this band is pretty good, mm-kay (dig the giant HTML page, v old school, black background). all this talk of throbbing gristle makes me want to throw them in the mix. I have the Jamahiriya album, which is "acid surf" at its finest according to the lone Amazon review. The stuff runs on and drones, almost, with mucho reverb and tribal chanting, but it's actually good, too. Kind of an earthy industrial feel. Evidently they've had reunion tours. Per Wikipedia, Jamahirya was Omar Kaddafi's word for his "state of the masses" in Libya. well, whatever.
