[edit] InSoc reunion?

I've removed two edits about a supposed InSoc reunion. I have found absolutely no evidence supporting that claim. If anyone has a source for this information, please feel free to restore the edits with proper citation(s). quadratic 04:43, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reunion

Kurt confirmed the reunion news on LJ this week. http://community.livejournal.com/insoc/53340.html


[edit] Reorganization

I just read The Cure, & I think breaking up this page somewhat similarly might be helpful:

  • current band status - in the present tense, not past tense
  • history
    • 1980s
    • 1990s
    • 2000s
  • members
    • current & past, together or separate - with current bios
    • lineups
  • discography (as is)
  • external links (as is)

Thoughts, suggestions, spare change? -Pronoiac 03:50, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Eh, if no one cares, I'll clean up a bit. Well, okay, a lot. As I did that I'm getting oversensitive to grammar, but I'm going to hold back, for now... Ditto on providing much info on the 2006 version of the band. - Pronoiac 09:16, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
I think it needs more cleaning. The article seems to have too much info on each album, which IMHO should instead go to the articles about the albums. Stormwatch 15:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Request for Article: Baby Just Wants

Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation/2006-11-22#Baby Just Wants requests the article. The submission is too lacking in detail to make an article but the article needs to be made. The Information Society (band) article needs to be brought up to date and articles created for any released music. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 03:20, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Backwards Messages in Music?

On the old website for Information Society there exists this page: http://insoc.org/NewAlbum.HTML At the bottom of the page are two things I'd seriously like to discuss: 1. At the VERY bottom of this page in bright bold yellow are the words: "Information Society (dba InSoc) cannot accept responsibility for the mental influence of backwards messages. " Since this is infact on the bands OFFICIAL site page(Be it the old one) it makes me wonder if there are backwards messages in InSoc's songs. Perhaps? 2. Just above the Bottom of the page is a large mass of words. Out of this large sum I could only find the following message(the "| |" represent that the were words inbetween there in the original message, the [ ] that have capitalized letters between them represent what I believe goes there.): There is an o[N]| |ngoing controversy about the | | and censorship of the "alleged" 10th track on DBA, which, I can assure you, is | |Sly the only. I was unable to get past the i.i.t.f. to the point of actually getting the song on the album, but they weren't expecting the con| |nt anyway?? I mean, | |[T]he damn dogmatic totalitariansim of their control of the portion of InSoc that I turned over to them. I didn't forsee their megalomaniacal powermad tendencies. I know InSoc has a certain "sound", but I believe it's my prerogative to change | |[ATL]east I managed to sneak THIS message bye them... I only hope the in-the-pipe packet garbler aard was supposedly working on isn't able to route around and get this messa[GE] | | [W]hite Roses 1.1 is obviously not a song, per se, but there is of course, still the song itself to be found. You can only find it by starting with track 10 on the album. You know what to do. The pieces have been carefully hidden, to protect th| |E 16 approximately equal-sized pieces. They must be re-assembled to hear the | |before it's too late!!

If anyone could look at the original page and descramble it completely, I would love to see the complete message.

I'm discussing this becuase I was thinking of putting in the article that InSoc uses Backmasking in their songs and making reference about the alleged 11th song. —Preceding unsigned comment added by HeartCard (talk • contribs) 10:41, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
