"
And the less you think, the more they like you.
And
the more they like you, the more I hate you."
(from Oral Fixation)
I first heard Lydia Lunch doing vocals with the Foetus Symphony Orchestra back when I was in University. I found her interesting enough to pick up more of her stuff, and soon started noticing her all over the place. Most of the time she appears in samples taken from her spoken word, but sometimes she'll show up in less ... conventional ways. For example, various industrial celebrities have their way with her in one of Richard Kern's films. Be forewarned that her stuff is very, very heavy going - I've had friends angrily make me turn her off. Nonetheless, I recommend that everyone hear her at least once, if only to experience art coming from such a dark, dark place.
