When the normal folk listens to Severed Heads the reaction is always (Huh, what the hell is this?). They can sound like just plain noise, then move to heavenly melodies that blend together like creamy butter. Call it what you will but the master mind behind the Australian electronic band Severed Heads is Tom Ellard. I happened to meet Tom back in 1990 in a small industrial dance club in New Brunswick, NJ when the Severed Heads were touring the states. The show was awesome and I was extreemly delighted to actually hang out and talk with Tom for a while before he went on stage. Here is an atmospheric song by Severed Heads called Dressed in Air off their 1987 album Bad Mood Guy.

When people think of Human League they talk about hit songs such as “Don’t You Want Me”, “(Keep Feeling) Fascination”, “Mirror Man” and “Human” but fail to realize they were one of the best darkest Electronic bands ever. Check out this early track from 1979 “Path of Least Resistance“.

Radiohead

All I have to say is that Radiohead is incredibly smooth, melodic and that this musical piece of art is somewhat catchy but yet still alternative. Don’t miss this one!

The very popular VNV-NATION remix version of Kathy’s Song by Apop gets dance floors moving all over the world. We’ll have more Apoptygma Berzerk videos and music reviews coming soon.
