Dance industrial at its best

"Alright, I'm not gonna fall into the trap of comparing Pygmy Children to anyone else. Of course the music is similar to other industrial bands... that's what makes it "industrial". And if you like great, percussion driven, dance floor pounding, spinning around til your dizzy industrial, then get this album. It's on Cleo Records, so that tells you a lot about it right away. Late 80s, early 90s industrial (before the rave influences) was all very similar anyways, and who cares!?!? If its good, get it! And this is very, very good. It's like getting a best of album, almost every song is great, no skipping needed. If it'll make you feel better I'll tell you that I like Leaether Strip, early Wumpscut, early Funker Vogt, Babyland, late Haujobb, etc. I'm not comparing Pygmy Children to these bands (they just fit together nicely), but if you like these bands, you'll love Pygmy Children. Yeah, yeah, I know, everyone is copying everyone else; if you want original, listen to experimental noise. If you just want to rock out, or maybe dance a bit, check out this album."
