TODAYS PROGRAM WILL FEATURE THE MUSIC.... WELL SORT OF... OK, THE SOUNDS OF THROBBING GRISTLE. The band comprised of: Genesis P-Orridge (born Neil Megson - who messed with the bass guitar,the violin, and provided the band with his creepy, droning vocals); Cosey Fanni Tutti (on the guitars, cornet, and also vocals)and Peter Christopherson (tape loops, found sounds, recording equipment, horns, piano, the vibraphone, and synthesizers), and Chris Carter (tapes, devices and synthesizers).
The band emerged out of Kingston, England, the result of a performance art group called COUM transmissions. They played and recorded together between 1975 and 1981 later to reband in 2004 for a 6 year stint, releasing more albums and performing live. Throbbing Gristle have a huge discography, the bulk of it recorded live in the late 70's in England. Dark, disturbing and generally pretty out there, this is not easy listening music.
