Alec Empire is a terrorist, let there be no question about that. Slide one of his records onto your grandmother's gramophone while she's making a cup of tea and then, on lowering the needle, watch her writhe in agony until she can take no more and commits seppuku with a knitting needle. Then again kids, don't do that. I could get sued.
The Taliban got away with making war for five years, Empire's been doing it for a decade, plying a deadly trade in the kind of sonic slaughter that should have him pulled before an ear-crimes tribunal.
The main man behind noise terrorists Atari Teenage Riot, Empire set up Berlin's Digital Hardcore label in 1994 and seems to have made it his life mission to merge punk rock into techno in the most twisted way possible, which basically means very loud and very fast, like Melt-Banana meeting Incapacitants in a wind tunnel.
