Erratic, experimental synthpop goodness from industrial pioneer J.G. Thirlwell. Deaf sits somewhere between the 60's moog experiments of Jean Jacques Perrey (check out Perrey-Kingsley's The In Sound From Way Out! if you haven't had the pleasure yet) and the eclectic playfulness of GodWeenSatan: The Oneness era Ween. J.G. would later go on to release seminal industrial works through the Foetus project such as Hole (1984), Nail (1985) and what I would consider his masterpiece, Thaw (1988) but concerning Deaf, his work would never be quite the same again.
