Just in today...June 25....some info on what our friend Nivek Ogre's doing at the moment.
From the latest issue of Alternative Press
"Former Skinny Puppy frontman Ogre has been keeping busy. Besides creating electronic soundscapes for his own enjoyment at home, he's teaming up with Martin Atkins for a project dubbed Ritalin. "It's sort of like a postcard," says the singer. "I told Martin we should try to sound as
little like ourselves as possible, just rhythm and voice." Ogre mentions
that the concept would be similar to the Pigface track "insemination" from
the album Fook.
WELT, Ogre's long-running project with Mark Walk (Ruby) has an album completed for American Recordings that was shelved after the label's absorption into Warner Bros. "It's been a fuckin' nightmare," Ogre says of his travails in the music business. "I came to the point where I wondered
if [music] was worth doing. You question everything. There are certain
elements of my persona then which I don't want to project now, because
they're being exploited by people like Marilyn Manson. So if I come out
and do something similar to the past, is everybody going to think I'm a
Manson clone? I'm just being patient and letting things run their course."
Now released from the Amerikkkan contract, Ogre and Walk will be recording
this summer, as well as fielding offers from record labels. Fans will also
be able to hear Ogre on upcoming records by KMFDM and Pigface.
