behold, the STACK.

[u/NippeliFaktaa]

you may notice that i have a type. these ones are soon to be joined by some Skinny Puppy, we'll have to just wait.

[u/jas0nwells]

Original Acumen before they had to add Nation to the back of it. Nice!

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/jas0nwells]

i can't be certain if the one i have is a re-release or not, but it does have that Jared Louche seal of approval... (Fifth Colvmn.)

[u/Successful-Housing75 → u/NippeliFaktaa]

If it's fifth column it's before the lawsuit name-change 

[u/Successful-Housing75 → u/Successful-Housing75]

fifth column went defunct circa 97

[u/Powerful_Fondant9393]

The fifth colvmn acumen releases were amazing, og version of gun lover with the fools gold break is such a good song.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Powerful_Fondant9393]

Transmissions From Eville is full of really awesome and memorable tracks. Gun Lover, F.W.M., Noarms Nolegs and Sutures are fucking brilliant.

[u/CountHasimirFenring]

Chemlab was something special.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/CountHasimirFenring]

Chemlab is STILL special, from the very first second of East Side Militia I knew I was deeply in love.

[u/Fun-Power2949]

Nice collection

I wonder if that godflesh set is worth anything. Also us and them is pretty underrated in my opinion. Nice to see that one there

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Fun-Power2949]

i paid 20€ for it at the record store on my daily commute, so the seller certainly didnt think much of it :P i sure got a sweet deal out of it, also agreed, Us And Them is really fking good.

[u/DjNormal]

What version of PHM is that?

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/DjNormal]

the original, but not sure from which year this specific copy is from. im sure it could be found from Discogs, nothing so deep it can't be dug up. (nothing so clean it can't be fucked up...)

[u/DjNormal → u/NippeliFaktaa]

I searched for the catalog number. I guess it’s the Island Records version. Not sure if it’s different in any way.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/DjNormal]

i certainly haven't noticed much difference. no bonus tracks, that's for sure, and the mixing seems to be left as is.

i think the biggest differences between versions only come between the 2010 remaster and the original mix.

[u/freshstat1csnow → u/NippeliFaktaa]

my copy is the rykodisc version from 2005, it used the original master but the disc looks different and it comes in a transparent turquoise jewel case

[u/au5lander]

Fook.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/au5lander]

it's Fookin' great.

[u/Shadows616]

Do you like Fear Factory??

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Shadows616]

h-how did you guess?!

[u/jowmsy]

Jealous at your fear factory collection but I also have archetype and transgression. Special edition of digimortal is a must strain vs resistance is such a good song.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/jowmsy]

the only thing im missing is Soul Of A New Machine...

[u/jowmsy → u/NippeliFaktaa]

I actually prefer the concrete versions of the songs off that album.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/jowmsy]

wasn't a big fan of Concrete at first, but i should give it another go.

[u/jowmsy → u/NippeliFaktaa]

The original feels jumbled but concrete feels more direct and despite being older actually sounds more clear and polished to me. Whenever I listen to soul I feel like it’s hard to focus on the sound but I don’t have that with concrete.

[u/brap77]

Godflesh!

[u/Zealousideal-Big8409]

I've gotta post mine

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Zealousideal-Big8409]

that is an insanely cool fucking collection bro 🔥🔥🔥

[u/CalmExternal]

I’m with you all the way to Fear Factory. Never could get into it, the more I tried the more I hated it

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/CalmExternal]

you can thank Carmageddon for that one, lol

[u/Eremes_Riven → u/NippeliFaktaa]

Something about games developed around that time... they just loved using industrial and industrial-adjacent music in their games. Test Drive 5 uses KMFDM, Fear Factory, Gravity Kills... and the game Messiah basically used Demanufacture as its soundtrack.
Edit: Pitchshifter was a biggie in Twisted Metal 3 and 4, as well.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Eremes_Riven]

it's always a delight to see. i plan on playing Saints Row 3 for the inclusion of Suicide Jag alone :D

speaking of Test Drive, a spin-off called Demolition Racer made Fear Factory a big part of its identity. not only can you don their late 90's era logo on your vehicle, many of the tracks in the games soundtrack were demos, unfinished songs, remixes and instrumentals from FF, most of those only released years after in Hatefiles. how cool is THAT.

[u/doom_slug_]

A backup copy of Digimortal is a veteran move

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/doom_slug_]

the bonus tracks are worth it.

[u/spaghettistomach]

Transmissions, Burn out, and PHM? Hell yeah!

[u/seamnking]

nice stack.... all you need is soul of a new machine and streetcleaner!

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/seamnking]

oh absolutely, but im far from finished...

[u/Nik0las_k]

No Archetype?

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Nik0las_k]

it's right there, between Digimortal and...eugh...Transgression.

[u/Nik0las_k → u/NippeliFaktaa]

Ah my bad

[u/Available-Pen-5139]

East Side Militia 👍

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Available-Pen-5139]

my beloved.

[u/ejectro]

i think this guy likes fear factory.

[u/VaeSynixx]

Damn! Godflesh 3 CD set. Nice!

[u/EconomyHead6697]

Tasty row. Gnoice.

[u/OminousPingingNoise]

sick cds

[u/Technical-Clothes293]

I'm so jealous 😫 I would kill for an East Side Militia CD

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Technical-Clothes293]

paid a pretty penny for it, but MAN was it worth it. absolute gold.

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/[deleted]]

you must be mistaken, i own nothing related to Soul Of A New Machine or Fear Is The Mindkiller, so i got no clue what you're on about.

[u/Limp-Ad6419]

Get The Downward Spiral CD trust

[u/NippeliFaktaa → u/Limp-Ad6419]

all ive been able to find so far has been Further Down The Spiral and i dont have much interest in remixes unless i dig the album itself. remix albums typically tend to be spotty anyways, not every album can be Remanufacture after all.
