‘Contort Yourself’ is probably the best-known track by the band.

James Chance was alternatively known as James White, though neither of those are his real name. He was also in the short-lived band Teenage Jesus and the Jerks with Lydia Lunch, which outfit was influential in New York City's downtown ‘no wave’ scene.

From the Bandcamp page of the album:

Made as a complete album rather than a collection of tracks, Conservative Apocalypse is a journey through the subconscious. I have experimented with augmenting recorded sound with electronic instruments to give atmosphere to commonplace situations, and originally the record was to be entitled Augmented Aurality. However due to the appalling lurch towards fascism that is taking place in the western world I thought it more appropriate to call the album Conservative Apocalypse after the eighth track. This was made deliberately as an accelerating train journey, I found a picture of the inside of a railway carriage that seemed particularly evocative and after cutting out the window, began the journey of creating the film. Nearly all the material was found online and patched together into this composite of a trip through our confused modern world. The slow start and acceleration of the ride I felt was analogous to how nasty social movements start.

And it's not AI slop either. Really impressed with the drum and bass, been years since I've heard thing that is worth a repeated listen....

I feel old. Every once and a while some pop culture thing pops up that reminds me of when this song came out. I'm not an older then this song, but the nexus that existed when this song was released always reminds me of a particular time in my life.

definitely his most technically impressive song

Part of a bigger lore across multiple songs of different albums, but I think this song is powerful enough and relevant to current times that it's still a good first listen of Ren.

The second album by Bill Laswell's band, with an odd mix of sounds. Although most of the band's oeuvre is centered on more straightforward funk-rock, this record is rather eclectic.

Buckethead: guitar
Brain (previously of Primus and Guns N' Roses): drums

Guests:
Bernie Worrell: keyboards on ‘Crossing’
Bootsy Collins: bass and vocals on ‘Deathstar’ (both Worrell and Collins were in Parliament-Funkadelic)

Mick Harris (of Napalm Death and Scorn): vocals
John Zorn: saxophone
Andy Hawkins: guitar
