     Early compatriots of Cabaret Voltaire and Throbbing Gristle on
     Britain's experimental/industrial scene, 23 Skidoo pursued an
     improvisational fusion of ethnic drumming and post-punk dance on
     their few recordings of the early '80s. Named after a mysterious
     Illuminati phrase that appeared in the work of Aleister Crowley,
     William Burroughs and filmmaker Julian Biggs, the group formed in
     London around brothers (and martial-arts experts) Alex and Johnny
     Turnbull and Fritz Catlin (aka Fritz Haamann). Influenced by Fela
     Kuti and the emerging New York hip-hop scene, 23 Skidoo released
     their first single "Ethics" in 1980. For their second, the band
     recorded at Cabaret Voltaire's Western Works with Genesis 
     P-Orridge of Throbbing Gristle helping out on production.

     In 1982, 23 Skidoo released the mini-LP Seven Songs and the
     Tearing Up the Plans EP for the Fetish label (also home to
     recordings by Throbbing Gristle and Clock DVA). After replacing
     their nominal rhythm section with bassist Sketch (who shared the
     trio's aesthetic), the band continued with 1983's The Culling Is
     Coming and 1984's Urban Gamelan. Their varied influences and
     occasionally sublime sound confused many critics and listeners,
     who expected all industrial groups to be as loud and chaotic as
     the emerging Test Dept. or Einsturzende Neubaten. Even after
     disbanding in 1984 however, 23 Skidoo continued recording together
     sporadically during the rest of the decade, and the quartet the
     Turnbulls plus Catlin and Sketch formed their own Ronin label
     in 1989. Though no material from the band appeared in the '90s,
     they did several remixes and recorded for advertisers including
     Nike, Wrangler, and Smirnoff. Finally, in 2000, 23 Skidoo released
     a new, self-titled album for Virgin. -AMG
