I have never been a fan of what in America is called hardcore, or any of its spin offs for that matter such as the wonderfully named pigfuck. Perhaps it was because my frenetic punk days were past when this sort of music became big. I downloaded half a dozen tracks off Big Black's "Songs About Fucking" album (surely one of the best album titles ever, to check out whether my opinion had changed.
It hadn't.
Having said that, I did like this cover of Kraftwerk's "The Model", which featured as the B-side to this single. So I kept it. It retains enough of the original to be appealing yet is different enough to make it engaging. A band who can turn an electronic classic into a guitar thrash has got to be worth something.
