Reviews
Killing Joke, “MMXII”
Their fourth album since the turn of the millennium (*wink*), MMXII finds the mighty Killing Joke in fine form and allowing themselves some introspective moments.
Sabes, “Diesel Charm”
Hearkening back to classic 90s power noise, Sabes offers some crunchy thrills but runs on a half-empty tank.
Motor, “Man Made Machine”
The fourth album from the techno-electro duo relies heavily on vocals for the first time, and features guest spots from Martin Gore, Douglas McCarthy and Gary Numan.
End to End: :Wumpscut:, “DJ Dwarf XII”
We give you the blow by blow of the latest entry in :Wumpscut:’s long running remix series.
K-Bereit, “Positiv Sound/Negativ Beat”

Guilt Trip, “Feed The Fire”
The Swedish duo’s new record of electro-industrial and EBM benefits from their years in the trenches of self-releases, and should make a good first impression.
Carter Tutti Void, “Transverse”
This live recording from Mute’s Short Circuit festival captures a remarkable performance from Chris & Cosey and Factory’s Floor’s Nik Void.

The science fiction-minded electro supergroup reconvenes for some club mixes from last year’s Y2112Y.
The Unquiet Grave: Wandering By Mistake
The Unquiet Grave is back with a survey of one of goth rock’s longest running but unmentioned trends: songs about girls.
Human Decay, “Credit to Humanity”
The first LP from Human Decay in some time showcases a looser, groovier sound.
T.W.A.T., “Blood, Sweat and Teargas”
Sweden’s T.W.A.T. fuse Oi! Punk and EBM on their 2011 debut, a combination less unusual than you might think.
