[BonzoGoesToMexico]

hahahaha the greastest interview i ever seen

[tbwannab]

hahahahahaha

[thisdyingage]

yep, this guy hammered sheep on drugs when lee and duncan were desperate for a label in 1995/96. I came very close to getting them signed to spv / synthetic symphony but they went to invisible = atkins royally fucked them over. plenty of other 'artists on invisible' stories. sure he is a positive part of industrial music history, that will never change, but...

[DalyComedy]

hey chicago 4112 stop being a fuckface and learn your facts before you talk shit about someone. He doesnt teach at a Chicago community college he teaches at columbia college one of the top 3 art schools in the country. You fucking cunt

[Cafeteria]

Anyone who saw Atkins drum with Killing Joke in the early 90s ("Intravenous", anyone?) will at a minimum concede that the dude's got talent.

[COTDEATH]

Oh look, its Martin Atkins. The guy who has shit on so many great artists he signed to his label. What a cunt.

[technogeist]

Chicago4112,

it appears you have some kind of personal vendetta against MA.

Even if your spewed venom is true, so fuckin' what?

Where is your record label?

Where is your backcatalogue of playing in some of the finest underground bands?

Where is your book?

Where are your production skills?

and last but not least...

Where are your balls?

[howloom]

keep in mind when you get the Tour:Smart book, the best advice you find in there will be from someone else besides martin most of the time.

[Chicago4112]

Sad. So, a band needs words of wisdom from a 50 year old man who teaches at a Chicago community college.. A guy who owns a NON EXISTENT record label that makes a couple bucks a week selling $1 shirts on eBay. A guy who is nearly bankrupt and can't afford a wardrobe (look at all these YouTube clips...he's been waering the same suit for 3 years!)...

[Chicago4112]

And anyone who has seen the 2005 Pigface Tour Documentary DVD that Invisible sells on eBay can see this guy is BROKE.

[daniellebassguitar]

this guy is very awesome! he knows the music buisness like the back of his hand, i have to buy his book......

[IWobble66]

actually, he doesn't. Any of his former clients can tell you that.

[orlandomama]

Free advice to arm us with knowledge to achieve our goals......how amazing is this?

[chariot05]

this guy wrote the greatest book for musicians

true genius

[peace0ff]
