Throbbing Gristle are Chris Carter, Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson (who sadly passed away on 25 November 2010), Cosey Fanni Tutti and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, their impact on music, culture and the arts is immeasurable and still felt today. The dark clouds of their electronic mayhem are here, with highlights like the confusion of Persuasion U.S.A., the swirling psychedelia of His Arm Was Her Leg, and the seductive horror of Hamburger Lady. The few stabs that TG made at pop music (at least musically, as their subject matter was routinely dark) are here as well, with Hot On the Heels of Love, What a Day, and United. It also includes Almost A Kiss (from 2007’s Part Two: Endless Not), and this is the first time it’s available on vinyl.
