canadian band with members ''cevin key'' (keyboards, percussion) & ''nivek ogre'' (vocals), founded 1983 in ''vancouver'', canada. they've released their first l.p. "bites" in 1985, with ''wilhelm schroeder'' (better known as ''bill leeb'') as a band's keyboard player. in 1986, ''schroeder'' was replaced by ''dwayne goettel'' (later, also a member of the group ''psyche'').
over a career spanning 20+ years & with many releases, ''skinny puppy'' has remained fresh & vital to its many fans, & is considered as one of the most important bands in the ''industrial / gothic / e.b.m.'' genre, inspiring such acts as ''nine inch nails'' & ''marilyn manson''.
''skinny puppy'' disbanded for a time, following the death of ''dwayne r. goettel'' by overdose in august of 1995. soon after, their album ''the process'' was completed & released in early 1996, & quickly became a bridge that earned the band many new fans. after a 5 year absence, they reformed in 2000 for a one-off concert appearance at the ''doomsday'' festival in ''dresden'', germany (which has since been released as ''back & forth volume 5'', in 2001). the first studio album since their reformation ''the greater wrong of the right'' was released after years of anticipation in 2004. they embarked on a worldwide tour in support,& a d.v.d. has been released documenting the north american leg.
in the honor of this great band i'm bringing their rarest (but unofficial compilation) release with so many already well known tracks, but, however, it's the absolute form of skinny puppy's best-of-kind-of compilation i've heard so far :
01. ''techno body before techno industrial crackdown
(inna dis ya timeya presents skinny puppy - the final edition)''
(originally released in 2002, reissued as ''the final edition'' in 2009, unofficial release)
