"Cock E.S.P. is a band based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The group draws on the most extreme, subversive, and absurdist elements of both popular and experimental music. Recent endeavors have involved showcasing mistakes and equipment failures, as the band began to feel that such unintended sounds had a greater capacity for chaos and intensity than those sounds they actually wished to create. Thus, current recordings are edited to isolate and emphasize these "other" sounds, creating an intricate web of pure noise."
"John Peel brought E.N.T. to the attention of Bill Drummond of The KLF, the two acts got in touch and Drummond asked E.N.T. to re-record a version of KLF's hit single '3 A.M. Eternal', with the intention of the band performing live on 'Top Of The Pops' at Christmas. The BBC however felt that the song was inappropriate for broadcast on daytime television and thus refused to air the track, leading to the KLF boycotting the show. The single eventually saw limited edition release through 'KLF Communications' and won 'Single Of The Week' from both the NME and Melody Maker. E.N.T. also worked on the abandoned KLF album 'The Black Room', but when Drummond and co-member Jimmy Cauty announced the band's retirement, they also deleted the recordings.

The two bands were later asked to appear at the 1992 BRIT Awards, at which they caused controversy by firing blanks from machine guns into the audience, a performance that the NME listed at number 4 in their "Top 100 Rock Moments"."
