-
- Quite agreed. Douglas P. (of Death In June) and Richard Butler (of the
- Psychedelic Furs) belong to different realms of music.
-
- As for other Death In June releases, I would heartily recommend "The
- Corn Years" and "But, What Ends When the Symbols Shatter?" These are
- two of Death In June's finest compilations of music (IMHO.) Check them
- out! "But, What Ends..." is much more acoustic than any other DIJ
- release, and might appeal to you if you're trying to play the guitar
- along the acoustic DIJ songs on "Nada." :-) If you like the "acoustic
- industrial" feel, I'd also recommend the band Sol Invictus which
- reportedly has an ex-member of Death In June in its lineup.
-
- I'm just getting into Current 93, but I can recommend "Dawn." It's a
- bit noisier than DIJ (and definitely the Psychedelic Furs!!!), but it
- still flows well from track to track. You should try posting this
- question to rec.music.industrial to get a more complete answer to your
- question on C93. If C93 appeals to you, you should also check out the
- band Nurse With Wound.
-
- Good luck!
