Massive Controlled Bleeding 10CD/book set expected – pre-orders available now
The period between 1985 and 1988 was the most productive in the long history of Controlled Bleeding. No fewer than 13 albums and 3 split works were released in this short timeframe, starting with “Death in the Cameroon”, and including releases on Sub Rosa, Dossier, and many others.
Artoffact Records is now releasing a 10CD collection of Controlled Bleeding material, “Blistered Bags Of Fodder Swaying: Works 1980”, released between 1985 and 1988, much of which has been out of print for decades. Pre-orders are now available via the label’s mail-order.
The set starts with the tape-only “Death in the Cameroon”, and includes seven more Controlled Bleeding albums, including “Headcrack”, which has never been released on CD. Also included are two Controlled Bleeding off-shoots: the industrial one-off project The Art Barbeque, from 1985, and the Lemos / Papa collaboration “Music For Stolen Icon” from 1986.
The set also includes large-size reproductions of the front and back covers of each release, as well as a longform essay by Paul Lemos. All material has been remastered and restored.

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
