax Trax ! pendant des années même après le décès en 95 de Jim Nash à la suite de complications de santé lié au SIDA. Wax Trax ! fut un label et un magasin culte. Une sorte de mecque de l’indus, un lieu de pèlerinage pour les fans, qui sortit la musique industrielle de l’underground pour la présenter au reste du monde. En 94 TVT a commercialisé Black Box – Wax Trax ! Records. Il s’agit d’une compilation de 3CD recensant les plus grands succès du label occultant Front242 pour des problèmes de contrats. Pour aller plus loin je conseille la lecture de la biographie d’Al Jourgensen : The Lost Gospels qui regorge d’anecdotes savoureuses notamment sur sa période chez Wax Trax !. Je conseille également le livre [Assimilate : Une histoire critique de la musique industrielle. Deux livres paru aux éditions Camion Blanc qui nous ont grandement inspirés pour préparer cette émission.

"I am a music composer and film lover from Las Vegas, NV. I've been composing music for 20 years and have scored dozens of films, had my music featured on TV and have won awards for my music videos. During the day I work with my family at our record store Wax Trax Records. I recently started the Piecing It Together podcast because of my love of films and because I wasn't already drowning in how busy I am on a day to day basis."

Christopher Hall and Walter Flakus of Stabbing Westward jump in the Mazda 3 for conversation before taking the stage at Metro to headline Cold Waves 2017 at Metro. This episode is lovingly powered by Boost Mobile. While I'm on the topic, pick up a phone at Boost and call a friend to let 'em know about this interview. It's awesome. Here's what we talked about: "We were not considered (the cool band in Chicago in the 90s)" Die Warzau's role in helping Stabbing Westward in the early days Christopher's lingering issues that need to be worked out on stage Cold Waves and the issue of depression as it relates to artists The importance of Wax Trax Records! What Ed Sheeran accomplished that Christopher Hall should have done instead Relationship advice: Stay broken up forever. The initial split: "The music industry was collapsing around us... and we did not like each other any more." The schism between Walter and Christopher toward the end of the band's first run The simple pleasures of blow jobs and IPA beer The tragedy that brought Christopher and Walter back together Is the Dreaming still a band? And why are they like Tones on Tail? Starting a new band is like selling blenders at Costco Christopher is a fan of the Mazda 3's interior Stabbing Westward's delayed gratification White Castle experience

Comment ça vous aimez l’indus? La musique électronique? Et le rock? Et la scène underground? Bon, pas de problème, ça tombe bien, moi aussi ! On avait parlé de ce moment trouble, une période qui me passionne, celle où l’émergence des nouvelles sonorités électroniques a créé des musiques hybrides, comme la naissance de l’EBM des Front 242, où la cristallisation 80s absolue des Revolting Cocks. Eh bien, dans le même univers, je vous propose d’entrer de plein pied dans une musique abrupte, mais qui ne surprendra pas les habitués des groupes précédemment cités, ou de Ministry ou KMFDM... Puisque le groupe qui nous intéresse aujourd’hui, hautement underground, doit être bien compris... Excessive Force ! Avec un nom comme ça, on résume déjà bien le programme : ici c’est bien de l’agression, sans rentrer dans les expérimentations indus (qui concerneront, elles, plutôt le continent et les dérives intellectuelles de labels comme Ant-Zen), ce groupe est bien ancré dans les USA et son histoire. Oui, précisément, à Chicago, au début des années 90. Chicago, forcément, c’est le coeur de la culture club, des musiques électroniques, d’une scène underground de l’indus qui se cherche et s’imagine au gré des coups de samples et vocodeur à cette époque. Autre facteur pour comprendre Excessive Force : c’est le side-project de Sasha Konietzo, leader de KMFDM (eh bah oui, rien que ça) et Buzz McCoy de My Life With The Thrill Kill Cult (autre groupe d’indus au nom pensé pour faire souffrir les gens). Ce project parallèle sera leur défouloir club, pensé sur le label où se retrouve tout le gratin de l’époque à Chicago : le mythique Wax Trax Records ! Ca commence à faire beaucoup de monde dans un endroit sacrément cool. Et inutile de dire, à ce stade, qu’on vous en avait même pas parlé, et que tout le monde a depuis très longtemps oublié cette comète des nuits de Chicago, si jamais on en a jamais vraiment parlé. Bon, alors en avant pour un nouvel épisode ! 

Jim and Greg look back at the legacy of the revered Chicago label Wax Trax! Records. They’re joined by influential industrial musicians Paul Barker and Chris Connelly. Later in the show, Jim and Greg review Beyonce's "4".
