Babyland

Example Album: You Suck Crap

Location: USA

Years Active:1989-2009

Style: Metal percussion, electro-industrial, synth punk

    Babyland were a synth punk and electro-industrial outfit from Los Angeles. A heavy part of their sound is the use of found materials, scrap metals, power tools to create complex compositions of percussion over top an electro-industrial and synth punk foundation. Later on, they took on more synth pop influences, mixing it with the sounds of beating metal-on-metal percussion.

    If you're looking for some well-produced metal sounds with electronic music this band will definitely appeal to you. Their first album You Suck Crap is a good example of this style. The vocals and fast drum machine parts really remind me of Ministry from The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste era. It's uncanny actually, this dude really sounds like Al Jourgenson. There's a 90's post-industrial vibe to this band in general.
