Genesis P-Orridge has died at age 70

What a legend. If WATMM has a mourning mode, it should probably be turned on now as none of us would be here if it wasn’t for her/him.

Damn.  Very glad I managed to catch Throbbing Gristle when they came to Vancouver... 3 years ago?  It was one of the most uplifting concert experiences I've had, surprisingly.  Genesis was on a real "love everyone" kick that night.  Lots of gratitude, which was palpable.

Met him once at a Pigface show in the 90s, he was a wyrd one for sure.  Seemed cringy, and those charges of molesting his children always bothered me.  Recently bought Thee Psychick Bible.  Only Chris and Cosey are left. RIP

The pedo-smear was a sad attempt to portray Genesis as guilty of the ultimate taboo, by a Tory govt in its death-throws. Climate of post Poll-Tax riots, post Castlemorton, by right wing anti-fun cunts who dispatched police pay party units nationally to close events, same cunts who brought the CJ-Bill in not long after (Coronavirus mention here recently re rights of assembly).

Ironically, the main work cited was a theatrical but legit video Sleazy did for a proposed track/work (check EHR for multiple sources & The Lyre of Orpheus by C Partridge). I love Coil, but there’s repugnant video still around they did with under age kids in Thailand that is fairly unambiguous. Simply Superior had posts on this:

Was GPO a rampant egotist? Most def. Involved in immature forays into supposedly edgy cultural stupidity & esoterrorism? Very much so. But was a smear campaign run by the sketchier spectrum of the Tory establishment? To the max. Weird thing was they waited so long, hence including the broader contexts above. People forget what a cancer the Tory establishment were/are.

Summary - Hamburger Lady.

After Sleazy moved to Asia, I kinda got the suspicion he might be a chickenhawk.  But I'm not trying to smear the deceased.

this is sensible although i must say genesis comes off as a real piece of shit in cozy's memoir.
