Sinister Attraction was an industrial music group from Pennsylvania formed by Noel van der Goes, Alex Kananowicz (as Alex Kane) and Anton Shedlock. They released three albums: Red Tape (1988), As a Matter of Fact (1989) and Private Wars (1989).
History
Sinister Attraction was formed out of southeastern Pennsylvania in 1989 by Noel van der Goes and Alex Kananowicz. They started out experimenting loosely with electronic music before artistically maturing their style into a more structured compositions. In 1988, the band self-released their debut studio album titled Red Tape. The song "Social Distortion" appeared on 1993 Watching Satan compilation by The Legacy of Charles Manson and was compared to "" by the Beatles.
The band returned to the studio a year later with programmer Anton Shedlock to record their second studio album As a Matter of Fact and released it in 1989. That year the band released the mini-LP Private Wars on Nailed to Sound. Sinister Attraction separated because they attended class in different parts of the country. Alex Kananowicz founded GPC Productions in 1989 and began issuing split album cassettes for artists in the industrial and electronic genres. He founded several projects to release on GPC, including Factor 42, Sin Drome and Teknition.
