"Controlled Bleeding was an experimental music project from Massapequa, New York. Founded by Paul Lemos, most of their recordings featured two main collaborators, Chris Moriarty and Joe Papa, who both died in the late 2000s. The band was originally formed in Boston around 1978, after returning alone to Massapequa, Lemos rebooted the project with old school friends Gary Pecorino (organ) and Tony Meola (drums), and released a 7" EP called 'Wall Of China Love Letter' in 1980. This early incarnation played progressive art rock. By 1983, Pecorino and Meola had left and were replaced by new collaborators Joe Papa, a 300-pound scat-singing eccentric, and Chris Moriarty, a neighbor of Paul's who played drums. The new trio's output soon strayed into areas of harsh industrial noise (sometimes mixed with guitar and vocal work). In February 1985, their first full length LP in this style, 'Knees And Bones', was released by Swedish label Psychout Productions. A 2005 compilation CD, 'Shanked And Slithering', contains previously released and unreleased material from that time (83-86) which was entirely remixed and remastered."
