CHRIST
ANALOGUE BIOGrAPHY
Christ
Analogue was devised in 1995 by programmer/vocalist Wade Alin.
The 1996 release of their debut album, “The Texture of Despise,”
earned the band instant respect and established them as a force
in the electronic/industrial music scene.
With some of the most aggressive and exciting performances ever
seen from an electronic-based project, Christ Analogue developed
a strong following in the Seattle, WA, and Vancouver, BC, areas,
and they began to contemplate the same exposure on a national
level. The punk ethic of their live performances bled over to
this effort, with the band booking and headlining their own tours
of the United States. Christ Analogue did five national tours
within two years, including shows with Sheep on Drugs, 16 Volt,
Electric Hellfire Club, Stabbing Westward, and two appearances
at the CMJ Musicfest.
After signing to MCA/Cargo/Reconstriction, Christ Analogue released
what would prove to be their most defining, but apparently final,
album: “In Radiant Decay." Critically acclaimed by
both the commercial and underground press, IRD made an impact
both in clubs and on college radio throughout the U.S. Despite
these successes, Wade Alin's relocation to New York coupled with
the collapse of Reconstriction Records caused the band's dissolution.
Five years after their departure, Christ Analogue has reemerged
with the stunning new album “Everyday Is Distortion.”
EID's sound ranges from hard-driving electro-industrial to downright
cerebral. A flawless union of intricate drum and synth programming,
strong ambient structure, and vocals ranging from intimate to
enraged bear the listener through this sixteen-song epic. EID
is quickly reestablishing Christ Analogue as one of the premiere
acts in the electro-industrial scene.
