Clock DVA (9 albums)

Here's another collection of early british industrial related albums (my first being http://thepiratebay.se/tor/3508017/8_Test_Dept-album , a set of 8 Test Department albums). This time it's 9 albums by the post-punk and electronic/techno project Clock DVA. Though not playing industrial themselves they were closely connected to the industrial scene, being friends with Throbbing Gristle and getting some of their albums released on Industrial Records. This Sheffield based band began in 1979/80 as an post-punk project, releasing 8 lp's and ep's 1980-85, and being part of the wave of Sheffield bands which made the city famous as a musicians city. Then, they got silent for a few years, until they returned in 1988 with their new sound, inspired by Kraftwerk's man-machine concept, cyberpunk literature and the growing hacker culture (their music video, The Hacker, was dedicated to the hacker Karl Koch (a.k.a Hagbard Celine). This is not an complete discography (for an almost complete list of their releases, check http://www.discogs.com/artist/Clock+DVA ), only the albums I've been able to get my hands on in various ways. This collection contains 9 albums, including 3 of their early post-punk albums (White Souls In Black Suits, Thirst and Advantage, the latter in two versions, the first an 128kbps complete version of the 1989 CD release, the other an higher bitrate, but incomplete version) and 6 albums, singles and ep's of their later electronic/techno works. List: White souls in black suits (1980, 1990 CD release) Thirst (1981, LP) Advantage (1983, 1989 CD release in 128kbps, and incomplete higher quality version) The Hacker (1988, 7'') Sound Mirror (1990, CDs) Bitstream (1992, CDs) Man-Amplified (1992, CD) Sign (1993, CD) Buried Dreams (1998, CD) ------- If you have any of their other albums, which I'm missing, and is willing to upload them, please post a comment with the link to where it can be found.

I've been looking quite a while for such a torrent. Thanks.

This torrent IS being seeded, it's just piratebay that doesn't update the seeder list. At the moment there are 4 seeds.

fisk0, thanks for share. I'm a fan of Adi Newton's work since I bought Advantage as an LP many years ago.
I have "Thirst" on a CD which I bought, and also "Collective".
If you're interested I can upload for you, however due to computer time restrictions a torrent would not be the way to go.
Leave message here
Cheers

Thanks Osmooms, I don't have Collective, but I just got the Thirst CD, Digital Soundtracks and a live recording from 1992 which I'll upload soon, I'm just waiting to see if possibly the Kinetic Engineering video album will finish anytime soon, so I can upload it all as a single torrent.
Do you have any other of Adi Newtons works, or perhaps any of the other Clock DVA-related bands (Like Visions of Excess, The Anti-Group/TAGC)?

Osmooms (2006-09-21)

I will upload Collective tomorrow (late here in Aussie land now) The only other work I have is an almost mint condition vinyl LP called "The Last Testament . It was the final Fetish Records release and is a "Best Of their artists. They include WKGB, The Bongos, Perry Haines, 8 Eyed Spy, Clock DVa, Genesis P-Orridge, Z'Ev, Stephen Mallinder, Bush Tetras, 23 Skidoo & Throbbing Gristle
Perhaps best if we contine by email [email protected]

Great to see that this is still seeded almost a year after I uploaded it.
I can not seed this at the moment, but I have got my hands on A LOT of Clock DVA and T.A.G.C. recently, and will make a torrent of it all as soon as it is all completed, properly tagged and checked for errors.

fisk0 (2007-08-05)

Well, I'm back after a lot of trouble after TPB restored an old backup where all my info was set to some incorrect stuff.
And since my last posting I've got A LOT of Clock DVA and their related bands (T.A.G.C., The Box, The Future, Visions of Excess - and that just a few of them!), which of course means I'll upload a HUGE - 2.90 GB - torrent of it all soon.
