Caustic Takes Aim at Bigotry with New Charity Single “It’s Not Gatekeeping If You’re A Douchebag”

Industrial provocateur Matt Fanale delivers a sharp-tongued new track supporting LGBTQ+ youth during Pride Month.

Industrial veteran Caustic has released a brand-new standalone single, “It’s Not Gatekeeping If You’re A Douchebag,” and, true to form, the project isn’t pulling any punches. Led by Matt Fanale, Caustic has long been known for blending aggressive electronics, biting humor, and unapologetic social commentary, and this latest release continues that tradition.

Released during Pride Month, the track serves as a direct response to bigotry and exclusion, delivering its message with the blunt honesty and irreverent attitude fans have come to expect from Fanale. Rather than disguising its intentions behind metaphor, the song wears its perspective proudly and loudly.

Even better, the release is supporting a meaningful cause. Proceeds from the song are being directed toward the The Trevor Project, helping raise funds for one of the leading organizations focused on crisis support and suicide prevention services for LGBTQ+ young people.

🎶 Listen Now:

With “It’s Not Gatekeeping If You’re A Douchebag,” Caustic once again proves that industrial music can be provocative, humorous, confrontational, and socially conscious all at the same time. It’s a fast, furious reminder that silence isn’t always the answer—and sometimes the best response is turning up the volume.

CAUSTIC Resurfaces the Infamous “This Is Jizzcore: PreJizz EPs (2008)” — A Digital Time Capsule Reopened 💀

Industrial chaos architect CAUSTIC tears open the vault once again, resurrecting the long-buried This Is Jizzcore: PreJizz EPs (2008) — a relic from an era before streaming swallowed the underground.

A Blast From the Filthy Past 🩸

Originally dropped as free downloads on the legendary VampireFreaks platform in late 2008, these early EPs were the feral warm-up before CAUSTIC released the full-length This Is Jizzcore the following year.

For years, these tracks were buried in the digital graveyard, unheard and untouched. Now, they crawl back into the light — unrestored, unfiltered, and unapologetically chaotic.

A Who’s Who of Industrial Mayhem ⚙️

The release features a stacked lineup of remixers from the golden age of online industrial culture, including:

  • UBERBYTE (RIP Richard)
  • SKINJOB (RIP Fitz)
  • UNWOMAN
  • [SYNDIKA_ZERO]
  • BETA VIRUS
  • ALTER DER RUINE
  • …and more resurrected audio degeneracy

This EP set is more than a release — it’s a digital artifact from a subculture that thrived before algorithms, playlists, and “skip” buttons. A preserved snapshot of industrial’s DIY heartbeat, soaked in noise, humor, and absolute audacity.

“F–K IT! Let’s get this out. FIEND II is released! I’m sick of waiting. Thanks to everyone who preordered, and enjoy the album.”

That’s it — no PR gloss, no delay, just a direct hit from Caustic’s sonic arsenal.

🔥 The Sound of FIEND II

The first FIEND installment was already a snarling beast, and FIEND II doesn’t just pick up where it left off — it tears open new wounds. Expect pulverizing beats, searing distortion, and Caustic’s trademark venom, balancing between brutal catharsis and electronic anarchy.
