D.o.A. The Third And Final Report Of Throbbing Gristle (LP)

'D.o.A. The Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle' is, along with '20 Jazz Funk Greats', the bands most famous and sought-after album, back in print and on Green vinyl after being unavailable for a few years.

Breaking from the live sound of the previous Second Annual Report, D.O.A. finds the group assembling collages of computer noise (before connecting to the internet sounded almost friendly), cassette tapes on fast forward, looped feedback and tape hiss, surreptitiously recorded conversation, threatening phone calls, and much more, all to a grand alienating effect, the sound of a grey day in a British tower block after all the drugs have run out. Of course, this was the intended effect and the band succeed well enough.
