** [=DestroyX=]'s life in a nutshell. She and [=ZooG=] were running the biggest zine distro in the Southern Hemisphere before they started Angelspit (and she was about 18 at the time). Since then, she's moved to London, she and [=ZooG=] have released nine CD's in eight or so years, she started her own makeup and fashion line, [[http://aisforarsenic.myshopify.com/ A is for Arsenic]], and she somehow balances tours, music and design all at once. The woman's a bloody genius.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: "Defibrillator", from ''Hello My Name Is''. It's become an insanely popular song, mainly because it manages to combine two genres nobody in their right mind would put together (pop and industrial) and it ''works''.

** {{Combichrist}} raised the possibility of them playing a show or two together. [=ZooG=]'s response was, in essence, 'Fuck that, we'll have a rock duel to the death!' And that's what they did (though nobody died, obviously).

** "Grind" has elements of this- the lyrics are bloody creepy, and [=DestroyX=]'s voice sounds quite robotic, almost like [[{{Portal}} [=GLaDOS=] ]] as she sings it.

* CrazyAwesome: Both of them, but especially [=ZooG=]. His exploits include:
** Calling John Howard (Australia's former PM) a 'complete cunt' in an interview.
** Dyeing his mohawk pink and managing to still carry it off.
** Making a video about Angelspit's contest to find a new videographer that included him killing the old videographer and ending it with 'I need a knife, a fork and an oven built for one. Happy new fucking year!'
** In one interview, he decided he didn't want to just stand still and talk, so he got a trolley used for pulling around equipment, got the interviewer to sit on it and randomly pulled him around while being interviewed.

* FridgeLogic: Has anyone in the band realised that 1, some people actually like their jobs, 2, a lot of people stuck in jobs they don't like probably won't like being reminded of it, 3, often they don't have an alternative to escape to, 4, no matter how much they bitch about money, it'll still exist and thus we'll still have to fuck ourselves over to get it, 5, money is usually just a means to an end, and 6, if they want to do something, they should actually try exhorting the crushed masses to uplift their lives instead of telling them that their lives suck because of the jobs they have to do to survive?
