    The Endless Not is ultimately a testament to getting it right, even after a lengthy separation, and proves that getting old doesn't mean that you have to suffer loss of potency.

    The Endless Not features some of the subtlest songwriting of TG's career, playing that knot of tension for all it's worth and all the more disturbing for how pensive and restrained it feels.

    Great album though this is in it's own right, the failing of 'The Endless Not' is that it just sounds like it's happy to play safe. No shocks, no surprises... and , sadly, none of what made TG arguably, together with the Sex Pistols, THEE most important force in the evolution of modern popular music.

    Throbbing Gristle's last studio album is certainly one of their best and it's among the finest examples of XXIst century post-industrial music. Highly recommendable. An excellent introduction to TG as well.… Expand
