First, while I didn't know who he was, but it seems obvious I should've. Sad to know he won't get to do this thing no more.. But. Can anybody give me more background on this pic? It's probably related to Throbbing Gristle, but I know not.. thanks.
That pic is from the band Coil. Coil was the longest running band that Peter/Sleazy was in (22-23 years.) He formed Coil with his longtime partner John Balance who died in 2004 in a home accident.

Truly sad news. From brainwashed.com: Peter Christopherson wrote, on July 31, 2010, in response to his interview in The Quietus: "we are all only temporary curators of our present bodies, which will all decay, sooner or later. In a hundred years or so ALL the humans currently alive will have died. I take great comfort in knowing, with certainty, that thing that makes us special, able to enrich our own lives and those of others, will not cease when our bodies do, but will be just starting and new (and hopefully even better) adventure... If we don't get to meet in this Life, maybe in the next you can buy me a beer! ,-)"
