This will be one of the more 'out there' books in the series, but we should be able to capitalize on renewed interest in Throbbing Gristle throughout 2006 and into 2007, and on having Drew Daniel as an author: his band Matmos are very highly regarded.
In 20 Jazz Funk Greats Drew Daniel (of the experimental band Matmos) creates - through both his own insights and exclusive interviews with the band - an exploded view of the album's multiple agendas: a series of close readings of each song, shot through with a sequence of thematic entries on key concepts, strategies, and contexts (noise, leisure, process, the abject, information, and repetition). This is a smart and unusual book about a pioneering band.
