EBMC Announcement!

((Readded to allow fresh comments... Sorry!))

And we're back... It seems we've been dead and rotting for sometime now so I think its about time I brought this club back to life with a bit of a competition.

I challenge you all to create another wallpaper but this time for everyone favorite, Seabound. They released an album in 2006 named Double-Crosser so you might be able to find some ideas from the album art or from the website.

Unfortunately, we don't have anything to offer you all but a bit of fun and creativity. Also, you'd be giving this club a bit of a kick-start so we can continue on from where we left off and start creating a great discussion place for all EBM fans on DeviantART.

Oh, I have also added all those people requesting membership to the EBMC now so we're now at a total of ninety nine members! Not bad really!

I have also created a dAMN chatroom for you all to chat it if you are all interested. I'll try to be in there as much as possible and all members of this community also get member status in the chatroom. We'll need some operators too...

If any of you lot have any ideas or suggestions for the community please send us a note or just comment. Also, if anyone has any spare pennies a subscription would help us massively, it would allow us to create a forum to aid discussion.

I hope this competition interests you and you start creating! I'll see if I can dig out a prize or two from somewhere!

Over and out!

What is Electronic Body Music?
Electronic Body Music, more commonly known by its acronym EBM, is a musical genre combining elements of Industrial music and Electronic dance music. The genre's early influences run the gamut from the noisy industrial music of the time (Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV) to the Radical Dance scene (Portion Control, 400 Blows) and straight-ahead electronic music (Kraftwerk, DAF). The term was coined by the Belgian band Front 242 in the early 1980s to describe their music, and they are considered the first EBM band. Through the 1980s and early 1990s the style was characterized by harsh and often sparse electronic beats and became popular in the underground club scene, particularly in Europe. In this early period the most important labels were the European Pias and Antler and the North American Wax Trax; early bands besides Front 242 were Die Krupps, Nitzer Ebb, Borghesia, Neon Judgement, A grumph, Skinny Puppy, Severed Heads and Front Line Assembly, among others.

By the mid 1990s EBM began to borrow more and more heavily from synthpop, with the early releases of such bands as Covenant, Wumpscut, VNV Nation, and Funker Vogt combining harsh industrial beats with synthesizer-driven melodies. By the late 1990s many of these middle-era EBM bands (notably VNV Nation and Covenant) were moving more and more towards synthpop, leading to some confusion and debate over the meaning of the term "EBM." While the term is still debated between "purists" who prefer to apply it to music more reminiscent of 1980s-era Front 242 and fans of a more modern style who allow for less adherence to its industrial heritage, today the term typically is used to refer to a sound similar to that of the middle-era bands. In any case, the genre is distinguished from plain synthpop and from the newly named futurepop by the retension of some degree of harshness and industrial elements. Notable among current EBM bands are Wumpscut, Funker Vogt, E-Craft, Bio-Tek, Suicide Commando, Feindflug and Ionic Vision.
