Episode 14: Process and Industry

On this episode  a discussion with the writer Alexei Monroe on the history, context and political desire of industrial music. From Throbbing Gristle to Laibach we discuss the divergent paths of British and Yugoslavian groups and more recent iterations of their aesthetic. Finally, we discuss the sound and visual art group Autopsia, the subject of Alexei's latest book and an exhibition at London's Horse Hospital from November 19th to 26th.
