I'm kinda thinking I might not turn off a Nick Cave/Los Lobos knife fight LP myself, but it does suggest a high bar.
Trying to get more precise perhaps....what would be considered in the genre of "mutant disco"? Maybe not Talking Heads but maybe Eno/Byrne Bush of Ghosts stuff? Throbbing Gristle maybe? Cabaret Voltaire? Art of Noise? I mean, there are plenty of eligible contenders for skronky but still beat-oriented music in the post-punk era. Like Factory Records stuff, Level 42, A Certain Ratio, African Head Charge. None of that is like Jeff Bridges's stuff. But it was the '70s, I guess, so, you know, disco or something.

Cabaret Voltaire and Certain Ratio I think would qualify the strongest.
Now here's some doofus disco.

Look at this slooshy pimp.
Here's what I was thinking of mutant disco, mutated brain-floor flavor. Take one a day. Monitor the perineum.

My brain is burning down trying not to buy the Scratch Acid box set I only just ten seconds ago realized even existed.

Box? I thought everything they did could fit on one CD. Greatest Gift, right? I guess someone found some live shows or something?
