This is a fine example, with the record in near mint condition, having only been played once by myself, with a very light stylus arm. A superb album to introduce anyone to the original 'industrial' sound of Manchester. For anybody new to TG here is a good intro from the TG wikipedia: Their confrontational live performances and use of often disturbing imagery, including pornography and photographs of Nazi concentration camps, gave the group a notorious reputation. However the group always maintained that their mission was to challenge and explore the darker and obsessive sides of the human condition rather than to make attractive music. Throbbing Gristle pioneered the use of pre-recorded samples, and made extensive use of special effects to produce a distinctive, highly distorted background, usually accompanied by lyrics or spoken-word performances by Genesis P-Orridge.
