What I've heard of Super Collider is excellent - getting the album soon, and saw
a video on Alchemy on SBS-TV (Australia) the other night that was _fantastic_.

Just thought I'd mention that for fucked up electronica with vocals, Australian
band Snog (David Thrussel, also of Soma and Black Lung, and others) are pretty
fantastic. Glitchy breaky stuff, drum'n'bassy sometimes... with strangely
intoned extremely-cynical vocals by Thrussel.
OK, so not perhaps "listenable" vocals - not commercial radio fare by a long
shot! But still.

Their latest album, "Third Mall from the Sun" is their best. All the singles
contain multiple remixes and versions - the Atom Heart remixes of "The Ballad"
are awesome, some of the best digital-cut-up stuff he's done.
Peter.
