Throbbing Gristle Prints, by gilsteph on Aug 15, 2008 8:36:41 GMT 1,
Commemorative Limited edition A3 TG art prints In commemoration of the 30th Anniversary of the release of TG's first album โThe Second Annual Reportโ and to coincide with the forthcoming publication of the Limited Edition vinyl album โThe 32nd Annual Reportโ (recorded live in Barcelona and Paris during 2008) Industrial Records have issued a Commemorative Limited Edition set of two A3 art prints.
These prints were first sold at the TG Barcelona and Paris shows and display the TG flash and โEndless Notโ logos in an embroidered banner style that match the larger banners TG used on stage at those performances. They are exceptional high quality digital prints on premium heavy-weight paper stock and are numbered, embossed and signed by all four members of TG.
The prints are presented in a B3 sized black envelope for storage and/or archiving. Only a few art print sets of this small edition of 120 remain unsold at this point

Throbbing Gristle Prints, by gilsteph on Aug 15, 2008 8:55:03 GMT 1, ha ha. If you heard their music that might not be too bad a description!
Anyway for those that havent heard of them, this is a good summary (they started in 1975!):
Throbbing Gristle's confrontational live performances and use of often disturbing imagery, including pornography and photographs of Nazi concentration camps, gave the group a notorious reputation. However the group always maintained that their mission was to challenge and explore the darker and obsessive sides of the human condition rather than to make attractive music. Throbbing Gristle pioneered the use of pre-recorded tape-based 'samples', and made extensive use of special effects to produce a distinctive, highly distorted background, usually accompanied by lyrics or spoken-word performances by Genesis P-Orridge. Though they asserted they wanted to provoke their audience into thinking for themselves rather than pushing any specific agenda (as evidenced by the song "Don't Do As You're Told, Do As You Think" on Heathen Earth), Throbbing Gristle also frequently associated with the anarchist punk scene. They even appeared on the infamous Crass pamphlet Toxic Grafity, with a condensation of their own propaganda parody series, Industrial News

Throbbing Gristle Prints, by bobbymeachamjr on Aug 15, 2008 9:07:20 GMT 1, Wow, a major blast from the past! Although they were before my time I was really into the industrial/noise scene in the 90s. Insane stuff coming from the uk in this genre late 70s/80s with TG, Cabaret Voltaire, SPK. Always loved the album artwork...

Throbbing Gristle Prints, by romanywg on Aug 16, 2008 0:36:20 GMT 1, Saw them live somewhere around Camden around 1980. I remember Cosi Fanni Tutti performed with her tits out. Also went to one of his exhibitions at the ICA where he exhibited 30 different tampons illustrating a womens monthly cycle. Those were the days.

That's Throbbing Gristle. Third from left is Genesis P Orridge, who is now apparently 'pandrogynous'. I think this means he's a bloke with silicon tits.

Did you ever go to any Temple of Psychic Youth gigs that he did with Psychic TV. Used their own and RCA films as backdrops. Absolutely mental nights and heightened to say the least by the odd 'shroom . Todd Browning's Freaks had nothing on those events. ;D

Throbbing Gristle Prints, by fool4faile on Aug 16, 2008 12:25:17 GMT 1, yes, i always liked psychick t v a bit more than throbbing gristle (and chris & cosey a bit more than the before mentioned), all of them definitely had to be seen live ! and although i don't completely get the transformation- thing of genesis p. orridge i have to say i admire his or her radicalism in all things done (never been a member of the temple ov psychick youth though were you had to be locked up for days and paint pictures with every body- fluid available to get in)... but, wizbong, i have to disagree, i know other pictures of genesis p. orridge in the "new style" and it doesn't look "well" by any means, rather ugly...sorry!
