Biography
Frenetically creative, and playing only by his own rules, Thirlwell has never stopped experimenting and evolving his sound. While his music is most often outside of any genre, it is most frequently described as Industrial or No-Wave. His earlier music is usually quite harsh and distorted, although since Love, his music has become increasingly orchestral and symphonic, sometime sounding like a full orchestra, but is actually only J.G Thirlwell himself, though sometimes assisted by guest musicians on select tracks. His latest album, Hide, goes even further in this direction than Love did, beginning with an operatic piece sung by Abigail Fischer.

Nothing at all. I've never been entirely sure who "I wish I never blew you" was directed at.

Haha, what are you implying popefilter?

If I'm not mistaken he released many of the albums on this page under different names such as Scraping Foetus Off the Wheel, You've Got Foetus On Your Breath, Foetus Interruptus, Foetus Inc, and Foetus Corruptus. I agree it's easier to group them all into one page but this fact should at least be known.

I really love what Jim does. It's the kind of industrial I actually love listening to. (Sorry if I'm being generalizing when it comes to genre.)
