"TBWB is creditable for the clobbering lucidity of the overall design, a quality that allows him to sonically expound aspects of brutality and behavioral coercion with the scientific inflexibility of a laboratory analyst. Rarely have scathing hostility and harsh droning sounded so attractive..."

- Massimo Ricci on "Progressive Lycanthropy" cass.

 

"It's full of great insights and a very entertaining read, yet dense with nuance and informed opinion..."

-William Bennett on "Micro Bionic" book

 

"I really enjoyed the new tape on Banned Production, it is KILLER!  It became my favorite one of yours, got a ton of play until my car started acting funny!

-Bryan Lewis Saunders on "Exigencies 1 + 2" cass.

 

"I always say I don't like noise for noise's sake, but when things are played here this forcefully and with so much care -'intelligent noise,' I could even say- then I'm fully interested."

- Frans de Waard on "Strangelet" CD

compact discs

 

 

 

Thomas Bey William Bailey "Strangelet" CD: an exhaustive and exhausting electronic audio drama, TBWB's first post-Domestic Front release- mastered by Denis Blackham and packaged in delightfully austere digipak, over 50 minutes of new audio [MORE INFO / ORDER]

NOTE: As of the moment, we are no longer offering CD-Rs from the "Domestic Front" project (check the band's discogs page for a fairly accurate overview of what is / was available.) An ambitious attempt to re-master and re-release this material is underway now and may result in an archival "all-in-one-place" DVD or something similar. Numerous 2nd hand sellers (ebay, discogs etc.) should have original copies, as should the original labels if these were released by a 3rd party. Feel free to write here to verify their originality if you're in doubt.
