Love these guys. First saw them on the discovery channel probably 20+ years ago when i was a kid. Then rediscovered them in my early teens reading the Industrial Culture Handbook. Mark Pauline seemed at the time (to my uncultured 13 year old mind) like the only one really doing “industrial” art. Compared to TG, Non, Cazazza, etc. whose noise/performance art didn’t connect as directly/viscerally as giant junkbots selfdestructing and destroying eachother.

Hmm, the animatronic chicken reminds me of Eraserhead.

Just look at the screaming reanimated chicken. Just look at it.

This is too bizarre to not have any comments about it.

“Under the Big Black Sun” is also the title of a record by X, a band active in the late 70′s to the early 90′s, unless they’re still flogging it.
Any relation or cross pollination or ripping off going on, or coincidence?
I totally loved that band and their energy, but sometimes squirmed at their pretty shallow and solipsistic politics.
