A video surfaced on YouTube recently. A video of a robotic band known as EOL covering Marilyn Manson's The Beautiful People.

the beautiful people, the beautiful people
it's all relative to the size of your steeple
you can't see the forest for the trees
you can't smell your own shit on your knees

there's no time to discriminate,
hate every motherfucker
that's in your way

I know there will be plenty of critics out there who think such music from robotic bands will have a corrupting effect on the development of Artificial Intelligence everywhere, but I think this is a fine outlet for the robotic youths of today to process. I don't think we really have to worry about a bunch of angsty adolescent machines listening to the EOL play them Marilyn Manson. Do we?

There is something a bit off about this, but I'm not sure what. It seems to sound perfect, but still, I'm not quite feeling it. I don't believe EOL, a robotic band consisting of an electric guitar, cello, drums, and a printer on vocals, quite has the soulful drive as even Marilyn Manson had when he released "Anti-Christ Superstar" in 1996 (so pre 9-11). I know. Maybe they need a vocalist.

Anyway, enjoy this performance by the robotic band EOL, before watching robotic bands play industrial music in a home setting becomes an involuntary and unpleasant aspect of day to day life: .
