This could be the only album that begins with a warning from a professional psychiatrist, Dr. Bart Alberti, who informs listeners that Monte Cazazza is &disturbed& and his music &worthless, a sonic mess.& The former might well be true, but the latter certainly isn't: from his earliest experiments with tape recording in 1978 onward, Cazazza, one of Industrial Culture's most colorful figures (it was he who originally coined the term &industrial music&) revealed a grasp of structure and drama that was all too often lacking in the music of his peers. This compilation includes his earliest singles for the Industrial label (&Candy Man& and &First/Last&), the ridiculously rare new wave masterpiece &Sex Is No Emergency& (which originally appeared on the legendary and obscure French Sordide Sentimental label in 1982), and a selection of previously unreleased gems, including &Rabid Rats& (in which Cazazza recounts with evident glee the U.S. Army practice of using the above to flush out enemy guerrillas in Vietnam), &Mary Bell& (
