Electronic Industrial artists Nitzer Ebb have actually only released 8 full albums since their inception in 1983. While they have been generous with a few extra EPs and Remix Albums, 8 albums in 40 years is not much for the band’s diehard fans. Luckily, fans can dig a little deeper and find some cool side projects by Nitzer Ebb’s band members, including Black Line which includes both Douglas McCarthy and Bon Harris.

BLACK LINE

BLACK LINE features members Douglas McCarthy and Bon Harris (Nitzer Ebb), joined by Cyrusrex and Ken ‘Hiwatt’ Marshall (Skinny Puppy). Black Line will remain the exclusive outlet for new recordings from this collective

BLACK LINE has released 2 EPS and 1 Full-Length album

FIXMER/McCarthy

The collaboration between Douglas J. McCarthy and Terence Fixmer resulted in some fantastic new electronic music that was a unique hybrid. Fixmer/McCarthy released their first album Between the Devil… in 2004 and would follow it up with Into The Night in 2008. Since then they have released several maxi-singles and EPs.
