Summary: Comments of interest to fans of Einsturzende Neubauten

As an ardent fan of Einsturzende, it bereaves me to here they were on
the east coast and did not play here in southern California, as they did
last year (definitely my concert of the year). Serious industrial rock
fans should be alerted to the film "Dekoder", which stars F.M. Einheit
(one of the buzzsaw players in Einsturzende), as well as Christiane
Fellenshur (the reformed junkie on whose life the film Christiane F. was
based). Genesis P. Orridge and William S. Burroughs have bit parts. The
film has been released in Germany, and the filmmaker is currently trying
to arrange distribution in the US. I saw a poor quality VHS copy with
abyssmal subtitling, but even this could not detract from its
brilliance. There will probably be a soundtrack album out soon
(imported, of course), and this should be good mood music for those
nights when you feel like playing with the high voltage coils in the
back of the TV.
One other thing to watch for is an EP from a group called the
Abasydarians (spelling is approximate). Etherial, but gloomy
none-the-less.
