GRAVITY KILLS

Have you ever dreamed about how cool it'd be if there was a band out there that combined all the commercial aspects of Nine Inch Nails, Skinny Puppy, and Depeche Mode into one neat little package? If so, then Gravity Kills comes awfully close, maybe a little too close for me. It's danceable industrial, with deep, meaningful vocals about love and death and the ironic juxtapose of same, and slow keyboard sections accompanied by creepy, whispered vocals that are supposed to reveal what the song's really about (kind of like the requisite ballad interlude that permeates all "hard" songs on MTV). Heard it all ten years ago....
