Living Legends

Recorded between 1975 and 1981. Originally released on Rough Trade Records. If one needs a starting place to discover how an obscure trio of Sheffield sound experimentalists became one of the founders of industrial / EBM music, not to mention a whole range of artists interested in pushing the boundaries of recorded sound, The 'Living Legends' is it. Conveniently collecting the series of singles the classic trio lineup released on Rough Trade, Legends makes for astonishing listening even today, as alien now as it was then, and perhaps even more so. Compiled in more or less chronological order with a few exceptions, the tracks range from the quietly mysterious to astonishing, in-your-face sonics.
