Skin Crime Case Studies In Early Taxidermy Techniques

This is a deluxe 20 x CD cloth bound foil stamped box, including individual wallets, 40-page booklet and 2-sided poster. Edition of 300. ominick Fernow’s Hospital Productions label finally unveil this epic, years-in-the-making 20 CD retrospective/compilation of Patrick O’Neil’s noise project Skin Crime. Fernow has described Skin Crime as “the missing link between European musique concrete, Japanese noise, and the gritty abstract electronics of what became the glory and gory days of ‘American harsh noise” and has cited them as a major influence on his own work, and no doubt a major catalyst in the formation of Hospital Productions itself; the first ever vinyl release on the label was Skin Crime’s self-titled LP. This exhaustive set includes unreleased studio and live recordings as well as early versions, compilation tracks and previously unheard mixes. Safe to say that this one’s aimed at the die-hard fans, but it’s a real eye-opener for anyone into noise or experimental electronics.
