Strop (Remaster Rerelease)

by Battery 9

supported by

skoldzer This band shaped me in my Industrial beginnings in the 90’s. I will always love Battery 9 Favorite track: Kiss The Machine.

morkhans What more can one say about the seminal album that propelled Battery 9 into the limelight? Kiss the Machine, was the go-to dance floor filler, but this album features a great many excellent tracks that showcase frontman Paul Riekerts' wizardry with clever lyrics and grinding beats. Favorite track: Twyfelaar.

about

Battery9’s second album, originally released in 1996, the one that saw the “Industrial” outfit break through to a bigger audience, with daytime airplay and charting on national and campus radio stations. Now remastered for your aural pleasure.

Kurt Shoemaker:
At times, Strop sounds right out a futuristic film noir world like ‘Blade Runner’, or some other film based on Philip K. Dick’s works. Tape loops, machine sounds, guitar, and percussion of hitting various objects, usually big metal things, sound effects, and Paul make up the Battery 9 sound. The CD closes with a brief and driving tune, full of B9 swagger and justified musical arrogance… but stick around for the hidden track.
