Our Take

THROBBING GRISTLE's "20 Jazz Funk Greats" is a sonic rollercoaster that defies traditional genre boundaries. This album is a wild ride through a carnival of electronic experimentation, industrial noise, and avant-garde jazz influences. From the dark and brooding atmosphere of "Hot on the Heels of Love" to the frenetic energy of "Convincing People," THROBBING GRISTLE keeps listeners on their toes with unexpected twists and turns.

The band's fearless approach to music-making is evident in every track, as they fearlessly blend electronic beats with abrasive guitars and haunting vocals. Tracks like "Tanith" and "Exotica" showcase the band's ability to create hypnotic grooves that are equal parts unsettling and irresistible.

Despite its title, "20 Jazz Funk Greats" is far from your typical jazz or funk album. It's a challenging listen that demands repeated spins to fully appreciate its depth and complexity. THROBBING GRISTLE may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those willing to take a plunge into the avant-garde, this album offers a rewarding experience unlike anything else out there.

In conclusion, "20 Jazz Funk Greats" is a bold and daring statement from THROBBING GRISTLE that cements their status as pioneers of experimental music. It may not be easy listening, but for those brave enough to dive in, it's a journey well worth taking.
