Welcome to Review Revue, where every Thursday I dig through the KEXP stacks to share DJ reviews and comments written on the covers of LPs (and occasionally CDs) in the ’80s and ’90s, when the station was called KCMU, the DJs were volunteers, and people shared their opinions on little white labels instead of the internet.

As we fold up our fine black linens, stub out our clove cigarettes, and close the books on another World Goth Day, I am inspired to share something from one of the Pacific Northwest's few homegrown goth-adjacent acts, Vancouver's own Skinny Puppy. I don't know whether to actually call them a goth band - I don't want to get myself into trouble with any goth purists by declaring anything to be goth without 100% certainty - but they certainly share many attributes with that scene, and based on my own experience with goths, there is an overlap in the fanbase, if nothing else. Sadly, this long-running and prolific group was not a big favorite at KCMU in the mid-'80s.

Cleanse Fold and Manipulate Skinny Puppy. Released June 25, 1987. Cleanse Fold and Manipulate Tracklist. First Aid Lyrics. Addiction Lyrics.

It’s that classic “haunting” sound that Skinny Puppy did so well in those days. Worst Track: There are several on this album that just don’t interest me at all, but I’ll go with 200 Years because it seems to just ramble on with noisy stuff that never really forms into a song. Cleanse Fold and Manipulate. May 23, 2019 As we fold up our fine black linens, stub out our clove cigarettes, and close the books on another World Goth Day, I am inspired to share something from one of the Pacific Northwest's few homegrown goth-adjacent acts, Vancouver's own Skinny Puppy. Later in 1987 came Skinny Puppy's third full-length album, Cleanse Fold and Manipulate. Described as 'a turning point, where experimentation is just beginning to gel with innovation', the album marks the point where the group began to explore more political themes, delving into topics such as the AIDS epidemic and the Vietnam War. Their third album Cleanse Fold and Manipulate was released in the summer of 1987 and drove deeper into socio-political issues that the band cared about such as Aids and PTSD. Featuring classic cuts ' Deep Down Trauma Dogs ' and ' Addiction,' it was supported by the Head Trauma world tour featured in their 1989 live film Ain’t It Dead Yet?

If the comments on their debut album were contentious, this, their third, was almost universally scorned among the DJ population. Mix in a DJ comment scandal that I don't totally understand, though, and you've got some fun reading, anyway. (Note to Nivek, cEvin, and the gang: please don't take it personally; this was a long time ago.)

'Take equal parts bad Cab. Volt, Portion Control, and the most obvious industrial music [illegible], send them to Vancouver and this is what you get. Nothing new. This may've been invigorating at one [time?] but now it's zip. Destined to be fashionable and popular with the Aqua-Net/Miss Clairol crowd.'

'This is sooooo scary. Yuck!'
