Sheffield-based improvised/psych/out unit. The Hunter Gracchus is a trio featuring Jon and Fiona who run the Singing Knives imprint alongside Syed Kamran Ali (aka Harappian Night Recordings).

1.Artery were one of the most important and influential bands in the UK's post-punk scene, though they didn't sell many records and are often overlooked in pop histories.

They defined the post-industrial outlook that Human League and Cabaret Voltaire adopted. They were the reason Jarvis Cocker decided to become a pop star.
