The early 90s were a prosperous time for the industrial music underground, marking the transition toward a more caustic and aggressive sound. At the forefront of this new machine rock movement was 16volt, whose 1993 debut album Wisdom helped usher in what would come to be referred to as coldwave. Sadly, the original album has been long out-of-print, available via 16volt s website as a digital album only ... until now! In 2012, Metropolis Records releases Wisdom to the masses, remastered and featuring several never-before-heard remixes and bonus tracks. Featuring production from renowned figures like Dave Rave Ogilvie (Skinny Puppy) and Keith Fluffy Auerbach (Ministry), this re-release is a momentous occasion for fans of 16volt and industrial rock alike; a piece of underground music history that shows no signs of aging after almost two decades.
