Odell Nails sends us this news: On the far end of the musical spectrum from... well, just about everything, Tesco presents the God Blast America festival at North Six in Williamsburg Brooklyn this weekend [September 27, 28 and 29th.] "An industrial, noise, power electronics, and martial music event unprecedented on American soil." This is not your dancefloor friendly synth based industrial, ala Front 242 and Nine Inch Nails, but rather the noisy, brutal, sometimes downright evil, and sometimes surprisingly beautiful variety that fans of NON , Merzbow and the film Tetsuo: The Ironman would appreciate. Some of the ideas and imagery presented in association with the God Blast America festival can easily be taken as offensive to say the least, and I personally question their taste in this department. Tesco however points out that industrial music is often misinterpreted for using controversial and extreme imagery, while the true intent is to reflect [NOT promote] the often violent state of the world around us. See and hear for yourself.
