I do think that alot of people who used to be into industrial kinda moved on into other things. There still is some good industrial being made but I think its become more underground since Wax Trax went into hybernation. Beyond Puppy and Haujjob, some other killer industrial acts to check out are: Lassigue Bendthaus, THD, Informatik, and Struktur ROB

What's the deal with the tracks on the US release of FSoL's Dead Cities? There are 15 tracks listed (Or so it seems) - and only 13 are apparent - with a sort of 'hidden' track at the end of 13 after a 30 second or so delay - Their 'progressive' a.k.a. unintelligible typography makes the chronology of the tracks hard to discern. I can't tell which tracks are supposed to be combined etc. This might be 'the point' but as usual, this is a damned stupid point to make - If they are going to bother with naming the tracks at least they should print their covers so that the owners of the CDs can tell which are which. Otherwise why not just skip the titles altogether? But I digress... I just wanna figure oput which tracks are which - graphic design debates can wait till later.

Hmm... somebody else posted something like what you have above when it first came out. Which got me thinking... maybe there are 15 tracks with 2 of them being outro's attached to the proper song. Tracks 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 (which on my pc cd playing program actually shows up -1:59 before going straight to track 12) do fit this criteria? Of course if this is correct in anyway it can only be 2 of the tracks... the question being which two?? Oh well.. Regards, John
