Jigsaw9 6783 Posted October 19, 2015 ^ They were mostly active around 1994, playing dark industrial rock and electro-industrial stuff, sometimes with guest vocals from Raymond Watts (Pig, KMFDM), who was also a full-time member later in Atsushi & Imai's project Schwein. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxoHH8oKazI 1 doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tokage 5930 Posted November 25, 2015 I liked Schwein, but i've never listened to SCHAFT before.. guess i gotta change that now ;U also Ueda? Seriously? ayyyy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted November 25, 2015 ^ SCHAFT is basically a more old-school and trippier sounding Schwein, sort of. So I guess you might enjoy it. They had some crazy/random guest artists on their first album too (Coil and Autechre producing two tracks, The Mad Capsule Markets guys playing bass + drums here and there, and of course there's Raymond Watts). 1 Tokage reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
