Angelspit: Some of Australia's best industrial

Angelspit is an industrial/electro duo from Sydney, Australia. They were formed in 2004 by DestroyX and ZooG. Angelspit’s official website describes them as “[a] riot grrl with a vocoder and a cyberpunk with a distortion pedal. [Their sound is] thick and rich with burning analogue synths and contempt, driven by beats like shards of metal and glossy with pvc and sweat.” Their music is loud, crunchy, distorted, and makes you want to move to the beat.

In addition to their unique sound, Angelspit’s lyrics make this band one to listen to. They talk about “apathy and a society fixated with consumerism.” They talk about chaos and not conforming. Every single song they produce sends a message. And it’s a powerful one. In one of my favourite songs, DestroyX sings “televised mass poison/spitting at the screen/keep the masses deluded with fabricated dreams” That says a lot about how the band views mass media.

Their manifesto echoes their lyrics. They encourage everyone to CREATE, THINK, CHANGE.

Angelspit is by far one of my favourite bands. I recommend you check them out. You won’t be disappointed.
