This collection introduces Genesis (Psychic TV, Throbbing Gristle) as a thoughtful innovator and irreverent provocateur with over two decades of poetry.
Staples like Bauhaus and Fields of the Nephilim and “dance Goth,” “Goth rock,” and “Goth metal.” Plus Nick Cave, Diamanda Galas, and Einstüzende Neubauten.
The first track, Sheep On Drugs’ “X-Lover (critter remix),” is worth the price of the CD. The other tracks range from long, plodding numbers to dancy ones.
Slightly more gentle than what I’m used to with Genesis P-Orridge, with the exception of “Mother Jack (A Children’s Story)”. Trip Reset will straighten you out.
Furnace is sinister, menacing, and not afraid to grab your neck and hurl you through a window of perception in hopes that you’ll cut your line of sight.
