Artist description Early 80s Alternative band. Started off very Industrial/experimental, but, towards the end, acquired a more Electronic sound. "People forget but the whole idea of what the Sex Pistols started in 1976 was not just rock - although that is a perfectly honourable aim - but something much darker, much more dangerous."
