Also C/D Body Clock/Skin Chamber, etc.
I actually have to go look up titles cuz all or most of my stuff is in storage.
I loved the story that jarboe of swans told about going out to long island in the 80's to work on something with C.B. and being stunned by these Vinny Barbarino dudes in track suits who recorded in the attic of their family home. Not your average hipsters. And one of them was a school teacher. Same as Bob Pollard, only I don't think that GBV ever had songs about slaughtering prostitutes.

Whoa. Wait a minute. I grew up on Long Island and this sounds like a substitute teacher I had once.

I used to like Skin Chamber a bit, kind of similar to Godflesh wasn't it but more metal-sounding? I wouldn't say it was classic by any means.

I also like Hog Floor. They have lots of comps that collect unissued stuff. Songs From The Drain is another good one.
I like the Trudge album too. More industrial.
And the early stuff is great if you like noise. I don't know if Swallowing Scrap Metal is on cd or not.

RIP Chris Moriarty, old skool CB member. He hadn't worked with Lemos in CB for a few years (I gather), but they had recently been recording material together.

RIP! I dug your craziness, Chris!

i wish i could YSI the seriously harsh noise track that cuts off when lemos' wife starts yelling at him about how he's being too loud.

this is a severely underrated band across all iterations. Can You Smell the Rain Between is such an engrossing, meandering trip...goth-y soundscapes, industrial dance, skronk jazz, all in one...just a terrific record

ty for bump
my faves are Core (wild squiggly almost-prog), Between Tides (soothing washes of noise), and yeah maybe Hog Floor because it's an overview of styles
I need to check that one you mentioned out. I see they have some stuff on Bandcamp, wish there was more!
