Skinny Puppy Picture
Skinny Puppyis an influential industrialband, formed in 1982 by core members cEvin Key(Kevin Crompton) and Nivek Ogre ( ohGr) (Kevin Ogilvie) in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Inspired by the groundbreaking music of Kraftwerk, Cabaret Voltaire, Throbbing Gristleand others, Skinny Puppy experimented with electronic recording techniques and methods. Skinny Puppy composed multi-layered music generally using keyboards, synthesizers, found sounds, drum machines, live percussion, tape splices, and samplers. Whereas many contemporary remixes and re-edits of songs were created in order to make a song more suitable for dancing or different radio formats, Skinny Puppy approached remixing and re-editing as an artistic process of reinterpreting compositions, often using remixes to push their sound into styles of ambient, duband techno. Skinny Puppy's first two proper releases, Bitesand Remission, fall somewhere between the found-sound chaos of early Cabaret Voltaire and the abrasive, futuristic synthpop of the Units or Crash Course in Science.

Deep Down Trauma Hounds Lyrics

Skinny Puppy

injured plea crushed destiny deep down
trauma hounds run to corrode integrity whatever matters and it
would they fail to see they make believe reality helpless deaths
ignored to be judged as juvenile head caves in growing pains no time
remains for fantasy tyrrany exists shrink beneath the ingrown thorns
forced to accept pledge allegiance to a flag tested to forget you must
resist they want you dead feels emptyness eternity keeps swallowing
digested benefactors whose silence deafens anything all of whom
decease and miss to pierce a point objects and lessons to realize it's not
the way what's the point of giving up leaving won't change anything
political resentment to push away all growth withing puzzles me offers
soul to nothing the message screams it's purity that those with no rights
display the right to have no life do have respect they must accept a
world commiting suicide
