DESERTSHORE
The ‘Desertshore’ project is a 're-imagined' cover version of Nico’s seminal 1970 album first conceived by the late Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson in Berlin 2006. In 2010 at his home in Bangkok, he refocussed his approach readying to record guest vocalists while Chris and Cosey prepared material in their UK studio for his return there in December. Sadly, Sleazy unexpectedly died in his sleep on the 25th November in Bangkok.
Chris and Cosey made a commitment to Sleazy to complete the ‘Desertshore’ project picking up from where they left off just prior to his untimely ing. With enthusiastic and contributions from so many who were close to Sleazy, especially the guest artistes whose work he ired; Antony, Marc Almond, Blixa Bargeld, Sasha Grey and Gaspar Noé, the project is now complete.
THE FINAL REPORT
Throughout their 36 year friendship Chris Carter, Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson and Cosey Fanni Tutti produced many pioneering and acclaimed collaborative works together.
These trio sessions were without exception always very productive; ideas that produced many hours of recordings, sound experiments, research in new performance possibilities, visuals, the ongoing design and building of new and innovative instruments; a constant restless exploration of new paths together.
‘The Final Report’ album has been completed from their final 2009/2010 sessions together at Chris and Cosey's studio in Norfolk. This album stands as the final report; a celebration, a loving remembrance of their unique partnership."

Edited 2 months agoCan someone explain how the "additional (Digital ) bonus album 'แฝดนรก (Faet Narok)'" is actually connected with this version of Desertshore / The Final Report ?
I just obtained a sealed copy of the white vinyl version but there's no slip or reference to the bonus album 'แฝดนรก (Faet Narok)' anywhere inside the shrink-wrap.
When you go to the tg.greedbag website, anyone can obtain a free of 'แฝดนรก (Faet Narok)', without having to prove that you bought the Desertshore / The Final Report album. -
The can’t use the name Throbbing Gristle without Gen, he copyrighted the name in the late 80’s -

Edited 3 years agoXTG are just an amazing band ......
Throbbing Gristle to Coil ..... and all personal project are interesting for ART of Sound.
XTG = Art of Sound vs Sound of ART
Desertshore to The Final Report are just near Perfection of This Art
