Mortiis: 5 Albums That Changed My Life

"I think Nine Inch Nail 's best songs are actually spread across several albums, but this record is very important to me. The Fragile was just one of those albums that sonically mystified me to no end, everything from the sound design to the mix itself, not to mention the fact that it just feels important to me. It's sort of like those concept albums Pink Floyd or The Who put out in the '70s. I analyzed this record to death too, because it came out just as I was changing everything about what I wanted to achieve with my own music. To say that it was a massive influence to me would be an understatement."

The setting for tonight's gig is Kentish Town's own sticky floored The Bull & Gate; an old fashioned square back room venue that tonight is filled and nobody is leaving until the last fizz of guitar feedback has finished mid encore when we all file out with a noticeable look in our eyes like we've all just arrived back from Vietnam circa.1969 and creating an almost too quiet eerie atmosphere outside.
