Partial History
The Eugenics Council began about 7 years ago under the name Total waste of  
Time, about 5 years ago they changed it to the Eugenics Council. Since that 
time E.C. has been playing shows across the U.S. Rosemary has been featured on 
the Susan Lawly release "Extreme Music From Woman", and  published in Feral 
House's Apocalypse Culture II. E.C. along with Dr. Randall Phillip headlined 
Chicago's Expo of the Extreme, sharing the bill with Motorhead, Genitortures, 
jello Biafra, Mary Ramone, Electric Hellfire Club, Fang, and several others. 
E.C. has recently played Houstons Dead Audio Music Fest, and has just finished 
finished a string of shows with improv noise artists Cock esp. E.C. currently 
has 2 cds out on Menchenfeind Productions, both splits with Dr. Randall 
Phillip, the infamous author of the extreme hate zine "fuck", and contributor 
to Answer Me. A now sold out 7' split record with Japanese electronic artist 
Facialmess  was also released on menschenfeind productions. E.C. have a # of 
releases that will be out shortly, including a full length cd, split 7''s with

reviews 
One review described the Eugenics Council as
: "brimming with malevolence, and so are her lyrics: "I don't want a fucking 
job/I don't want a goddamn fucking baby/shit, shit, shit". I'm sure if I could 
make out any of the other vocals they would follow suit. The first half of the 
disk sounds like a hardcore band set up to record in an industrial factory, and 
they are losing their voices and blowing their amps trying to drown out the 
noise. Some of the tracks have a surprisingly melodic appeal, with a clean bass 
guitar, undistorted drum machine and clear vocals. As if to discard any melodic 
complacency, this soon gives way to brazenly spite-filled noise, overlapped 
with equally malicious screams. This is not for then weak-eared." 


editor of "Waste Combat" had this to say: "Rosemary Malign's vocal style is 
unique, she could scream about child-fucking and make the audience think it's 
normal, and then in one sentence hit them over the head with their own reality. 
She practices word-hammering, complex simplicity. De-sensitizing the listner to 
the subject matter through repetition and word-play, and then suddenly, plain 
as day, she serves them up a foul and harsh truth, even if it is her your own." 


A review of Rosemary's track on the Extreme Music From Women c.d. (Gary 
Simmons): "First off is Rosemary Malign's 'No You Listen', the best 'song' 
title in this collection by far without yet having heard a single note. Ooh! 
That made me jump, wasn't expecting that! The sound of a mainframe computer (a 
Cray 2 or 3 with any luck) tied to the back of a truck and taken for a scrape 
down the dirt track, bouncing to its piecemeal decimation. The initial 
child-like vocals are almost Ramptonesque ..A deranged cacophony of the very 
highest quality. Wonderfull! What a great way to open the album. " 

Panicsville
PANICSVILLE (Nihlist Records) with BRAIN TRANSPLANT and METALLUX PANICSVILLE is 
primarily a one-man outfit –that man being Andy Ortmann- with occasional 
appearances by a rotating crew of sonic terrorists. Over the course of the last 
several years, PANICSVILLE has released three full-length albums, a 
cut-and-paste record (in a limited edition of 100, Ortmann collected and then 
destroyed ‘crates and crates’ of records and then reassembled them in a 
playable fashion), and several striking singles. OrtmannÂ’s tastes seem to run 
the gamut as his pieces are occasionally beautiful, and at other times 
terrorizing. But beyond the always-compelling compositional elements, Ortmann 
also exhibits a profound concern with the conceptual capabilities of his craft. 
Not simply content with musical experimentation, Ortmann attempts to push 
‘consumers’ beyond preconceived or assumed notions of track sequencing, 
formatting and even packaging in an attempt to synthesize each project into 
itÂ’s own abstracted entirety.
