Skinny Puppy "Stairs & Flowers", "Dig It" and "Testure"

[VikingLady219]

Thank you for posting this! Did these videos come from a disc set? Which one? I wouldn't mind having it! :D

[megachaphe2]

Okay, so does anyone know in what movie the sample that says "Do you hear that? The music, up there; do you hear it? There's somebody here!" is? I have found a bunch of SP samples in various movies, I figure someone must know...

[heebjeeb76]

@megachaphe2

I don't know. In Warlock where the guy says "Now is the only thing that's real" is from a REALLY cool speech some guy gave decades ago. I've actually heard the whole thing once & it was very anti-new world order & inspiring... I just can't remember where I saw it. Might've been Burroughs... have to research further.

[OhGrGrL]

@megachaphe2

I believe its a Twilight Zone episode. Black and white series...I believe its the episode where some astronauts (?) land in some weird land and everyone is frozen. Bizarre...Ive noticed alot of sampling from Twilight Zone. Whe ScyFy channel had a marathon many years back had the chance to catch it...awesome

[megachaphe2]

@OhGrGrL Cool, thanks. And now, my follow-up question... Is it James Stewart who says it? Kinda sounds like him; maybe that's just how everybody talked back then...

[OhGrGrL]

@megachaphe2

Im not sure...from what I remember (and it was a few years ago) that he was blond. I also remember from another Twilight Zone episode, the line "My name is Stella. Dont you recongize me?" off of the Rabies album..one of the last songs. Sorry Im not remembering. It is always fun when you find a sampled line in a movie or TV show!

[megachaphe2]

@OhGrGrL No, no, silly, "It's me, your friend, Stella... don't you recognize me?" is from Roman Polanski's The Tenant. Now go watch that movie again. Samples galore! And a pretty decent movie to boot.

[OhGrGrL]

@megachaphe2

lol...ok. Ill go watch it. Thanks!!

[tobeyanteus]

yes

[condessarte]

Loved them years ago when i lived in Ottawa, love them now in the rainforest Guatemala!!!

[tool619]

@hellsux2012 you're a sexy kid.

[jumpfart666]

DIG IT!!!

[jumpfart666]

!!!!!!!

[dubbified]

OMG.. I used to rock some Skinny when I was DJ'ing for my old College radio in 93.. No body had a clue.. bunch of farmers.. Studio monitors and soundproof rooms are a requirement when listening to this!!

[davesmasher]

if you saw images in vogue... yeuuuuccchhh! skinny puppy was a good move on their part.

[Rosster77]

I agree...original and free form for the '80's in a time where most things were regimented. I had some experimental times with medicines and Skinny Puppy was a part of that. Very good times...

[stormshadowlord98]

synth classics..skinny puppy was sooo apealing to me back in the day...ingenuity, and originality...and the fact that hardly anyone knew them was the best part of it all..these guys definetly didnt follow or care to be "mainstream"..i respect that.

[oldpunkster]

These are 3 of my FAV SP songs!  Thanks for posting and making my day!!!

[avadyrka]

my favourite tunes! ta for the uploading! :)

[maxeypad]

Cevin key tomorrow night woot

[FLAT4MOTORSPORTS]

i heard this video was banned from mtv for rumors of the frame or boarder at the top and bottom of the screen being a snuff film

[NuclearLullaby]

@FLAT4MOTORSPORTS & then MTV went & banned all music related content from their programing apparently!

[scrappingfoetus]

Skinny Puppy are one of the Best

[FistSaidToTheFace]

@hellsux2012 are you serious? how did you manage to be a part of it? that's actually really exciting.

[bryantaber]

Kiss me goodbye. When the guy falls down the stairs

[Letalone]

anyone know what movie is being sampled at the end of flowers and stairs?

[MarinoXDesun]

cEvin is one sexy beast.

[gyeszno]

Strange...you can hear that bassline in an In Strict Confidebce song, called "Beautiful pain".

[nuriumzzzzzzzz]

why does this version have that bassline that starts around 00:30 and the one on the singles collect and mind the perpetual intercourse doesnt?

[Cathayano]

I agree with stopping the vivisection on helpless animals!

Skinny Puppy, the best!

[ranrio70]

Yur still the shit Ogre! Remember when we smoked that shit in S.A. back in 89?

[VALsacount2]

Reminds me of Fallout 1, and 2.

[1787dude]

@VALsacount2 man i miss those games. u could shoot people in the groin... :(

[zeta2323]

dit

[Dababycougar]

i used 2 fry hard an listen 2 this

[HTFAmvs]

"Stairs & Flowers" fucking kicks ass!!!

[88UnderTheDrum]

skinny puppy kicked ass back in the day

[zyclonb6]

@88UnderTheDrum still do....cheers

[MegaBigdog420]

Wow

[smileydeven2236]

testure was a badass song ^_^

[punkrockgrungegrl]

My step dad saw them in Seattle last month, he invited me I listened to some of their stuff online,I didn't like them because it's very techno I'm not really into that, but everyone has their own tastes and interests, I respect that.

[albatros777]

Well this definitely isn't techno at all. So maybe you should expand your horizons more--maybe you'd like techno if you don't like this? :-)

[AtrocityBrothersInc]

thanks for sharing

[ginsushark]

this is the dance remix version of the track. you can tell fro the cheesey bass line. it broke through on the main stream dance charts at the time.

[seanjohnvigil]

just listen

[tool619]

i love Mind:A Perpetual Intercourse album, i keep it in my drawer everyday. =)

[invisiblemute]

Didn't know Skinny Puppy made funky sexy stuff. I love this!!! Thanks!!

[ThePixelParadox]

and what lovely noise it is : P

[kthalynna1947]

fucking vivisection,thats pure cruelty!!!

[WhiteStarCyanide]

We all agree. :(

[tribrach3]

I did not know Cobra Commander had a band! ....No Destro you'll kill us all!

[NuclearLullaby]

These guys have been kicking ass since 1983 & haven't stopped a day since!!! Even Dwayne's death couldn't keep these guys from being insanely awesome!!! I think Skinny Puppy fans need to rally together & get these guys into the hall of fame!!! Damn do they ever deserve that!!!

[spadehatesscrewtube]

'82 if you count back and forth.

[JacKinTheBoX242]

@NuclearLullaby dude they truely desever it but not many people have herd of them and theyr mianly undeground but hell to the yes they at least deserve somthing in the hall of fam

[zyclonb6]

@NuclearLullaby SP has its own hall of fame, I was listentening to too dark park last night. Looked at the jacket...its fucking 19 years old. I was 4yrs old when puppy kicked. "what'ya mean what happenened, I just slipped off these damn stairs" Dig it?

[kennedyduck]

@NuclearLullaby HAHA HA...!! The hall of fame... You're hilarious!!! :D

[NuclearLullaby]

@kennedyduck for something like that to EVER happen would be like some sorta major world shift or something,so yeah...probably never going to happen! BUT...SkinnyPuppy totally deserves every once of fame & recognition they get! (which isn't a ton,but it is more then some bands could ever hope to get!)

[heebjeeb76]

@NuclearLullaby

Absolutely. People don't realize how much of an effect they had on metal & industrial/what I call "electro-metal" ... I'd venture to say they've played a vital role in molding modern metal- so yeah, HALL OF FAME!

Ministry (Al was in Puppy at one time), Nine Inch Nails, Tool (Maynard & Danny have said Puppy influenced them), Fear Factory, Die Krupps & many more electro-metal/ Industrial & Metal...

There's a new "DJ" called Skrillex who sounds like he's a Puppy fan, check it...

[heebjeeb76]

[CONTINUED]...

Youtube search: "Skrillex First of the Year Equinox"... sort of more recent Skinny Puppy style with a unique twist.

Downright badass electronic music! Check it... you'll be happy you did!

[skinnypuppy1]

drugs were a part of SP, ive been down the same path their music is a reflection..

[WhiteStarCyanide]

I did a comic-like pic for the song 'stairs and flowers.'

I'm putting all of my skinny puppy fan art on my DeviantART soon.

[soggyleftovers]

testure has a good bass line to it

[spadehatesscrewtube]

so does dead of winter/sore in a masterpiece

[Dunkelheit420]

I absolutely love Skinny Puppy, and totally love both Ogre and Cevin!

[IndependentFilmmaker]

I have a sick obsession with skinny puppy... Nivek did a great job in Repo, but since i've heard he is a crack addcit, i have lost most respect for him... :(

[reznorazor]

Amazing Canadian band

[darkriver29]

Good thing Skinny Puppy, Frontline Assembly, KMFDM, Leaether Strip are still going, Cause then we'd have to sit around and get depressed listening to NIN :/

[roknjules3]

T,R was raised by these guys, we love you pigface and all the pioneers of the origanal industrial. but it's nice to know someone keeps it going., to you nine inch nails we should all appauld

[WhiteStarCyanide]

2:00  KITTY!!!!!

[adj789]

[jgalaxygal]

[isthisdesire23]

just like Down in it by Nine Inch Nails

[ElvisDumont]

Trent told it several years ago. Down in it slower version of dig it.

[Intelep]

It was actually MUCH faster.

[starryeyedfae]

They did release this. It's on Mind: Perpetual Intercourse.

[nuriumzzzzzzzz]

@starryeyedfae its not the same version as on mind

[scumfuck20x3]

i wish they had released this version of stairs and flowers

[scumfuck20x3]

nevermind its on the 12 inch anthology, also, i spoke with ohgr the other day at his dc show and he said the sole purpose of this song was to make people trip out while listening to it

[skinnypuppyfan12]

Old SP was amazing.

[Rainzkul]

Awesome video... This would make for a killer DJ set, or at least part of one.

[buckdichfurzven]

I think I actually saw dear old Mark for a few seconds. Old SP was amazing

[JacKinTheBoX242]

old skinny puppy still is amazeing

[hocico101]

Aaaah the old days.. floods of nostalgia lol
