 Supercoolnothing |Slipdisc/Mercury, 1998| 
I Fail Truth,Everyday Everything,Don't Pray,Keep Sleeping,Moutheater, Happy Pill,The Enemy,Machine Kit,Low,And I Go,Dead Weight,At The End
It's an industrial rock in all of its features. Clear, specific, and aggressive. Can be compared to Rorschach Test or Gravity Kills but sharpen a lot. Bring Keep Sleeping to play in any radio show but the rest is non commercial and ass-kicking. I'm not sure if the song called Low has to be placed on THIS album, sorta joke..?( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz. Must not be used for promotional or commercial purposes.

 Wisdom |Re-Constriction, 1993| 
Motorskill,Wisdom,Head of Stone,Filthy Love of Fire,Hand Over End, Will,Dreams of Light,Downtime Part One
I've never heard any album what can addict me from the very first rehearsal. The first song - Motorskill - it's an insane song with an industrial background, precise guitar riffs, cold beats and lots of dynamics included. I was afraid such a drive can finish after that one song but hell, no! Wisdom kicks ass in every of its aspect and can be compared only to The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste by Ministry. Listen to Head of Stone (the second kick after Motorskill!), Filthy Love of Fire or Will. The second part of Downtime song is placed on Skin album. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz.

 Skin |Re-Constriction, 1994|
Skin,Perfectly Fake,Uplift,Slow Wreck,Skin Graft,Stitched,Built To Last,Bottle Rockets,Downtime Part Two,Flick,Dead Skin
Fast drive, varies from industrial to metal music plus industrial rock of course and a bit of noise at the very end. The best song is Perfectly Fake. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz. Must not be used for promotional or commercial purposes. See a Legal Note for the copyrights below)
 Letdowncrush |Re-Constriction, 1999| 
Swarn,The Dreams That Rot In Your Heart,A Cloth Like Gauze,Something left,The Cut Collector,Crush,Breed,Two Wires Thin,Shameface,Carla's Tarantulas
I got an impression that the musicians looked for the most suitable vibes here. As if the can't decide if they should play either extremelly guitar driven or electronic for the media use. There is a song called Crush what I love the most but you can find Two Wires Thin, Something Left, and The Cut Collector interesting also. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz.

 Demography |Slipdisc/Mercury, 2000|
Imitation,Hang Your Head,Hate Rivet,To Another World,Darkest Before Dawn,Sister Friday,Out of Time,Free People,Speedpig,Too Late,This,I Make It Rain
It's a greeting to Ministry and their two albums The Land of Rape and Honey and Twitch. A similar way of sampling became a good pattern to use it into 16volt music. Demography sounds a way hermetic with lots of electronics, less of raw guitars, more of bass sound. There are two songs which somehow don't fit to the album - Too Late and I Make It Rain but Darkest Before Dawn but Hate Rivet sounds cool. ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz.

 Supercoolthing V 2.0 |Dark City Music, 2002| 
At The End (Club Mix),Happy Pill (Durtee Mix),Keep Sleeping (Radio Edit),Low (Filtered Mix),Suffering You (Demo Version),Plastic Blue (Demo Version)
2 CDs set contain songs released earlier in 1998, unreleased demos and remixes made by such bands like Filter, Orgy or Crazy Town. It's a set directed rather to the collectors of 16volt music but the demo song called Suffering You (Demo Version) shows a claw of 16volt, so well known on its previously released records.

 Imitation Demo |1991|
Imitation,Hang Your Head,Hate Rivet
The songs come from a demo tape released as 16volt debut material in 1991. Those 3 songs were placed on Demography album 9 years later. Lots of aggro-electro music with industrial rock vibe in a cloud of pollution ;) ( Katarzyna NINa Górnisiewicz. Must not be used for promotional or commercial purposes.
