Skinny Puppy were my favourite band for ages. Obsessing over all their music led me to their side projects, led me into electronic stuff proper via Download and finally gave me a real appreciation for music that can hold my attention without requiring lyrics. Makes me sad that it's the final tour and I'll never see them live, assuming they don't come to Europe. Think I'd be proper emotional to hear their stuff live. Mad to think I am a latecomer to their music and I have been listening to them for 20 years.
I used to nerd out about Puppy to any and all who would listen to me bang on incessantly. Now everybody has to listen to me bang on about Autechre.
