New Skinny Puppy Album Out Soon

Skinny Puppy has been one of my favorite bands for the last 14 years. It's strange to look at it in those terms, considering the fact that I first heard of them when I started college. In other words, I'm starting to feel a little old.

Anyhow, I just found out that they have a new album coming out the end of this month.



If there is one thing that Puppy has done with as much passion as creating their own unique brand of music, it's their ability to bring various and powerful subjects ( animal cruelty, political injustice, etc ) to the forefront so that their fanbase can become active in their own ways. One great example of this was the concert DVD called Skinny Puppy - The Greater Wrong of the Right. It marked the release of the first LP that Puppy had completed since 1996's The Process. That album also marked the final collaboration that Key and Ogre would have with D.R. Gottel ( who died from a heroin overdose ).

If you've never listened to any Skinny Puppy, you're in for more suprises than you can handle. The new album should prove no different.
