a friend introduced his music to me while back. truly crazy stuff. but the whole "satanist neo-nazi" image is definitely just to push buttons. look beyond that and you have some of the best noise/industrial out there. if you see him live though WEAR HEARING PROTECTION if you dont want serious damage to occur. not even joking.

I guess it was inevitable with the revival of industrial in general that Boyd would get attention again, too.

And, of course, the question-can/should you look beyond the fascism? Boyd always seemed like such an asshole, and there's plenty of other music out there.

At first I had a friend tell me about this guy. I started reading about how he messes with locked grooves, adds holes to the disc to create multiple axis. It sounded pretty cool and interesting, then I got to the Nazi/Satanist stuff. It's hard to tell if he's "joking" or if he's serious about it, but if he's serious in no way would I support a Nazi who condones rape on his songs (a "parody" perhaps?). Either way, I think I'll just keep my distance...
