S.o.t.D. - United – Throbbing Gristle

United – Throbbing Gristle

Among the first things I ever heard from this seminal group.

S.o.t.D. - Exotika (remix) – Chris & Cosey

Exotika (remix) – Chris & Cosey

I was super bummed growing up in a city that no acts of interest ever came to on tour, and then C&C came there and I was too young to get in. On the tour for this album I was old enough and had enough money to go to Toronto to see them.

S.o.t.D. - Hazey Daze – Chris & Cosey

Hazey Daze – Chris & Cosey

Of the three projects that rose from the ashes of Throbbing Gristle, Coil was definitely my fave. PTV just veered into weird cult territory too often for me, but Chris & Cosey I liked a lot.

Chris & Cosey played in the usually overlooked by touring acts city I grew up in in 1985. Desperately wanted to go, but I was underage and couldn’t get into the club. What made it even worse was finding out later that the unknown group that opened, Hell ‘O’ Death Day, was none other than misters Ogilvie and Crompton of Skinny Puppy. I’m still bummed out that I missed it.

S.o.t.D. - Distant Dreams – Throbbing Gristle

Distant Dreams – Throbbing Gristle

A rather melodic and atmospheric track from the seminal TG, who were more purveyors of challenging and disturbing music.
