KMFDM were another of the 80's Industrial pioneers that I grew up on when I was getting into EBM/Industrial in my teens. I'd never had the chance to see them live before but they were in the UK touring in support of their new "Symbols" album that had been released the previous month. Vitro, the opening … Continue reading GIG 352: KMFDM / PIG / Vitro – Shepherds Bush Empire, 24th October 1997

GIG 171: Nine Inch Nails / PIG / Treponem Pal – The Forum, 26th May 1994
Fresh from having finished playtesting Wraith: The Oblivion at 3am the previous night (or much earlier in the day more technically I guess) and having worked 9.30 to 6pm at Leisure Games I was back in Kentish Town to see Nine Inch Nails on the last night of their three night stint at The Forum. … Continue reading GIG 171: Nine Inch Nails / PIG / Treponem Pal – The Forum, 26th May 1994
GIG 170: Nine Inch Nails / PIG / Treponem Pal – The Forum, 24th May 1994
I'd been wanting to see Nine Inch Nails for a few years, having been blown away by their debut 'Pretty Hate Machine' and superb follow-up 'Downward Spiral' albums - not to mention the Broken & Fixed EPs.

GIG 153: Die Krupps / PIG – The Underworld, 25th February 1994
Amazingly this seems to be my first gig at The Underworld, the Camden music venue underneath The World's End Pub. I really thought it would have appeared a lot earlier than at GIG 153, but apparently not. It was a Friday night and I was in Camden to see another of the bands that I … Continue reading GIG 153: Die Krupps / PIG – The Underworld, 25th February 1994
GIG 135: Judda / PIG / Foreheads in a Fishtank / Sow – Marquee, 24th October 1993
This was the third time I saw Judda live, and the first time with them headlining their own show. Sow, the first band on, where pretty good - certainly a lot better than Foreheads in a Fishtank whom I really didn't like. The main support came in the form of PIG, which was my first … Continue reading GIG 135: Judda / PIG / Foreheads in a Fishtank / Sow – Marquee, 24th October 1993
