Release Notes:
--------------
Whitehouse specialise in what they call "extreme electronic music". They are
known for their controversial lyrics and imagery, which portray sadistic sex,
misogyny, serial murder, eating disorders, child abuse, and other forms of
violence and abjection.
Whitehouse emerged as earlier U.K. "industrial" acts such as Throbbing
Gristle and SPK were pulling back from noise and extreme sounds and making
their music more conventional. In opposition to this trend, Whitehouse
wanted to take these earlier groups' sounds and fascination with extreme
subject matter even farther. In doing so, they drew inspiration from some
earlier experimental musicians and artists such as Alvin Lucier, Robert
Ashley, and Yoko Ono as well as writers such as Marquis de Sade.
