Throbbing Gristle''s unprecedented alignment of collage, propaganda, and noise even spawned an entire genre. This 1978 full-length (originally the third release on the group''s Industrial label) was their uncharacteristically accessible electro-pop album. It''s survived rather well--of note are the pleasantly monotonous, noisy synth-pop of "What a Day," the wholly improvised two-tracks of "Discipline," and the playful, ambient "Exotica," a tribute to Martin Denny that prefigures hipster cocktail culture by two decades. The group wasn''t only boundary-pushing, they had a sense of humor (easily glimpsed in the cover art) that''s sorely lacking in the industrial music created since Throbbing Gristle''s demise in the late ''70s. --Mike McGonigal If You Enjoy "20 Jazz Funk Greats (CD)", May We Also Recommend:
