DEUTSCH NEPAL Benevolence (1993) CD
Lina Baby Doll has been one of the most uncompromising figures in European industrial and power electronics since the late eighties, and Benevolence is where Deutsch Nepal announced exactly what kind of project this was going to be. Abrasive, bleak, and completely indifferent to accessibility, it sits comfortably in that lineage of Scandinavian industrial that prioritised discomfort over dancefloors.
Released in 1993 out of Sweden, this record is an artefact of a particular moment in underground electronic music when industrial was pushing toward something genuinely confrontational, not as aesthetic posturing but as a philosophical position. If you know Brighter Death Now or Janitor, you already understand the headspace. If you don't, start here and recalibrate. Essential for anyone serious about dark electronic and underground industrial.
