Lydia Lunch Music
Artist Overview
Lydia Lunch is a self-described "confrontationalist" and that concept has informed all of her many artistic endeavors through the years. Beginning with her seminal early-1980s no wave group Teenage Jesus & the Jerks, Lunch has produced some of the most caustic, aggressive, and challenging art imaginable. She has collaborated with a host of underground luminaries including transgressive filmmaker Richard Kern, novelist Hubert Selby Jr., and rockers Sonic Youth, Nick Cave, and Henry Rollins, among many others. While she's is still identified most frequently as a musical figure, Lunch's primary form of artistic expression has for many years been the spoken and written word.
