Actually "Softness" is the B-side to "I Confess", a
solo single by a Raincoats-unrelated lass on
Industrial records. It's an odd single in that it's
not exactly what one would expect from Throbbing
Gristle's label. The a-side was kind of tin pan alley
sounding ala Vic Godard's later work, but "Softness"
was very disco-inspired with nice synths, I can see it
fitting in this comp very well. If I remember
correctly, Genesis P. Orriage and/or Alex Fergusson
had some kind of hand in writing or playing on it.
Unfortuantely I can't check as I gave the single away
in a fit of generosity to a friend who wanted it (Hi
Dre!) but if he is reading this maybe he can set the
record straight...
