A friend of mine is writing a history of shock rock and is interested in learning more about the following: "Are you aware of any experimental techno, ambient or electronic bands that try and induce physical "shocks" through their music--seizures, sickness, etc.? i've got throbbing gristle and that whole industrial lot, plus add n to x. anything you can think of for the LAST chapter of my book, which explores the next wave of shock rock (aural terrorism)." Any information and/or leads would be greatly appreciated...

I recall some of the early releases by Brian Lustmord (familiar amongst the recent Isophlux material) along the lines of his Terror Against Terror project.... from what I recall, Lustmord used super-low frequencies (below the range of human hearing) to produce illness.... (?) I guess I'm not much help. But I do remember this article leaving quite an impression on me (was it in an old issue of Industrialnation?) that Lustmord was quite a badass... spoke lengths about militarization and conspiracy theory. Has Brian softened up a bit with age? :) Aaron
