My recent obsession with JG Thirlwell has got me thinking how his projects should be grouped on this site.
eg.
| Quote: | Foetus — Thirlwell's main project... Though popularly known as simply "Foetus", Thirlwell released albums under diverse variations of the name, including: Foetus Art Terrorism; Foetus Über Frisco; Foetus Corruptus; Foetus In Excelsis Corruptus Deluxe; Foetus Inc.; Foetus Interruptus; Foetus Over Frisco; Foetus Under Glass; Philip and His Foetus Vibrations; Scraping Foetus Off the Wheel; The Foetus All-Nude Revue; The Foetus of Excellence; The Foetus Symphony Orchestra; and You've Got Foetus On Your Breath.
Steroid Maximus — Primary instrumental project.
Manorexia — Experimental instrumental project. |
Mainly these have been added to the site (by me 😄 ) and I wondered if they would go under the parent name of JG Thirlwell. His other aliases such as Flesh Volcano, Wiseblood and Baby Zizanie have not appeared (as I am trying to hunt them down) but these are collaborations so would probably exist under their own name.
In short: Should these acts be under JG Thirlwell?

I think anything where he is the main contributor should/could go under one parent. I think we might have discussed something very similar before. This was my best stab last time - http://besteveralbums.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=22292#22292

I think this applies to Thirlwell. Even though Foetus is his main alias, Manorexia, Steroid Maximus and his real name all are essentially him.

I tried, but it was telling me I couldn't do anything and you were the only one to be able to for the next 60 minutes.
Anyhow, speedy correction as always! Many thanks.
