Portion Control – Simulate Sensual LP (In Phase Records) 1984
^Last night I bumped this extremely interesting compilation that gathers some of this enigmatic band's best tracks. One could mix this with Einsturzende but it's not at all as harsh sounding. It's more electro and distorted synth sounding with sparse vocals. Dark industrial cinematic electronic music, very experimental but not so far left that it's not enjoyable. Some of the songs are quite advanced sounding for their age. I don't know many artists who were making anything like this back then so I'd add this is innovative and unique as well.
PC were an interesting group for sure. I used to have some of their stuff but don't anymore. Earlier on, they were a lot more experimental, almost kinda similiar to Rough Trade-era Cabaret Voltaire. Over time they became more of an aggressive EBM group akin to early Nitzer Ebb though I think they were doing the dance stuff a couple years before NE had any tracks on wax.
