Anyone know of an old '80's band called Skinny Puppy? I absolutely love his music. His old music is better then all of his new music. my favorite albums are Too Dark Park and The Singles Collect.

I've never listened to Skinny Puppy's music, but I do know that Nivek Ogre starred in Repo! The Genetic Opera as Pavi Largo. He was one of my favorite characters.

I know Skinny Puppy very well, but I never liked them. I did love Repo! though and I thought Nivek Ogre was fantastic in it.

One of my brothers named his son Nivek. I never really liked them, but I've heard a lot of their music.

Yeah, I was a teen in the 80's and into indie underground music so yeah I know them. I just never liked them. They just struck a wrong vibe with me and a lot of their songs get boring after the first minute of so. They were too obsessed with ugliness for my liking back then. Some of my friends in high school loved them though.

Last Rights is my favorite Skinny Puppy album. Too Dark Park comes close. By the way, just so you know, Skinny Puppy is a "they", not a "he". :)
Most of the side projects by members of the band are also amazing.

Agreed, except.... I'd say Last Rights then VIVISectVI, Mind the Perpetual Intercourse close third.
