"Scotland's Stretchheads were formed in 1987 by Andy Maconald (guitar) and Phil Eaglesham (vocals), with Steven MacDougall and Richie Dempsey joining on bass and drums. The band wore asbestos firewear, gas masks, flashy shirts, and balaclavas on stage, and blossomed after support slots with Happy Mondays, The Wonderstuff and The Shamen. Their debut album 'Five Fingers, Four Thingers, a Thumb, a Facelift, and a New Identity' followed in 1988. Touring Europe with Holland's 'Revenge Of The Carrots' and old colleagues 'Dog Faced Hermans', the group split up in 1992, but not before recording a session for John Peel."

"Test Dept is an English industrial music group that was one of the most important and influential of that scene's earliest acts. Particularly notable for their complex and powerful percussion, the band used unconventional instruments such as scrap metal and factory machinery for '...sophisticated sound-collages and helter-skelter momentum of cyclical rhythms...'"
"Voice of Eye is a New Mexico based ambient experimental duo whose members are Bonnie McNaim and Jim Wilson. Their sound is one that blends electronics, drones, and world music, particularly with a Middle Eastern overtone, and tends to evoke a shamanistic quality. Many of their instruments are home-made or heavily modified, with a style that has been described as 'largely indescribable, but totally inviting'."
