Wayne’s creativity and genuine songwriting capabilities were underrated and under-utilized the longer the band went on for after the 2nd album. Even Machine was regressive in terms of WDT. Not saying that it was terrible but…as much pressure as there was by Warner Bros. to be as successful as Korn, Wayne wanted that too and it became the focal point for him. It’s part of why Ken Jay left. I won’t slag anyone’s musical preferences; Wayne was a fantastic songwriter and could do multiple genres very well. He was certainly gifted. And as far as his contemporaries go, he was definitely the most innovative and original sounding when nu-metal was taking off in the late 90’s.
@@PlotArmorHeroWell..., if we wanna go that route, the rotten ass Clintons, Obamas, Bushes, Bidens (there's more than you think), Gavin Gruesome, DeSantimonium, and countless others are all...., well, whatever you want to label that bs.
@@davidjenkins6626 Ulrich Wild said himself that this demo was top tier and didn’t know how he could make it any better. Luckily he did contribute to its success but it just shows that Static-X had everything planned out from the beginning and simply needed a bit of polishing. I believe that nothing will ever equate to this given it’s time and place within the history of music.
I have a 96 demo cassette that was signed by Wayne. I went to see Pelvic Meatloaf at Boston's in Tempe, Az and Static opened and stole the show. They were promoting the March 23rd release of WDT. They popped breakers several times and had to restart several songs. It was Friggin' Awesome!
sorry I've been restoring PC got the Pesky virus somehow and spent a week trying to restore to no avail... Not selling my signed copy. I may have a 2nd copy somewhere I will try to find. The songs were studio recordings of "Push It; Bled for Days; I'm with Stupid; Down."
no, it was signed to me. I had 2 one as keep sake signed, the other I played the hell outta it, over, over, and over again in car. was a courier at the time, I would part with the spare, but now cant seem to find it. sorry... if I do finally find it I will reply to you again
it is studio recordings not like a practice demo, or live. it was called a demo but was more like a promotional item sample out before full release to pass around and generate interest... It just had three songs on it with a bonus track called "Down" the songs sound exactly same as on the WDT album, so dont worry your not missin out bud
One of the best demo tapes EVER! Static-X & Wayne Static will continue to live on to this very day, in addition to never being forgotten despite Wayne's unfortunately tragic passing. RIP Wayne, you were one of the greatest Heavy Metal musicians that ever lived, and you are without a doubt missed dearly! \m/
Xzyro the Leyo Yeah it was very sad and totally unexpected. You can read more about it on wikipedia but unfortunately he accidentally combined alcohol with prescription meds and thus died in his sleep at a rather young age (like Chester Bennington) as a result to sum it up.
Seattle January 2000 at the Moore theater they opened for Powerman 5000. Along with Dope who had electrical problems and couldn't play their set, so Static-X played a double and killed it! None of my friends nor myself knew of Dope or Static-X at the time and were there for Powerman5k, who was awesome to see, but Static stole that show! Also they were handing out THIS TAPE for FREE at the door! Gaining some long time fans that day. 🤘🤘 My dumb kid self left it in a cassette player in a shop I worked at and it was lost to time.
"I’m a big fan of just using a drum machine in the studio, that’s how STATIC-X did our first two records, all drum machine. We recorded live cymbals, though. Because we play with all this sequencer stuff everything has to be lined up perfectly so it doesn’t make sense to bring in a real drummer. You set up the drums, the drummer plays, and then you go in and chop it up, so what’s the point?" - Wayne Static, April 2014
It was weird that a remix was the only way to hear the song until this demo tape was uploaded to the Internet. The studio version unremixed is probably my favorite though I still listen to the remix as well sometimes. I want the original version of Otsegolation+Otsego Undead when it was all one song and the WDT outtakes we haven’t heard. I would love a WDT version of Structural Defect.
in 97 i was the drum tech for a band that opened for static x (then just static) at the now defunct coconut teaser in hollywood. when they hit the stage i was blown away. i never heard anything like it. i might of got this demo that night or maybe at another gig but it was in my rotation til the album came out, and i was blown away even more.
I can’t count how many nights I would walk listening to Love Dump on repeat until the batteries died. Then I would take my spare batteries out of my pocket, and keep playing this until those batteries died too.
It's a great song but the lyrics are a bit disturbing. Depending on the person's perspective of it. Some say it's about banging a chick in the ass. Some say it's about a shit eating fetish. That's the disturbing part lol. And then there are some who say it's about a bad break up.
There are still more songs from the Wisconsin Death Trip that have never been heard before and it sucks that we probably never will. “Low Way” and some other stuff that Tripp would talk about sometimes along with his Ayn Rand obsession.
Ok I have 1996 demo along with quite a bit of never heard before stuff why you ask do I have this wayne and tera were my neighbors and friends I will get the 96 uploaded soon miss you Wayne and Tera I hope you like what Tony's doing

Can we trade whoever thumbed down this video to get Wayne back?
Unfortunately he isn't worth enough to bring Wayne back

I’m pretty sure they cleaned it up before they put it on TH-cam

Ulrich Wild is very great producer of 90's nu metal ever.
I've heard cleaner demos

I first thought this was a tuned down/distorted version of the album songs, but it's actually 100% legit
Fuck Yeah 10/10 this is Static-x at hundred percent full power!! Unbelievable!!.
Rip Wayne .that old Demo Sounds amazing
Oh...My...God!!
Been a fan of Static-X since 2001 but I have never heard this!!!

One of the few bands to have all the material, and they are more prevelent now compared to most current bands.

So many musical elements rolled into one. Such a fantastic and underrated band.
Wow.. been listening to Static X since '99... I never knew this existed 🖤🔥
I'm With Stupid is made with electric drums !?!??! WTF ?!?!?! This demo is real gem ...
Shadow Zone was the first album to feature actual drums. The previous albums' drum parts were drum machine with real cymbal overdubs by Ken Jay.
I think people would be shocked to learn just how many of their favorite songs are actually made using a drum machine heh.
You sure about that? I was only a fan of the first two records but they always had real drums on top of sequenced drums.
Kornholic Uhhh no, pretty sure they were real drums THEN dubbed with electric cymbals and polished.

KuKusPuKus I'm hearing it for the 1st time it's 11-8-2018 and the time is 10:14am.
I owned 1 of these back in the day when i worked at a nightclub in Orange County.
Good times. Lol
It's awesome that they chose Love Dump as their closer. That song is badass.
Whoever produced this must have been like “my job’s already done...”
Justo ahora el 2024 está terminando y yo estoy esperando verlos con ansias dentro de una semana aquí en Argentina!

So the songs have been written and recorded the first time long before the album Wisconsin was released? Almost colidates with the end of grundge era.
GEM
Thank you for sharing/
This is more creative than what was produced in the studio.
Statix-X demo man I swear they sounded good on everything. Not really a surprise though considering how well they sound live.
4:40 Sounds a lot more sinister than the final version
There are still more songs from the Wisconsin Death Trip that have never been heard before and it sucks that we probably never will. “Low Way” and some other stuff that Tripp would talk about sometimes along with his Ayn Rand obsession.
Awesome
Does push it sound fast but if you speed it up but Wayne sounds slow or am i tripping
2 dislikes? This is Gold my boy
4:14 onward is magic!
Wayne's dead and in 2018 still sounds great.
Can we trade whoever thumbed down this video to get Wayne back? rest in peace Wayne 🕊️
the demo sounds great rip wayne

ill drink to that rip wayne
Ok I have 1996 demo along with quite a bit of never heard before stuff why you ask do I have this wayne and tera were my neighbors and friends I will get the 96 uploaded soon miss you Wayne and Tera I hope you like what Tony's doing

And then everybody clapped.
So when ya gonna upload it??
96 demo is locked behind a legal issue
Put up a link or something.... anything?
Anybody know where i can get the individual tracks for the album?
Wish this guy would sell copies of this on a cd!
Just burn it to a cd
2:36 when your playing a game and you get to the boss fight

I did a cover of Push It! It reminds me of Thunderkiss ‘65 by White Zombie!
I like the part where he screams
I’d love to know who produced this.
Teenage me was wise.
i actually think i like the electronic drums on these songs more than on the official release
That's fuckin cool
Im pretty sure Wayne Static made us throw away the skip button.
the guitar at the start sounds like the 80s song "the devil inside ...devil inside"
Fuck
Yes
I love this tape so much everything the studio changed was wrong and should have stayed
I mean, those versions are gold too
This demo isn’t that bad... I heard some coal chamber demos and a lot of em I like more than the album versions. Especially I.
"Demo *TYPE*"??????
666 likes....hell yeah
I am is the best song ever
On my iPod Head is the first song and Push It is fifth.
