front 242 released an ep (Raw & still), album (Pulse) and DVD/CD [Speed Tribe] last year.
Then there's Male or Female which is Daniel B. and Patrick Codenys of Front 242 ..they released an EP, two albums (one a double) and a DVD/CD...... you can find these titles under the electronic/experimental section on online store @ http://www.psy-harmonics.com.au
all of these release are expectional electronica/industrial music |

i'm a bit late on this one, so you've probably already bought one, but if i was only going to buy one front 242 album it would definitely be " up evil ". it's one of my all time favorite albums!
with that one they took their usual ebm style and gave it a techno rock edge which produced some seriously blistering tracks. check out the track religion.
it's amazing how fresh it sounds considering it was released 12 years ago. they were definitely ahead of their time.
but all their albums crank really. check out the album " off ", which was the one after up evil and released the same year. it has a similar sound but is much more experimental. and their older albums " front by front " which includes one of the best ebm tracks of all time in " headhunter " and the album " tyranny for you " are just classic ebm industrial. it's brilliant stuff which i still listen to regularly.
personally i found their new stuff quite disappointing. i mean i still like it, but it's just missing something. i don't think it compares to their older stuff, but that's just my opinion.
anyway, i hope that helps.
cheers

Front by Front is my Favorite Front 242, though Tyranny for You and Geography have their gems as well.
And if you're walking these roads check anything by The Young Gods. I still play in my sets some of their dark ambient tunes that are scattered through their albums- and their live shows are one of the more psychedelic experiences.
And a gem for Ministry lovers- search an album called- The Revolting Cocks- Linger Ficken' Good- excellent music and real funny as well, with a hillarious cover to Rod Stewart's Do You Think I'm Sexy. It's basically Ministry with some other guys, and there's even a mention of Thimothy Leary in the credits, though not clear what exactly did he do there...
Also a must check in the old roads of electronic experimental music of the 80's are Cabarait Voltaire.
Enjoy
