• Shrink-wrapped

After forging a legendary career as the frontman for<br>seminal industrial pioneers Skinny Puppy, Nivek<br>Ogre a name synonymous with dark electronica started<br>his solo project in 2001 with collaborator/producer Mark<br>Walk. Under the moniker ohGr, the duo has created a<br>challenging, innovative, and ever-evolving brand of music.<br>As with the three previous studio albums, Welt (2001),<br>SunnyPsyOp (2003), and Devils In My Details (2008), the<br>new album once again finds Nivek Ogre exploring varied<br>sonic landscapes. Weaving his signature menacing vocals<br>with haunting atmospherics, electronic modulations,<br>guitar blasts, and addictive hooks, Undeveloped shows<br>ohGr at its creative best. It could be due to his expanded<br>creative outlets; recently Ogre has ventured into acting,<br>appearing as Pavi Largo in the rock opera film Repo! The<br>Genetic Opera, and as Harper Alexander in Tim Sullivan s<br>new comedy-horror film 2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams.<br>It could be another high point in an already illustrious<br>musical career. It could be another destructive outpouring<br>of artistic beauty from brilliant madmen. It is all these<br>things, and more.
