These releases are listed in (approximate) chronological order. (2) A section listing releases on which Thirlwell is credited as producer and/or remixer, as well as other "Guest Appearances", listed alphabetically. (3) A section listing prior works and upcoming releases with insufficient information about these releases; verified unreleased projects; and as yet un-named projects (including future projects discussed at one time or another by Thirlwell, as well as much-rumored projects). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JG Thirlwell can be contacted: c/o Ectopic Ents.

The same goes for Foetus Products Music, a music publishing company; and Foetus Features, a different musical entity entirely. Myriad other similarly-named entities and bands abound (including a GB-based garage band named Foetus which will surely cause confusion for a period of time). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOETUS UNDER GLASS OKFM 7" Jan1981 Self Immolation WOMB S201 FR OKFM / Spite Your Face Notes: Limited to two pressings of 1,000 copies each (= 2,000 total).

Aside from a test pressing with a white cover and included info sheets, there are 3 other cover styles for this LP. One was hand painted by Steven Stapleton and is generally thought to be an edition of 20 to 40 copies; another is commonly referred to as the "monster" or "sky pilot" cover and is generally thought to be an edition of 500 copies; and the third is commonly referred to as the "burned" or "immolated man(nequin)" cover and is generally thought to be an edition of 500 copies. The hand-painted version exists only due to the fact that there were more records than LP sleeves available at that time, and Stapleton (perhaps unknowingly) created a collectable by painting plain sleeves for the remaining records. Also coming to light is a promotional version, issued between the "monster" and "immolated mannequin" cover versions, which had a plain white sleeve and had 2 pages stapled to the inner sleeve: 1 page of artist info and 1 page of reviews. The RRR cassette re-release is considered an "official bootleg", and the material allegedly varies from the original. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - PHILLIP AND HIS FOETUS VIBRATIONS Tell Me, What is the Bane of Your Life? 7" Jan1982 Self Immolation WOMB KX07 FR Tell Me, What is the Bane of Your Life? / Mother I've Killed the Cat Notes: Limited to two pressings of 1,000 copies each (= 2,000 total). - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - FOETUS OVER FRISCO Custom Built For Capitalism 12" Apr1982 Self Immolation WOMB WSUSC 12.5 FR Custom Built For Capitalism / T.O. 45 / Birth Day Notes: Limited to 1,500 pressings. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - YOU'VE GOT FOETUS ON YOUR BREATH Ache LP Aug1982 Self Immolation WOMB OYBL 2 FR CD 12Aug1997 Thirsty Ear THI 57035.2 US CD Nov1997 d:pop/Blue Noise DRCN 25010 JP Dying With My Boots On / J.Q.

Also listed in one of the Self Immolation newsletters as being a forthcoming release due out in late 1989. As all the other forth- coming releases listed therein are from Jan. 85 to "mid '85", it is suspected that 1989 is a typo, and should read 1985. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - JOHN PEEL Radio Sessions 1982 "Wash It All Off", "Today I Started Slogging Again", "Clothes Hoist", and "Ignorance Is Bliss" were recorded for this radio show in December 1982, which was never released. Some tracks were later remixed and released elsewhere, but "Ignorance Is Bliss" has never been released, meaning these tracks are only to be found on unauthorized copies of the show, which was broadcast in 1983. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SCRAPPING (sic) FOETUS OFF THE WHEEL Anxiety Attack flexi 1983 Supernatural SINK1 JP A red flexi featuring a rough version of that track; almost positively recorded from Dutch radio (VPRO) session. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - VARIOUS ARTISTS Bethel CS 1983 Normal None DE CS 1983 'Hearsay & Heresie' None GB CS 1989?

Additionally, the first edition's label has a clean white background, where as the second edition's label is of a darker white, akin to used paper. The PVC release of the LP includes a bonus EP with the following tracks as taken from the WOMB FGH 12.8 and WOMB UNC 12.7 releases (note that these tracks are also listed on the cover of the PVC CD, but do NOT actually appear on the disc): Wash It All Off / Sick Minutes / Halo Flamin' Lead / Finely Honed Machine / Today I Started Slogging Again The Canadian PVC LP+EP version is identical save for the lack of an insert.

A Self Immolation newsletter states this as forthcoming Feb 1985. 'Reflex' magazine's discography states this was released in Nov 1985. A Some Bizzare insert states the re-release as forthcoming Spring 1986, but it never was actually re-released. Limited to 836 copies (exactly enough to break even), and it is believed all the t-shirts were size medium and large. Incidentally, this is the only release to make the GB pop charts that did not actually have any recorded music included. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SCRAPING FOETUS OFF THE WHEEL Nail LP 1985 Self Immolation/Some Bizzare WOMB FIP 4 GB LP 1985 Self Immolation/Some Bizzare WOMB FIP 4 NL CS 1985 Self Immolation/Some Bizzare WOMB CFIP4 GB LP 1985 Rough Trade RTD 32 DE LP 1985 Pussy Disc 4711 FR LP 1985 Nippon Columbia Co.

Notes: The WOMB FIP 4 CD release was assembled in the GB, but the disc was actually manufactured in France. A Self Immolation newsletter states this as forthcoming Mid 1985. 'Reflex' magazine's discography states the initial release was in Oct 1985. The track "!" is actually the ~3 second cacophony at the end of "The Throne of Agony", and was incorporated into that track (track 2) on the Self Immolation/Homestead CD release, thus when playing that CD the player will indicate there are only 9 tracks. The Some Bizzare CD release is not guilty of this consolidation, and neither is the Thirsty Ear CD release. "Pigswill" is mis-spelled on the Self Immolation/Homestead CD release track listing on the disc itself, as "Pigswell". "Anything (Viva!)" may or may not refer to a girl Thirlwell had a crush on in elementary school, named Viva. In one interview he stated he would serenade her with renditions of Elvis Presley's "Viva Las Vegas." The 2007 Some Bizzare CD release is digipack format, with remastered audio and re-worked artwork. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - WISEBLOOD Someone Drowned In My Pool/Stumbo 12" Nov1986 K.422/Some Bizzare WISE 2 GB 12" 1986 K.422/Some Bizzare/Relativity 88561 8137 1 US 12" 1986 Recordvox WISE 002 DE 12" 1986 K.422 WISE 212 GB Someone Drowned in My Pool / Stumbo (12" version) Notes: The Recordvox issue is essentially the GB edition with a Recordvox sticker on the cover. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - THE FOETUS ALL-NUDE REVUE Bedrock mLP Jul1987 Self Immolation/Some Bizzare WOMB FAN 13 GB mLP 1987 Some Bizzare/Relativity 88561-8186-1 US CS 1987 Some Bizzare/Relativity (promo) 88561-8186-4 US Bedrock / Diabolus In Musica / Shut / Rattlesnake Insurance / Bedrock Strip Notes: Tape issue contains all 5 tracks on both sides. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - WISEBLOOD Dirtdish LP 1987 K.422/Some Bizzare WISE 3 GB LP 1987 Recordvox/SPV/K.422 WISE 003/ DE SPV 098001 CD 1987 K.422/Some Bizzare WISE 3 CD GB LP 1987 K.422/Some Bizzare/Relativity 88561 8136 1 US CS 1987 K.422/Some Bizzare/Relativity 88561 8136 4 US CD 1995 Thirsty Ear THI 57015.2 US Prime Gonzola / 0-0 (Where Evil Dwells) / Stumbo / Someone Drowned in My Pool / Godbrain / The Fudge Punch / Motorslug * / Stumbo (12" version) * / Death Rape 2000 * / Someone Drowned in My Pool % * appears on CD only % appears on Thirsty Ear CD only Notes: Some vinyl copies include a poster entitled "Everybody's Ass Is Up For Grabs", a full-color version of the 'Dirtdish' CD sleeve center artwork by Robert Williams. Tape issue includes above tracks multiple times (minus CD-only tracks). 'Reflex' magazine's discography states the initial release was in Nov 1986. The first GB edition featured the "deluxe cover", consisting of the wings on the cover being of a metallic foil, a cardboard inner sleeve, and a sticker on the cover stating it featured "Clint Ruin SFOTW Roli Mosimann". The first DE edition featured the same cover sans sticker with a soft inner sleeve. Subsequent re-issues on vinyl featured a simple cover where the wings were just a silver color. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - WISEBLOOD Yank 'em, Crank 'em, Don't Stick Around to Thank 'em CS 1987 unreleased WISE 004 VIDEO 1987 unreleased WISE V05 Notes: This release was listed on the sleeve of the LP release of 'Dirt- dish', but was never released because the master was stolen.

'Reflex' magazine's discography states this was released in Feb 1988. The Some Bizzare CD re-issue was renamed MARC ALMOND & FOETUS 'Violent Silence*Flesh Volcano', which seems to be a mistake or perhaps a poor joke, as "Violent Silence" is from a different Marc Almond release. The Some Bizzare CD re-issue track list is: Flesh Volcano/Slut / The Universal Cess Pool / Bruisin Chain / Love Amongst The Ruined / Burning Boats / A Million Manias / Beat Out The Rhythm On A Drum "Love Amongst The Ruined" taken from the 'If You Can't Please Yourself You Can't Please Your Soul' various artists LP (see below). "Burning Boats" credited on the Some Bizzare CD re- issue as being from "The House Is Haunted (By The Echo Of Your Last Goodbye)", (see MARC ALMOND below), and also appears on the the ANNIE HOGAN 'Plays Kickabye' 12"EP (see below). "A Million Manias" credited on the Some Bizzare CD re-issue as being from the MARC & THE MAMBAS 'Torment & Toreros' release, which is incorrect, as this version is the 10:16 version. Suspicion is that it is the "MultiManiaMix" from the MARC & THE MAMBAS 'Torment' 12", but without timing it one cannot be sure. Thirlwell does sing background on both versions, though. "Slut" is a re-edited version of SFOTW's "Smut" from the 'Ramrod' 12" (see below), or vice-versa. Note that on the 'Slut' 12" side 2 plays at 33 RPM; the tracks on the CD are the 45 RPM versions, and in this form "Bruisin Chain" is a re-edited vocal version of the FOETUS ALL-NUDE REVUE "Rattlesnake Insurance" from the 'Bedrock' release, and "The Universal Cesspool" is a vocal version of the first half of "Diabolus In Musica" from the same release (the second half being used on the soundtrack to LYDIA LUNCH's 'The Gun Is Loaded' video). The Thirsty Ear CD re-issue, released 10 Feb 1998, also changed the artist credits to MARC ALMOND & FOETUS, though the title remains intact. The change is due to the added tracks from Thirlwell + Marc Almond collaborations (as opposed to the Almond tracks that appeared on the Some Bizzare re-issue), which are: Love Amongst The Ruined / Burning Bloats / A Million Manias / Beat Out The Rhythm On A Drum Note that "Burning Bloats" is from the ANNIE HOGAN 'Plays Kickabye' 12"EP, (see below) and was titled "Burning Boats" (sic). - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - CLINT RUIN AND LYDIA LUNCH Stinkfist 12" 1987 Widowspeak WSP 14 US CD 1989 Widowspeak WSP 20 CD US CD 1989 Torso/Widowspeak TORSO CD 142 DE CD 19??

Second LP release (RIFLEPIC 1) is a double picture disc. This is an "official bootleg" release (aka an "auto-bootleg"). "Hate Feeler" is actually a cover of the Alex Harvey song "Faith Healer", which also appears (under it's real name) on the 'Male' live release (listed below). 'Reflex' magazine's discography states the initial release was in Mar 1989. After its initial release, Jungle records released 2,000 copies in 1988, and 500 more on June 29th 1996, in the double LP picture- disc format. An unauthorized CD re-issue happened near the end of September 1996, by Jungle, which was almost immediately halted. Of interest is that side D of the double-picture disc can be used as a clock, if one finds clock innards to install on the back side. Unfortunately, side D was also mis-printed during the some of the 1988 and 1996 pressings, resulting in about 1/6 of the image missing. In 1998, Jungle re-licensed the material to Invisible, who issued their own re-release and for reasons unknown did not include the track "Private War/Anything (Viva!)". Ever since the original release, one of the sleeve panels has been backwards (suspected is one featuring Japanese typography, but Thirlwell has never stated which one). - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - FOETUS INC.

'Reflex' magazine's discography states the initial release was in Apr 1990. The Wax Trax! test pressing is frequently spotted with the 2 discs separated, but was in fact a 2xLP pressing. On CD issues, the track "Anxiety Attack" is shorter than the 5:44 duration listed in the liner notes, whereas the CD and CS releases feature the full 5:44 version. The CD version, at 5:09, was edited at the beginning and end, most likely trimmed to allow fitting it and the other tracks on a single CD. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - GARAGE MONSTERS Powerhouse! 7" Mar1990 Sympathy For The Record SFTRI 34 US Industry Powerhouse!

Thirlwell programmed a drum machine and played some sampled sounds live while Simon improvised lyrics, at one point repeatedly screaming "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!" while Jad played tambourine (or similar).

From one source: Allegedly a Lydia Lunch record that was not released because it "sounded too much like Foetus", or something to that effect. As reportedly stated in Forced Exposure magazine - if anyone has this particular issue please pass along the specifics. Thirlwell says, in effect: Lydia and I talked about doing an album of that title. We (I?) started writing some songs, it was around the time I recorded 'Hole' - before, during or after, I do not recall. I remember I wrote an epic song called "Off The Hook" and an arrangement for it but nothing was recorded, just one of those things. Maybe one of the songs she did in the Immaculate Consumptives came out of that, in fact, but I don't remember what she did. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - MALARIA (MAGNOLIA) 19??
