Rabies marks a pivotal moment in Skinny Puppy’s evolution, blending their signature electronic textures with an aggressive edge that hints at industrial rock’s future. Recorded at the legendary Mushroom Studios in Vancouver from 1988–1989 and released by Nettwerk, the album stands out not just for its innovative sound design, but also for the collaboration with Ministry's Al Jourgensen, who adds his unmistakable energy to select tracks.
From the haunting atmospheres and sharp stuttering samples of “Hexonxonx” to the acclaimed use of movie dialogue in “Worlock” and “Tin Omen,” Rabies delivers a powerful listening experience that pushes boundaries. Tracks like “Amputate” and the live opus “Spahn Dirge” highlight the band’s ability to craft both despairing and cinematic soundscapes, cementing Skinny Puppy’s role as pioneers in the electronic and industrial genres.
