Description from the label:

"Christopher J. Connelly and Jason C. Novak bridge the gap between waxtrax! era industrial and the future sounds of mass corruption.

THE SOUND: huge air-craft hangar size mechanized rhythms and bone-crushing, limb-severing noises that stretch from 2014 all the way back to 1985, long, endurance testing, panic-attack hit songs that you can drive around at night to, sweating dry-ice and smoking your chemical-weapon blunts.

THE WORDS: shockingly infantile, irreverent & irrelevant, riot inciting, anger inducing, anti-social, unashamedly un-p.c. , paranoid, narcissistic bullshit, barked and howled by someone who you think would have learned his fucking lesson by now.

THE PERPS: COCKSURE-the bastard that once was “REVCO” deformed and dug up, re-animated and re-branded by CHRIS CONNELLY and JASON NOVAK .”Unfinished bizness” mutters Chris under his breath with a chuckle, then politely folding his arms and crossing his legs he whispers softly: “We’ll show these pussy-ass motherfuckers how it’s really done” adding with a serene smile “we’ll tell these ageing dinosaur fuckwads where to stick their dicks”

THE CHARGES: car jacking, drug dealing, pyromania (adoration of), credit card fraud, brawling, shoplifting & petty theft, chronic serial infidelity, slutism, weapon smuggling, online porn addiction, drinking binges, coke binges, speed binges, binge binges, auto theft, porn skyping, messianic behavior, trans gender hookers (pathetic attempts to “engage” with) hookers (pathetic attempts to “engage” with), solvent abuse, and botched plastic surgery (laughing at the expense of).

THE OUTCRY: “these people are despicable, truly society’s day-old used q-tips, we thought we were DONE with this childish self obsessed crap and we were safely tucked away in middle age doing respectable soundtracks or appearing in the reality shows of the poorly-tatooed: but NO! these HALFWITS are here to PICK us up by the scruffs of our necks and drop us like used condoms on the dancefloor .SHUT DOWN THE CLUBS!! RUN THAT D.J. OUT OF TOWN & HURRY BACK TO YOUR SAFE POP/PUNK PANIC ROOM!"

??? I thought connelly said this would be out in june? Or is that an ep or another single?

3

The 12" single on Wax Trax! came out this month, I think.

4

On Saturday, in fact. TKO Mindfuck single. And it’s fantastic.

The title track features Richard 23 and has a real “You Often Forget” back and forth singing groove.

I can’t wait for the full release.

5

Im surprised connelly wasnt here pimpin the release. I honestly wasnt keeping up with it cause i thought for sure we’d get a commercial for it. Now im behind damn it. [mad]

6

I think you’ll dig it Grmp. You flipped over the first one, this one brought a smile to my face as soon as it started playing.

It’s like old school, but updated. And as close to a proper Revolting Cocks album as we’re likely to get.

Prude was going to be self-released and out in July, but then Metropolis made Jared a great offer, so he pushed off the release to August to go through them. Maybe something similar happened here. Perhaps Metropolis is seeing the wisdom in propping up some seasoned talent who still have some great things coming out.

8

I was just about to but someone beat me to the punch (but thanks) the single came out saturday and cocksure played in chicago

We are going to be playing some selekt dates around the country and abroad…

It’s time for a reckoning

What do you mean “time for a reckoning”?

You do realise only a handful of people out there even know about this. So, who is being “reckoned” with? What scores if any are being settled? It makes no sense. It’s not as if you are getting revenge on somebody by releasing a puny cd to a small hardy group of followers.

Or are you?

The TKO Mindfuck single is awesome, love the sound, very befitting of the Wax Trax label. My vinyl should be showing up this week. You can stream the whole single on Bandcamp. Great stuff from Connelly and Novak so far.

Will the 12" be available at any old record store, or only from Wax Trax!?

Oh yeah i cant wait. I’m a tad disapoonted cause i thought it was going to be the whole album but ill take some new toons regardless.
Yeah, i was pretty stoked on KFK goddamn song was dangerously catchy. Certainly looking forward to this.
Btw, connelly, if you do end up printing baby onesies with “boom boom
surprise” i demand a 0.05% cut on total sales!! (10% if you print it across the butt) [sly]
My son still says that from time to time out of no where. [:)]
Hope one of yer select dates is so cal

I dunno man. They are booked to play in NYC with Front 242 this September and it’s getting crazy hyped. People recognize Connelly / Novak and are interested to hear this incarnation of music. Metropolis just picked up the release and, as someone mentioned before, they seem to be making this release a sort of centerpiece for the next few months.

Have you heard the new material? It may not be everyone’s thing, but it’s music to my ears. I’ve been DJ’ing in the NYC industrial/goth club scene for almost 10 years now. The new music out there is shit! It’s been shit for a WHILE now. Good releases are so few and far between. The modern scene seems to lack a certain X factor that was present in old releases - particularly the lyrics. Most of the new stuff has devolved into misogynistic bullshit and lacks any real substance. Thankfully there is some pushback now… See the vid below to get up to speed…

Cocksure may not go on to mass market appeal (why would it?), but it seems to be planting a flag in our small scene/subculture and saying “this is how it should be done.”

my 2 cents.

My TKO Mindfuck limited white vinyl arrived today, pics:

No vinyl pic, haven’t opened it yet! Very cool to see the Wax Trax logo on the back of a record again.

Extra goodies: postcards for 242, Cold Waves III, WT Documentary, stickers for WT, Pailhead, and Cyberaktif.
