i hand screenprinted two t-shirts the other day. i've
already sold one - anyone interested in buying the second
one? the t-shirt size is a large (european size, i
guess.. pretty tight model).. name your price!

thanks a lot !

i was going to just google "silkscreening technique" or
something, but i wonder how long the search would last.

this thread is fav+ anyway, gonna show it to my woman when
she wakes up. she came back from family today and brought me
a great t-shirt. when i saw i laughed my ass off. i can't
post it unfortunately. besides it's joking about some polish
cartoon characters in 666 style, hahaha...

The first real industrial group, the founders of Industrial
Records and one of the most important electronic music
innovators of all time. Growing out of the extreme
performance art group Coum Transmissions, TG redefined music
and laid a large part of the groundwork for all electronic
music that followed.

From their first performances in 1976 to their last gig in
San Francisco in 1981 (recorded and released as "Mission Of
Dead Souls"), they challenged and threatend so-called
"normal", society - denounced from the floor of the House of
Commons as "Wreckers of Civilisation" as the Coum
Transmissions "Prostitution" art show in London's ICA (at
which TG played their third show) came close to causing
riots and set the stage for the punk revolution.

Musically, they were extreme and uncompromising, using
technology to make anti-music, which redefined music for all
time. Their experimentation led them to pioneer sampling and
looping techniques adopted by many of those who came after.

They split in 1981, with Genesis and Peter forming Psychic
TV (and Peter later forming Coil) and Chris and Cosey
becoming, well, Chris & Cosey. However, they came back
together 23 years later in 2004 to plan an ill-fated weekend
festival, which became a one-off recording session in London
when the festival fell through, releasing a limited TGNOW
album of the recordings.
