THROBBING GRISTLE - TGCD1 LP
Throbbing Gristle revisits TGCD1, long out of print, now available on vinyl for the first time ever via Mute. This release includes the original sleeve notes by all the members of the band, uncovering the story and ethos behind TGâs independent record label, Industrial Records.
Formed in 1975, Throbbing Gristle, aka Chris Carter, Peter âSleazyâ Christopherson (1955-2010), Cosey Fanni Tutti, and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (1950- 2020), fully delivered on punkâs failed promise to explore extreme culture as a way of sabotaging systems of control. Their impact on music, culture, and the arts has been immeasurable and still felt today.
Originally released on Muteâs imprint, The Grey Area, in 1986, TGCD1 comprises forty-two minutes of studio recordingscaptured at their own Industrial Records Studio on a TEAC 8-Track in 1979. Initially serving as an exclusive piece of unreleased material for TGâs first-ever CD release, the recordâ dark and harsh droning sound stands as a significant chapter in their discography, showcasing the band during, arguably, their most formative era.
TGCD1 is reissued alongside The Third Mind Movements - both vital additions for dedicated Throbbing Gristle and industrial music fans.
