Tactical Sekt is an electro-industrial act consisting of Anthony Mather (USA - Vocals, Keyboards, Programming), Marco Gruhn (Germany - Live Synths) and Jay Taylor (UK - Live Drums). They are known for their powerful, noisy, dark electronic sound similar to Suicide Commando or Hocico.
Tactical Sekt was conceived in the mind of Anthony Mather in about 2002/2003. Mather previously had experience with elektro-industrial music in his former band, Aslan Faction.
After some time, Aslan Faction stopped performing live and making new music, which persuaded Anthony Mather to devote himself totally to Tactical Sekt. The album “Geneticide” was soon put out and it featured, as Ant said in one interview: “…mostly songs that didn’t fit into Aslan Faction music profile…”.
Soon after “Geneticide” in 2003, “Burn Process” was released. The music and the atmosphere was much more euro-trance alike, emphasizing that Aslan Faction days were over.
In the following years Tactical Sekt were mostly performing live and doing remixes for other acts.
In spring 2006, a new album was coming out - “Syncope.” It featured 13 tracks, and besides the regular album, a limited edition was published which featured never released tracks, mostly from the “Geneticide” period.
In August of 2010, the band announced that after a long wait, a new album was in the works. There is no working title yet released.

I agree with LiamEBM on some points, except I absolutely love Tactical Sekt and Skinny Puppy. I can't stand some of the bands I "should" like (e.g. Hocico, and the majority of :wumpscut:). Some of those bands I "want" to like, but just can't keep myself from pressing the Next button when they come on. All personal tastes.

how do you not like this band after looking at your top 20 they should be your top 5. try the original tracks on Burn Process if you haven't. those are the ones that stand the test of time.

I always feel left out 'cause I don't like these guys, similar experiences with Hocico, :wumpscut: and Skinny Puppy. Personal tastes vary, sure, but I would expect myself to like their music. No offence of course, maybe if they release a new album, be a little different, then I could become a fan...
