Music > Project Pitchfork Submitted by: fatalist On: 2001-08-02 Genre: EBM rock tradgoth industrial Official Site: Offizielle Project Pitchfork Homepage Best songs: Timekiller Steelrose Souls (Extended) Requiem Renascence Souls Description, by fatalist Perfectly fusing the elements of Goth and Industrial music, Peter Spilles and Dirk Scheuber's 'Project Pitchfork' have been making dark music for over a decade now. Comparable to bands such as Skinny Puppy, the German duo started raw and intense, each release a progression and more accessible than the previous until they reached the unmistakable 'Pitchfork' sound. Dark electronic and acoustic layers accompanied by Spille's own tortured vocals make Project Pitchfork a compelling band to take interest in. Featured comment (1/2) by isolatedheartache on 2002-12-31 Even though I prefer their earlier albums (Dhayni, Lam-Bras, Entities, IO - as they're more darker) to their later material, they still have the rare talent of making songs that are gloomy yet danceable. Also, Pitchfork's songs make great background music for you know what *grins* [Submit a comment about this artist ]

Alpha Omega could be hailed as the album where Pitchfork really defined their own sound, industrial soundscapes with gothic undertones. I can't find any particular stand out moment on this record, the whole things consistently good. Darkwave dance beats and moodier numbers make it an enjoyable thrill-ride through out.

Timekiller is rapidly becoming a floorfiller all over... "What's realit compared to me" is a dazzling display of lyrical ego that matches the intensity of this, their most accessible album to date. They are getting less and less dark, but no less likeable as they mature into a serious EBM-pop contender. And they have a live drummer :) [ Submit a comment about this album | Buy ] Entities Music type: industrial Best track on the album: Souls You have to log in before you can vote! See best track results Featured comment (1/1) by fross on 2002-04-05 Probably Pitchfork's most consistent early album. The third one, linking a wealth of good tracks with interconnecting instrumental interludes. This album had great presence in clubs during the late 90s (five years after its release!) with such hits as Entity, the original Souls, Pan, Song of the Winds and Hell (mistakenly named Bell throughout websites - damned font!) Most of the top tracks on this are included in the "Early Years" retrospective, and deservedly so, but this is still a good album for the experience of traversing it from end to end.

Get the tracks from Early Years and leave it at that, i say!

This is a release to accompany Entities, their best early album, which is also a must-buy if you like this. Slower and more laid back side of Pitchfork, in general, but still good.
