Previously featured in the TG Berlin box set-which sold out in less than a month-this release captures Throbbing Gristle's unforgettable New Year's Eve performance, part of a specially curated series of live events at Berlin's Volksbühne in 2005 and 2006. The setlist included a preview of five tracks from their first album in 27 years, Part Two: The Endless Not-which was released several years later. Fans were also treated to TG's first encore in 25/26 years, which included iconic songs like 'Convincing People', 'Slug Bait', and 'Hamburger Lady'-what an encore! Formed in 1975, Throbbing Gristle - Chris Carter, Cosey Fanni Tutti, Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (1950-2020) and Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson (1955-2010), fully delivered on punk's failed promise to explore extreme culture as a way of sabotaging systems of control. Their impact on music, culture and the arts has been immeasurable, and still felt today across music, film, theatre, and fine art.
