Skinny Puppy Artist Snapshot:

Vancouver's Skinny Puppy took the somewhat scattershot rage of industrial pioneers like Throbbing Gristle and gave it focus--exploring the endless catalogue of evils of which mankind is capable, all in lyrically graphic detail. Though not as commercially successful as the like-minded if somewhat more rock-oriented Ministry, Skinny Puppy never wavered from their extreme vision. After producing their savage brand of sonic assault for nearly a decade, the band disbanded in 1995 after the heroin overdose death of keyboardist Dwayne Goettel, but reformed in 2000. Skinny Puppy's THE GREATER WRONG OF THE RIGHT album/tour drew the ire of Republicans during the 2004 election for its musical disparagement of President George W. Bush.

Review

Spin (2/91) - "...Skinny Puppy's return to the bloodbath...The album repels toxicity; dark shadows lurk everywhere, just the way the band likes it."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.53) - "SP reached their creative peak with this dense, claustrophobic journey to hell of an album..."

Title Note

Skinny Puppy: N. Ogre, Cevin Key, D. Rudolph Goettel.

Additional personnel: Rave, Green Guy (guitar); Greg Reely (piano); Mr D. Pleven (bass).

TOO DARK PARK solidified Canadian trio Skinny Puppy's presence as a major figure on the American goth-industrial scene in 1990. Here, Skinny Puppy mines the same primal scream intensity as Nine Inch Nails, showing some influence from Ministry minus the superfluous grunge. Skinny Puppy is the purest exponent of the whole late '80s disco-industrial scene. Less cathartic and much more normal-sounding than Throbbing Gristle, Test Department, or early Einsturzende Neubauten, this brand of industrial lite was all the rage among disaffected suburban youth of the pre-NEVERMIND era, and TOO DARK PARK shows why. The songs have the anthemic quality of a classic heavy metal single, without the hooks, riffs, and choruses. The resulting claustrophobic overload owes much to the cult-classic ESP-Disk releases by the Godz, as well as to Cabaret Voltaire.
