Very low turnout, but that didn't stop IoC from putting on a fucking great show. Great energy, very positive vibe. Try to catch them if they're coming to your area.

More photos (including the openers, Absence of Faith from Louisville)
I took these with my new Sony DSCW1. The raw images are 5.1MP, so if you want a higher-res version of something, let me know.
Heres links to 2 other shows photos. Great live band indeed.

good shots absence of faith kicks ass
I wish their sound had been better. The mix just did *not* suit their style at all. But IoC was REALLY cool to them, even dedicated a song to them for coming "all the way from Louisville" (sorta ironic considering how far IoC came, but it was still cool).Quote:

Here's a hint to bands: put your fucking email address on your web site, even if it is "coming soon."
;)
i dont have any off hand but im from louisville and i know some people that might so i can try to find out
Damn ..Icon of Coil..what an awesome band....we dont get good shows like that here....*pouts*
Combichrist and Funker Vogt just played in Orlando 2 weeks ago.
Funker Vogt - and I missed it...I didn't even hear of it...either I work entirely TOO much or the advertising, needed some work.Quote:

I would classify them as Neo Goth or Goth Synth. They do a lot of remixes with today's great bands. I am sure though, there is a proper classification.Quote:

Features artists such as:

Zeromancer
Slick idiot

Lots of awesome bands...and actually a excellent compillation cd.
Man, is Cleo still around? I remember when they were the badasses in the industrial scene back in 94 or so.
I had no idea Cleopatra records worked with Metropolis at all. I didnt know they were still around either.Quote:

Not many other options in the area -- even Indy, which is only an hour away, doesn't really have many gothy/fetishy shops (at least ones I know about).
Yes..they carry alot of good comps at HT..also Borders carries the Projekt Label..lots of great comps on that one too...featuring Voltaire, Unto Ashes, Miranda Sex Garden, Blue tape and loads of other great artists..If you like these bands, and ever have some free time, you may enjoy my live internet radio show weekdays from 8pm to midnight on kinkyradio.com. I also play some great indoe bands i promote like Spanking Machine, 23 Extacy and LunarClick! If you know of any good indie bands who would like free promotion, feel free to let me know..*winx*
