Throbbing Gristle
Throbbing Gristle were an English music and visual arts group formed in Kingston upon Hull by Genesis P-Orridge and Cosey Fanni Tutti, later joined by Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson and Chris Carter. They are widely regarded as pioneers of industrial music. Evolving from the experimental performance art group COUM Transmissions, Throbbing Gristle made their public debut in October 1976 in the COUM exhibition ''Prostitution'', and released their debut single " United/Zyklon B Zombie" and debut album '' The Second Annual Report'' the following year. P-Orridge's lyrics mainly revolved around mysticism, extremist political ideologies, sexuality, dark or underground aspects of society, and idiosyncratic manipulation of language inspired by the techniques of William S. Burroughs. The band released several subsequent studio and live albums – including '' D.o.A: The Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle'' (1978), '' 20 Jazz Funk Greats'' (1979), and '' Heathen Earth'' (1980) ...
