That CDr contains rare and unreleased tracks mixed and mastered by Norscq.

The Grief - Huis Clos

12" + LP
Label : Les Nourritures Terrestres, France, 1987
Ripped by paphio23


"Huis Clos" is a double vinyl boxset that saw The Grief becoming more experimental ; it contains minimal and repetitive tracks as well as more rythmic and even danceable ones.
The "Huis Clos" master tapes were accidentally erased and these recordings have never been rereleased on CD (only two tracks were re-recorded for the "Au-Delà" CD - posted here a few months ago).
Norscq is selling the last copies of "Huis Clos" original boxset on his website. Click on the NORSCQ's O and enjoy the sound of vinyl !


Tracklist :

A. Bloodthirsty Bessie (Strangler One) (6:33)

The Grief - Au-Delà

CD

Label : Dancetaria, France, 1990


French band The Grief has not been totally forgotten, as compilation CDs of archive material were recently released, but they certainly miss the recognition they deserve. Contrary to many industrial bands whose music turned more accessible if not commercial, The Grief belongs to the category of artists who followed the opposite way. Beginning with tapes of dark synth-pop, their music developped in both danceable and more experimental music. The best example of that double orientation is the brilliant boxset "Huis Clos", a double vinyl that has never been rereleased on CD – the master tapes were accidentally erased.

"Au-Delà", their first CD, is a compilation of tracks taken from previous releases re-recorded or remastered by Norscq. It presents the first period of the band.

Norscq, ex-member of The Grief, is selling on his website the last copies of long-time deleted records by The Grief, including the "Huis Clos" boxset :
