Whitehouse

[Leatherface]

"Birthdeath Experience" is one of the best record ever! :)

[Scat-O-Logy]

Dont like:
Birthdeath Experience
Psychopathia Sexualis
Right to Kill
Twice is Not Enough

Huh?! To each his own but still...

[burdizzo]

Yeah, 'Birthdeath...' is surely one of their best, and I must say, that - and 'Twice is not enough' - are among my favourite Whitehouse  albums. Strange!

Birthdeath is ok if you want silly robot noise I guess. But the sounds didn't really match the manifesto.

I just couldn't get into Twice is Not Enough for some reason. I kinda liked Never Forget Death which is similar but pretty much just for Torture Chamber.

My taste doesnt make sense to me either.

I completely agree! Especially the Special Edition of "Twice...", included the "Never Forget Death" and his awesome "Asking for it".

For "Birthdeath..." this is a Masterpiece!

It's been almost ... three years since I've listened to it

Maybe a re-listen is necessary
*Update:listening to this, and its a lot better than I remember .More detailed and effective.I'll edit my last post,I think I got total sex or erector confused with it? I don't know I remember not liking one of the early whitehouse records

[burdizzo]

Nothing wrong with 'Erector', either. Wasn't mad about 'Total Sex', myself, however - so maybe that's the one you were thinking about?!

Maybe, I don't own it. Maybe I'll download and find out. I listened to most of their records through download before I got a new computer. Only ones I have in my physical possession are the ones I mentioned.

Whitehouse are basically the reason i'm here.... a random mention of them on a blog lead me to YouTube..... HOOKED!

The more I watched/listened, despite my initial "that's not music!!!" shock, the more and more entranced I became.... I still don't know why...

but also, the more and more I watched the vids of live performances, the more of the humour I got. There's a few near the end of their existence, with Bennett and Best flailing around like Elvises.... how can anyone not get that humour? :)


But yes, I need to start exploring the music in album context. Not easy given the prices!

I downloaded a Whitehouse discography (and a Death in June one and a Regurgitate one and an Akitsa one) from a torrents site, some years ago (3?)!!

Ha! That's exactly what I thought! Good for him, though!

Whitehouse discography download link for a very nice price, for people who don't have the chance to have the original collection :)
