Current Roster
Banjax0red!
“Banjaxed” is Irish slang for broken or messed up. One can instantly hear how the l33tspeak version of this term is the perfect name for the brand of drunken, sloppy, insane breakcore that is programmed by a guy who performs live in a giant tanuki suit…
Black Market Arms Dealers
Coming soon!
Chard
Formerly Shard, this 4/4 electro-industrial band is rife with socio-political lyrics and samples alike. After several compilation spots and a 9/11 tribute single, they took a break to focus on other projects. Now they’re back, with a name change to signal their resurrection.
Cro-Magnon Woman
Coming soon!
Imperator HK
Coming soon!
iSv
iSv [short for Independent Sound Vendor, among other things] is pure aggro-atari, exploring the deep reaches of 8-bit space through industrial-strength chiptune goggles and circuitbent hardware. iSv makes soundtracks for videos games that don’t exist [...yet?].
Jeremy Lindemann
Film soundtrack alter ego of Remy Brecht, most notably as a contributor to the indie sci-fi series InZer0. A CD of his InZer0 work is set to come out in early 2010, and several more film projects are in the works for the future.

Jhator
Coming soon!
Mary Fist vs. Ana Genda
Two female djs-turned-producers, tired of the Michigan party scene and bored with most music that didn’t destroy speakers, decided to drop their dj handles, take on new pseudonyms, and team up to create new, harsh music in the vein of their favorite artists from Europe and beyond.
Phallus Über Alles
Feminist electronic punk band combining digital hardcore beats with riot grrrl attitude. PÜA teamed up with Hanin Elias and Fatal Recordings to release their debut album, Iron Woman. After 6 EPs on D-Trash Records, the band is set to unleash their sophomore album, Le Femme Terrible!

Reindeer Flotilla
Their name is taken from a password used in the movie TRON— if that doesn’t speak volumes about the band, nothing will. Reindeer Flotilla programs a hot mix of analog dance and synthpop weirdness that is possibly the most “accessible” thing on SIC. RF’s mix of “werk it” is featured on Information Society’s website.

Remy Brecht
In addition to hundreds of DJ gigs and concerts with Phallus Über Alles, Remy Brecht [co-founder of SIC, formerly DJ Rasp.utin] still finds the time to complete mixes for other bands and compose his own material, which ranges from distorted beat excursions to noise/hip-hop amalgamations.

Sardaukar Terror Troops
Named after the fearsome legendary warriors of DUNE, Sardaukar Terror Troops are on a mission to reclaim the territory once held by Teutonic EBM bands of old. 16th note basslines, pounding rhythms, and chanted vocals— electronic body music at its finest.
Scrotal Tear
Scrotal Tear deals with extremes. A mixture of death industrial, ambient noise, and horror movies, the band wears its influences on its sleeve— they’ve written tribute tracks to Eraserhead and Evil Dead. ST describes their sound as “the musical equivalent of the first five minutes after violent castration.”
Slave Cylinder
For 14 years, Slave Cylinder has been charting their own unique path through genres and subgenres of noise, from tape loop drones and microphone feedback to found metal percussion and computer glitch freakouts. SC was the start of everything that has followed for Slave Indvstries.
Sub Not Dub
Created out of a combined love of glitch music, sushi, program errors and Thai takeout. Sub Not Dub skips, cuts, deforms, and settles into funky broken grooves peppered with ambient passages. Get some drunken noodles, tom yum soup, bubble tea, and then check these tunes.
