Pig (aka Raymond Watts, aka Nainz, ex-KMFDM) has some stuff out in Japan -- a bit like KMFDM but not trying to be accessible. _Sinsation_ is out on Nothing in the US, but I prefer _Wrecked_. The associated EP, _Prime Evil_ (I know, I know...) uses even more techno/d'n'b elements to good effect. My impression after hearing _Wrecked_ is nobody else needs to make another industrial-dance record again. It's a fine, fine album that also demonstrates why industrial-dance is past the point of diminishing returns. IDM-related footnote: The guitarist from Underworld (Karl Hyde?) contributes most of the guitar to Pig's out-of-print _The Swining_. --Mark
