J and Christina get straight into the music this week premiering a new track from Souless Affection. Also playing tracks from our Bring The Oontz winner G.L.O.W. and runner up Droid Sector Decay. Check out other new tracks from F.T.C., Cryogenic Echelon, C-Lekktor VS BLAKOPZ, and Cynical Existance who happens to be our album of the month, purchase it below. Hail Rainboots!
Our album of the month if you have not been paying attention is Cynical Existence – Come Out and Play – Buy it NOW!
The original Remix Wars Series was started back in 1996 by Off Beat Records and ended in 1999. Since then the industrial community has mourned the loss of one of the great ideas in the scene.
Sure the albums were licensed and re-released by the likes of 21st Circuitry, Cleopatra, Metropolis and others but no one has ever revived the series. That’s where COMA comes in, to bring back an old favorite but with a twist. You see, rather than just have two bands remix each other per album, we paired up eight artists into four pairs and set them loose to battle it out. Who comes out on top in these little skirmishes? Take a listen and find out.

Twin Cities Massacre – Day One
April 27, 2012
San Antonio, Texas, US @ The Korova
Review by: Tiffany Angeney
I’ll just start here. We all know what happened with the TERRORBYTE Festival, and while it was a tragedy, an amazing festival rose out of the ashes and this is the tale of what happened.
Jen, J and I left for Austin Friday morning. Sadly none of us got to sit together on the flight—I was stuck next to some random guy who’s breath made me want to cry. We finally landed, got the car, and left for the hotel. J has officially dubbed it the “North Austin Stink Palace” as it smelled like a hooker had died and left to rot in one of the mattresses. (more…)
Episode 68 is crazy. Tiffany is back to talk about the Twin Cities Massacre and conversation turns into talking about side boners, Cheetos and discussion on the proper way to do Heroin. Also, make sure you “like” The Oontzcast on Facebook because we have been giving shit away!

J and Christina discuss witnessing the wonder of VNV Nation and Straftanz for their performance in Phoenixj we play the final part of j.’s interview with Souless Affection, discuss updates on COMA’s fundraiser and be aware you can hear j.’s dogs in the background. Also, brand new FREAKANGEL!
For Episode 60 Christina and J are joined by Noelle (who is a part of the COMA staff) and they discuss their adventure at the Mustache Massacre in Phoenix and also their upcoming (now past) interview with Bella Lune. This is a great episode to listen to if you love new music you have never heard before! Also, we discuss the COMA Kickstarter campaign, upcoming tours, and play part 2 of J’s interview with Souless Affection.
So what is this fundraiser all about? Well, we have shot all our live footage with the same $200 camera for the last five years and now that camera is starting to fail. This presents the perfect opportunity to upgrade to hi def for more awesome videos and the camera I have found? Holy shit is it perfect for live footage.
In addition to that, US Airways busted the main lens I shoot live photography with when we went to Cyber Genetic Winter Fest so that needs to be replaced as well. So that, in a nutshell is what we are trying to accomplish here. Take a look at the incentives and be ready because it goes live at 10am MST March 14th, 2012.

Souless Affection – Shattered
Release Date: February 14, 2012
Label: DMWI Productions
Website: facebook.com/soulessaffection
Review By: Drln Nki Nicosia
I don’t know what I expected before I listened to Shattered, the latest CD from San Antonio-based Souless Affection. I had been spinning the remix of “Victim” (Track 10 on the CD) for a few weeks prior to the release, but I was wondering what the tone of a CD based on surviving horrific abuse would be. Industrial music is often a way for artists to work through personal issues, but rarely are those issues as difficult to imagine and comprehend as those addressed here. But somehow, you don’t get lost in the darkness of the subject… you want to hear the next track to understand how the writer made it through. (more…)
It is the beginning of March, you know what time that is? Album of the month time!! Listen and to hear who the band is and also the begining of an interview with the band! Listen is because, as always, there is some deep, meaningful conversation..

Christina Cubel – Awesome Hostess of COMA Music Magazine’s Oontzcast and occasional Reviewer
I started at COMA Music Magazine in January of 2011 with The Oontzcast and my life has never been the same. I am so thankful to be apart of something that gives back to the industrial community. Since I started the beginning of the year I have a whole year of awesome to write about (I hate writing, that is why I podcast). I will tell you some highlights relating to COMA starting with the album I listened to the most in 2011. (more…)
Cyber Genetic Winter Festival – Day One
December 2, 2011
San Antonio, Texas, U.S. @ Korova
Review by: Christina Cubel
On a cold rainy afternoon Master Commander J, Alex from BlakOPz, and I arrived in San Antonio, TX for the first day of the Cyber Genetic Winter Festival. Each of us had been preparing for this festival for weeks, getting interview questions in order, cameras ready, and we even did a special Oontzcast dedicated to all the artists performing at the festival. When the plane landed in San Antonio we turned on our cell phones only to discover a text from William, COMA’s editor. The text stated “Detroit Diesel was refused entry into the U.S.A.†We were all upset but I was livid because I purposefully did not go to the I Love Industrial show in Philly to see them play in Texas. Before we even left Phoenix, Inertia and No Longer Human ended up canceling for reasons unknown to me. To make matters worse, we got to our room at the Crown Plaza and found out the lens to one of the cameras was broken thanks to US Airways and probably because the baggage handler argued with Alex at the gate. Anyway things do get a lot better, I promise. (more…)
Oontzcast episode 47 is wrapping up our adventure at the Cyber Genetic Winter Festival and sharing stories of shenanigans that ensued. All music played will again be from the festival but we did forget to mention the street hot dogs and cunt flaps. Enjoy! Bind.Torture.Grill!!
Get ready for a special episode of the Oontzcast, it is all about The Cyber Genetic Winter Festival in San Antonio, TX on December 2 & 3. J and Christina are joined by Alex from BlakOPz to discuss the TEXAS FACE RAPE MASSACRE!!!! The three are headed to Texas to interview Detroit Diesel, Distorted Memory, Sin DNA, Inertia, Manufactura, Bind Torture Kill, Souless Affection, and MORE!!!
Various Artists – Don’t Mess with Industrial
Release Date: August 1, 2011
Label: DMWI Productions
Website: facebook.com/dontmesswithindustrial
Review by: Michael Faries
There’s a compilation out there that you should be aware of that’s called Don’t Mess with Industrial. With a nice blend of everything electronically noisy and audibly offensive, this compilation album is sure to impress any fans of the Industrial, EBM, and/or Noise scenes. These groups are from various labels (or none at all), and aren’t merely connected by their dark sounds. These bands all reign from the Lone Star state, hence the title of the compilation, which is a play on words of the old phrase “Don’t Mess with Texasâ€. While that slogan, itself, has always given me reason to look down upon Texas (because of the Billy-big-rigger attitude it insinuates), this new one only has me looking down half of the time-when my head is banging to the music.
