I mentioned them in the funny music thread because they can be hilarious at times, such as with this track.

Indeed, I've just done a little research on them (or her, as it turns out) and she sounds absolutely fascinating. There seems to be a fairly substantial discography though - where would you recommend that I start? (actually, the same goes for Einstürzende Neubauten, whom I know reasonably well but don't actually own anything by).
I've most probably related this before, but in Manchester, where the Hacienda nightclub used to stand is a series of inscriptions charting some musical history. At one point it sayssomething like 'Einstürzende Neubauten banned from the Hacienda after taking a pneumatic drill to a concrete pillar as part of their act', which I think is rather splendid.
The mixtape is very cool - thank you.
The only stuff I wasn't too bothered by was Gogol Bordello and the punky band with the (as I saw it) John Lydon-esque vocals. But both of those were OK too.
