Dead Inside (album)
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"Dead Inside (1996) was a stylistic turnaround for the Golden Palominos, and their last proper album. This record had a deathly, industrial sound, with the line-up consisting only of Anton Fier, multi-instrumentalist Knox Chandler, Nicky Skopelitis, and poet Nicole Blackman. Blackman's dark and deliberate lyrics (tellingly, Blackman had also recently worked with the industrial German band KMFDM) makes Dead Inside a challenging record; its sound and tone stand out as decidedly unlike any of the others. The album's opener is a brutal, spoken-word track, "Victim", which details a woman's thoughts as she is abducted and eventually murdered by her kidnapper."--Sholem Stein |
