Intelligence and Sacrifice is a 2001 album by German recording artist Alec Empire. While by no means his first solo album, it was his first full album since the demise of his former band Atari Teenage Riot, therefore marking the beginning of a new phase in his career. This recording consists of two CDs, each with a significantly different sound. CD 1 is somewhat consistent with the ATR formula while the second disc (printed on the album cover as CD2) is entirely electronic with negligible use of vocals.

[edit] Notes

  • "Tear It Out" (Remix) is an alternate version of a track originally intended for Dave Grohl's Probot project. The project consisted of instrumental tracks recorded by Grohl, with vocals provided by several well-known heavy metal singers. When Probot was finally released, Empire's contribution was not used, the track was re-recorded with new lyrics and vocals by Mike Dean of Corrosion of Conformity and it became known as "Access Babylon" [1].

[edit] Singles/EPs

The "New World Order" EP was released several months before Intelligence and Sacrifice and contained two tracks from that album and two from the Shards of Pol-Pottery EP. The singles "Addicted to You" and "The Ride" contained raw and extended mixes, remixes and live tracks.
