Throbbing Gristle were influenced by William S. Burrough’s belief that riot-infused sounds had the power to spark a revolution, incorporating everything from the sound of weeping of children to the crashing of heavy machinery.
Throbbing Gristle originally disbanded in 1981, with a postcard simply declaring that “the mission is terminated”. Band members Chris Carter, Peter Christopherson, Genesis P-Orridge and Cosey Fanni Tutti reformed over twenty years later, in 2004.
The latest in a series of Throbbing Gristle reissues from Mute, the 3XLP release contains posters and will be pressed on limited edition clear vinyl.
TG Now was their first release after reforming, with the 4-track limited edition vinyl originally available for attendees of their RE-TG Astoria concert, in 2004. Souvenir of Camber Sands is a live recording of Throbbing Gristle’s 2004 ATP Nightmare Before Christmas performance.
