I haven't heard that much Coil, but I can definitely believe their output is superior to Psychic TV's (and even good). Kind of distant from where my taste has drifted, but I'd still like to hear more Coil eventually. The only one I have is Love's Secret Domain, which I mostly like, though not the vocals as much as everything else.

On Love's Secret Domain (which I don't, as yet, own), I've only really heard the title track (by way of a cassette-only Wax Trax sampler at the dawn of the 90's). I have Scatology, Horse Rotorvator (which I picked up on the strength of the raves of "scariest album ever" on ILM) and Unnatural History II (which features the infamous Hellraiser tracks....originally intended to serve as the film's score, but turned down as they were "too scary"). I've downloaded stuff from here and there. Their official website, Threshold House, promises to stock more of their stuff soon, but you can download snippets of their music on this site: http://www.brainwashed.com/coil/

i know weatherall released on p-orridge track under the name PT001 on a sabres of paradise compilation.
now i run across this on nina walsh's sabrettes label.
http://music.hyperreal.org/flightpath/label/sabrettes/images/sr025.jpg
this is sabrettes 025 : POD's "gestator EP". there is another EP by POD, called "PODville", and a few tracks compiled on a sabrettes compilation ("mollusk" and "geodesic")
discogs.com claims this POD is kenny larkin, but i am like "uhuhnoway" because the whole deal is absolutely undetroitish, totally british in attitude.
so my question is: is anybody familiar enough with genesis' pierced cock to make a positive ID based on that label?

"Godstar" -- surprisingly hooky and poppy. Genesis will never win any awards for his/her vocals. Interesting, but not life chaning.

Search out PTV's 'Roman P.'
― Sasha (sgh), Monday, 10 October 2005 03:39 (eighteen years ago) link
Also Search:
PTV - Dreams Less Sweet, Unclean 12", NY Scum Haters live LP (w/Sleazy and John Gosling), Roman P. EP, and I like some of Infinite Beat. Their 7" on Sordide Sentimentale is super excellent as well.
TG - All four studio LPs, Journey Through A Body LP, Very Friendly LP for the studio stuff. Rafters, Thee Psychick Sacrifice (double LP version), and Mission Of Dead Souls for the live fix (haven't heard those Mute CDs).
Coil - Well, I love it all, but the two Musick To Play In The Dark CDs are ace. Also Moon's Milk and the live discs. After that I'd go early (Scatology, Horse Rotorvator, Gold Is The Metal) and then pick up the Unnatural History CDs. After THAT I might get L.S.D. or the more out there stuff (Glitch, Time Machines, Stolen And Contaminated). The Black Light District album is great too.
Chris/Cosey/CTI/Carter/Tutti - My very favorite is the CTI live LP European Rendezvous, the live record Elemental 7 is also superb. For straight Chris & Cosey I'd do Trance, Techno Primitiv, and the recent live CD Union. The Collectiv One CD has a good Carter solo and two killer 12" records - unfortunately not the one with Annie Lennox though! Heartbeat is good too.
DESTROY:
PTV - That godawful live disc that Sordide Sentimentale put out. All these lame new greatest hits and remixes things. Maybe half of the live series. I don't really like Allegory And Self much either. Love War Riot? Ick.
TG - I feel like even the less interesting live TG is still interesting, so the only destroy I'd mention are the dubious posthumous releases: Grief, Kreeme Horn, and a couple of others on the Dossier label I think. Avoid.
Coil - I refuse to relate the concept of "destroy" to "Coil". However, I can see how The Snow EP would fail to move some of the more stonehearted, and the ANS series is a bit, uh, static. Astral Disaster is a hard sell too.
Chris & Cosey - God I hate that Exotika/Take Five crap. There are numerous bad records that followed it, I'd destroy all the Nettwerk stuff. The music they have been making lately is quite worth checking out though.
That was fun.

Psychic TV on tour. Anyone seen them in recent years?
― Reatards Unite, Thursday, 27 September 2007 20:30 (sixteen years ago) link
There are eight million Throbbing Gristle threads. Might as well revive this one because:
1) There are full reissues of the original TG albums due with bonus tracks etc. in the next few weeks.
2) I'm lucky enough to have advance copies. And they look GOOOOOD.

i was very very tempted to buy the "wreckers of civilisation" book last night, but the 32 dollar price tag scared me off.― jess, Tuesday, 2 April 2002 00:00 (12 years ago)

in brief: terrifying The Man was pretty easy in 1970s England, all related parties were sweet cuddly people who continued to be so throughout their careers, Hawkwind fans used to be less tolerant than you'd think they ought to be, Wreckers of Civilization is well worth the read

Just seen a new edition of Wreckers of Civilisation listed on Amazon for August. Anybody know anything about that?Have been hoping that Cosey's memoir might prompt a new edition.

there was supposed to be a repress in nov 2015 that amazon took my money for and eventually refunded. so i am skeptical. but would be awesome if it happened.
