Editorial Review:
The legendary THROBBING GRISTLE have completed their first new studio album in 25 years, entitled PART TWO. THE ENDLESS NOT. Almost 30 years on since their inception from the ashes of performance art troupe/media guerrilla cell Coum Transmissions, THROBBING GRISTLE'S challenging, expressive, self-empowering manifestos and music are as relevant today as they were back in the bleak mid-70s. As historically important during their active period of 1975 - 1981 as contemporaries Can, The Sex Pistols, and Kraftwerk, THROBBING GRISTLE'S influence on today's music (from experimental production techniques and confrontational live shows to independent promotion via their own Industrial Records label) runs far deeper than they are often credited.
Arctic monkeys are pleased to announce that their new album entitled 'favourite worst nightmare', will be released in australia on saturday april 21. 'favourite worst nightmare' is the follow-up to the band's groundbreaking debut, 'whatever people say i am, that's what i'm not'. The first single from the album, 'brianstorm', is housed in a digipak with gloss black tray. Arctic monkeys will unveil their new material during an april 27 set at the coachella valley music & arts festival in la, and have also begun confirming european festival appearances for the northern summer.
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Pleasantly Dark and Alien
I was mostly interested in this album due to its connection to (the now sadly defunct) COIL, but it proved itself a great album in its own right. Slightly dark and modestly moody, it's perfect music for a dreary winter day, especially if you enjoy casual suicidal ideation.
Rating: - Must Have for TG fans
I've been listening to TG since '79.
If you are not already a TG fan, this may NOT convince you.
It is very good, and if you are a fan, you'll want one of the totemic copies of Pt.2: T.E.Not. Very Accessible. I play it at work.
I saw and spoke with TG in London in June at the ICA performance- what an experience! I picked up my totemic copy (which they autographed) from the recording session performance..I play my non-totemic CD.

Rating: - A synthesis of their respective histories
I am glad to say that TG's comeback album, The Endless Not, is absolutely awesome. There is little new ground covered here, but the overall quality and consistency of the album makes that overlookable. Really, the album moves between moments reminiscient of the Coil discography and the old TG discography. This means that finally, the full effect of some the fundamental TG concepts can be felt... they sound better than ever here, fully realized with modern technology.

Rating: - Not entirely disturbing.
While not as abrasive or shocking or sonically perverse as the TG of the seventies and eighties, The Endless Not is still a great album. I was a little dissapointed at first to not find anything on this album with quite the punch of classic TG tracks like 'Discipline', 'Adrenaline', or 'Still Walking' but the tracks on The Endless Not are just as engrossing and strange as anything Tg has ever done. It may be a little more mainstream but it's no worse for it, 'Rabbit Snare', which is probably one of the ... Read More
Rating:  - Will grow on you
I won't go into all the details.. but pretty much all the reviewers are dead on about this record. It plays more like a Coil disc. I was honestly hoping for more of the original, more dense sound that got me into them. This is very polished at times, and jazzy. I wasn't too impressed with the TG Now, and I was hoping they would lure away from that type of processed sound. The first track is misleading (best track on the record).. I was hoping after I heard it for the rest of the album to follow suit. ... Read More
