Throbbing Gristle
Deluxe 7-disc DVD Collection
Throbbing Gristle is Chris Carter, Peter Christopherson, Genesis P. Orridge and Cosey Fanni Tutti, and the band is finally releasing their much talked about live DVD box set ‘TGV’ on 21 July.
Dubbed the Wreckers of Civilisation by the late Tory MP Sir Nicholas Fairbairn after a controversial performance at the ICA, the band consistently deployed their music as a weapon attacking the apparatus of the music industry.
The box set features 10 full shows of both never-before-seen footage, as well as three more recent remarkable concerts, now available with a variety of newly mastered audio tracks including 5.1, binaural and conventional stereo.
This Collection is made available for purposes of the historical record, rather than as conventional ‘concert’ footage. The shows from 1979-81 were shot on a single VHS hand-held camera, often in poor lighting conditions, reflecting TG’s guerrilla approach to live presentation, technology and documentation.
‘TGV’ comes packaged in a deluxe box with a 64-page book, all designed by Peter Christopherson.
The seven disc DVD box set ‘TGV’ is released on 21 July
