Throbbing Gristle and Mute announce a series of reissues, set to start on the 40
th anniversary of their debut album release,
The Second Annual Report.
On November 3, 2017
The Second Annual Report, presented as a limited edition white vinyl release in the original packaging and also on double CD, and
20 Jazz Funk Greats, on green vinyl and double CD, will be released. Accompanying these releases will be
The Taste Of TG:
A Beginner’s Guide to Throbbing Gristle with an updated tracklisting that will include “Almost A Kiss” (from 2007’s
Part Two: Endless Not). This will be the first time
The Taste Of TG is available on vinyl and will be presented on double red vinyl alongside a CD and digital release.
The Second Annual Report was originally released on November 4, 1977 and is the first album from Throbbing Gristle, one of the most politically and sonically antagonistic bands of all time.
Throbbing Gristle are Chris Carter, Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson (who sadly passed away on November 25, 2010), Cosey Fanni Tutti and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge. Their impact on music, culture and the arts is immeasurable and still felt today.
