Angelspit is a two-piece industrial rock band based in Sydney, Australia.
Formed in 2004 by husband and wife duo ZooG and DestroyX, Angelspit has toured through Australia and New Zealand supporting bands such as KMFDM, Tankt, Ikon and Angel Theory. Angelspit has also remixed tracks from each of these groups save KMFDM.
Their initial EP (Nurse Grenade) was released for free on the official Angelspit website, it contained an inventive mix of sampling and distortion, resulting in a style uniquely Angelpit's own, this style was refined in the independant realease of their 2006 album, Krankhaus.
Fans who purchased Krankhaus from the official Angelpit store, Surgeon X (also containing many items of industrial/gothic fashion designed and made by Angelspit themselves) were pleasantly surprised to receive a letter from z00g himself, thanking them for supporting Angelspit's album release, along with a badge of the 'red baron' (the logo for the Krankhaus album).
Despite their rise to national (if not global) success, Angelspit continue to have time for their fans, for example running the official Surgeon X stall at the latest Blue Moon gothic festival in Newtown, Sydney (Australia)
