Stabbing Westward - Industrial Metal

Thanks.  I'll make sure this info is added to each album. 

I edited the bio to reflect some of the suggestions.  I left the part mentioning Bowie in there (assuming they played at a festival together), but I changed the wording slightly.  I'll add the lineup info to each album tomorrow.  You wouldn't happen to have a complete list of the role/instrument of each band member on each release, would you (either VioletEye or Starhammer)?

Cool idea to add this page, but there are a couple of inaccuracies here.

First off, Stabbing Westward never toured with Nine Inch Nails but they did share some members at different points. Chris Vrenna was in the original incantation of Stabbing Westward. Andy Kubizsweski was a studio drummer for NIN during The Downward Spiral era.

I'm also not sure if they toured with Bowie. Maybe at a festival? I know Placebo did, which incidentally enough was an opener for SW on one of their tours. Nine Inch Nails also toured with Bowie.

During the Ungod era, Stabbing Westward toured non-stop. They did a lot of festival gigs with bands like Rage Against the Machine and Jane's Addicition. They also opened for Depeche Mode.

During the Wither Blister Burn + Peel era, they opened for Kiss and The Sex Pistols. They also toured with Sponge (not sure which headlined and which opened though).

During the Darkest Days years, they headlined tours with God Lives Underwater opening for them. Their second tour was a headlining one with Placebo opening.

Lastly, the picture you have on your page is not a good representation of the band since there are only two actual members in the photo (Derrek Hawkins on the left, Christopher Hall on the right, and some strange dude not related to the band in the middle. Here's a link to a better photo from the Darkest Days era, and in my opinion their best lineup:

Here's some lineups to know:

Ungod
Christopher Hall
Walter Flakus

Wither Blister Burn + Peel
Christopher Hall
Walter Flakus

Darkest Days
*Same lineup as WBB+P

Stabbing Westward
Christopher Hall
Walter Flakus
Jim Sellers
Andy Kubizsweski
Derrek Hawkins (originally a hired gun and not included as a member of the band on the packaging, was made official member after the album came out)

Hope this helps, guys. Thanks for making the page! Awesome band!

I see something has happened and some albums have now appeared in the entry. I�ll check the entry to see if all releases are present.

Thanks for the bio. I�ve added the text to the artist entry. Now we wait for the albums to be added by the system. When they do you might wanna help with lineup info? I�m not sure how much you�re able to change on the album entries, but if you have some additional info, that I�m not able to find, please help add them.

Thanks. Bio incoming.
