is anyone out there familiar with throbbing gristle? i came across them only recently and they attracted my interst. i would aprreciate if anybody could give some recommendation for an album or whatever to listen to. anyhow, after listening to a few tracks from one of their last shows it seems that a good mental condition might be favourable when listening to them

That's just rude.

No it's not. It's a darwinian thing. Just like the Portuguese all have greasy hair (exhibit A: The Portuguese football team); so the Portuguese will occasionally come across throbbing gristle (exhibit B: Post above).

But commendable shout all the same, SG.

Throbbing Gristle's Greatest Hits is the only album I have, tho' it does have the sublime 'Hamburger Lady' on it. My mate Scottish Mick from Prolapse likes 20 Jazz Funk Greats the best (as do most people who are 'into them')

If you still have a turntable, pop into your nearest DIY and buy a few pads for an orbital sander, stick them on your t/t and play. Throbbing Gristle at a fraction of the cost.

Glad to be of help

Am rather fond 'Hot on The Heels of Loveâ€™ 'Weepingâ€™ and 'Dead On Arrival'

Not heard em fer aeons though

gotta agree with 20 Jazz Funk Greats...

but if you still can't get enough then search out extreemly early Virgin Prunes (pre If I Die...but i can not remember the damn name now)...Caberet Voltaire (from 79-80 i think) Nag Nag Nag and then for more mellow moments...Psychic TV

A band I have heard lots about and have been wondering about hearing for a while. They don't sound exactly easy listening!!!!!!!!

Posted: **30 Jun 2004, 21:27**

TG - founders of Industrial Music Records....later incarnation was the totally superb band Psychic TV...

If you have never come accross Mr Genesis P. Orridge et al I strongly recommend you go to kazaa/limewire NOW...

Here endeth the Doktors Perscription.....for good music!

TG's polemic was on target dok w.
Fact was they were the sound of white and red noise. GPO was not born to be a vocalist and he couldn't even master the electric bass guitar.

As to the 'Prole Art Threat' he became... go Google.

an awful waste of camoflage

sure, but anyone who could convince theNME (spit!) that he was a reincarnation of the RS finest was onto a winner??

remember how much they screwed up Mr Jools Holland on the tube?

nearly as good as what Fad Gadget (RIP) Managed!!!!!

anything live, especially the berlin concert, throbbing gristle was sooo great, btw,
they play wessex again next year (the festival that was cancelled this year due to lack of interest....)

thx for all recomendations - i already got hold of 20 jazz funk greats and will listen to it today. i couldn't manage to obtain some pads for an orbital sander but will try some sheets of sandpaper on my t/t meanwhile.
