"The Social Registry is proud to break your bones with I.U.D. -- Lizzi Bougatsos of Gang Gang Dance's (vocals, percussion) new project. Teaming with Sadie Laska of Growing and Extreme Violence (the duo is known here as Mr. Egglesby and Lil' Pickle -- they have different names for each release), The Proper Sex is a downright brutal industrial clusterfuck that's sure to fog the glasses of experimental music nerds and provide the catalyst for many a record store argument. Put The Boredoms, Einstürzende Neubauten, Meat Beat Manifesto, Tribe 8, Front 242 and some black metal tropes in a blender and then serve chilled at a party hosted by hyper-feminist vampires and you're getting close to the sound on this one. Recorded at Vacation Island Studios by Matt Boyton AKA Professor Funkenstein, The Proper Sex is creepy, relentless and (most of all) extremely fascinating. It's a varied listen that reflects its influences and cover art -- which mimics Sparks -- to a stunning effect. Like Gang Gang Dance, these rhythms are already cemented in a listener's head. It's just that this journey might be a descent into the inferno rather than up to the heavens." Includes poster of a naked horse-woman.
