From the album TRIUMVIRATE:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWo7TiiHmw0Chris and Cosey are the only members you'll likely hear any new music from. Sleazy is dead and P-Orridge almost died earlier in the year. She survived lung surgery but has continuing health problems. I met Sleazy not long before he died and he signed my Threshold Houseboys Choir ticket, but I most probably crumpled it in my pocket and threw it away the next day C&C keep cranking it out and Factory Floor are worthy collaborators. I saw them opening for **** Buttons when they were just getting started, and later with Cold Cave. Both times they made the headline acts look lackluster by comparison. Cosey has a pacemaker and has issues with playing live at loud volumes, so live appearances are rare. Go see her if you get the chance, since there won't be many more of them in the future.

Thanks for the update and info... I am sorry to hear of the demise/travails of some of the Throbbing Gristle principals; I was never a huge listener of Industrial/Experimental music like this, although Art Of Noise had a few noteworthy pieces - I came to appreciate Throbbing Gristle/Chris & Cosey more and more tho', through some friends of mine who worked at an Indie/Alternative Radio Station (CJSR FM88) in Edmonton, Canada. My taste(s) in the 'Industrial' music spectrum at the time generally leaned more toward the Rock stylings of KILLING JOKE, RED LORRY YELLOW LORRY, and some NEW MODEL ARMY... It was a nice surprise finding some newer material like this and I certainly hope to follow your suggestion and see them in the near future: retirement looms for me and I might as well put my pension - or part thereof - to some positive end!
A real musician who actually had talent. George Harrison
An album ahead of its time (1960) from one of my all-time favourite Jazz artists that portended Eric Dolphy's later tour-de-force OUT TO LUNCH in 1964! Not my usual Sunday morning music, but it just seems somehow appropriate this morning...!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAkXNfUh-iQ

I've also been playing a lot of Sisters of Mercy during down time, because what's more appropriate for middle school than listening to vampire wannabes growl about empire, guns, and methadrine?
