Velvet Acid Christ (VAC) is an electro-industrial band based in the Denver, Colorado area of the United States. VAC was formed in 1990 as a recreational compliment to the emotional frustrations and drug experiences shared by its members, though it has since evolved into a form of social expression and commentary that is maintained by longstanding member Bryan Erickson. The band gained limited popularity in Europe’s underground nightclub scene during the mid-1990s and was introduced to North America as well as other continents shortly thereafter.
Bryan Erickson, a resident of Westminster, Colorado, has been the lead vocalist, musician, and producer behind Velvet Acid Christ. As one of the band’s founding members and its primary influence, the outspoken, occasionally controversial individual has been synonymous with VAC for most of its existence, and the direction of the project has been altered at times to reflect his own developments. Consequently, most of the band’s praises, comparisons, and criticisms have been aimed at Erickson, leading him in part to establish an active Internet presence as the band’s spokesperson.
Along with Erickson, several other musicians have been credited with contributions to VAC. In the group’s early years, its contributors held more permanent roles, though after a number of roster changes due to personal and creative differences, outside talent was consulted on a per-need basis. This process has shifted, however, as guitarist Todd Loomis and audio engineer Dan Olson are now credited as members.

i think VAC truly sounds a bit "old school", but this is NOT EBM. it's clearly industrial.

of course, but old school ebm is called "old school ebm", while this kind of ebm is just called ebm. nowadays theres only sex and drugs and tbm, no quality, trance synths and shit, thats the new sound. vac's sound is older. not old school ebm, but old :P

@versionfiv: I can't speak for Cthulhu02, but I also think of Velvet Acid Christ as a "newer" project. When you consider some of the other entities that make music within the genre (like Throbbing Gristle, Nurse With Wound, and, heck, even Skinny Puppy), 1990 doesn't seem so far back!

Fantastic work on this new album. The pod-casts and all of the online information for this album makes it that much better. Something new, is only adding to the massive pile of creations, that V.A.C already has.
