You're spot on as usual, Mark. But since you've mentioned Severed
Heads, you might try checking out http://www.sevcom.com . Yes, Tom
Ellard not only has a presence up on the Net, but he has been making
the Severed Heads catalogue available for free (streaming) and
purchase (download) for quite a few years now -- even pre-dating the
the iTunes wave, cutting-edge guy that he is.
I'd agree regarding their visuals. Although I photographed them back
in the eighties, and their visuals were quite similar in style to
those used by Chris & Cosey, Psychic TV, & SPK. I wonder if the same
person/people subbed out work to some of those other groups too.
