Bile, The Copy Machine (Underground Inc., 2001)

I guess it was inevitable that Bile would release an "[x] Sings the Music of Your Life" collection (soon to be heard on oldies stations everywhere!). There have been so many tribute albums running around recently that almost any band could fill one of these. Bile keep it short (nine tracks) and surprisingly faithful to the originals, if run through the Bile filter; even a song that begs for desecration like "Do Ya Wanna Touch Me" is treated with kid gloves. The Go-Gos' "We Got the Beat" is converted over to keyboards, for the part, but it still recognizable. You'd never have thought Krzstoff had it in him. (The exception to the rule is "My Generation," which is completely made over into industrial metal, much to the betterment of the song itself.)

Special mention should be made of their version of Faith No More's "Midlife Crisis," during which I wondered more than once if Patton had joined them in the studio to record the track.

A worthy addition to the Bile canon. Fans and non-fans alike will find much here to enjoy. ****

Bile is one of my favorite industrial acts because have have a raw distorted sound that I really like and when I saw that they made a cover album I knew that it would be good so I got it and guess what it is good. They didn't just play the songs to sound like the original like some other bands do but instead they took these songs and added their distorted industrial sound which made the songs sound fresh and in some cases better than the original like 'They got the beat' and 'Love stinks'. My only complaint is that there are only 9 songs because the cd is over before you know it and I would loved to have heard them transform some other pop songs but for the price you can't really complain.

If you like Bile or industrial metal then you should get this cd because you will love it no question about it and tell them that you heard it from me for a 10% discount.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bile covers some classics with style, December 5, 2003

My first Bile album and I'm sure I'll be buying others soon.. I'm not going to waste our time trying to describe Bile other than to say they're loud, heavy, noisy industrial metal. Good solid rhythms, driving noisy guitars, etc. So if that sounds like your thing, you'll probably dig this.
