Thee Psychick Bible

Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth, or TOPY, will be remembered as a cultural phenomenon that influenced underground youth culture in the 80s and 90s, popularising tattooing, body piercing, 'acid house' raves and other ahead-of-the-curve cultic flirtations and investigations.

Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth (TOPY) will be remembered for its crucial influence on youth culture throughout the 1980s, popularizing tattooing, body piercing, "acid house" raves, and other ahead-of-the-curve cultic flirtations and investigations. Its leader was Genesis P-Orridge, co-founder of Psychick TV and Throbbing Gristle, the band that created the industrial music genre. The limited signed cloth edition of Thee Psychick Bible quickly sold out, creating demand for any edition of this 544-page book, which will be available in a handsome smyth-sewn paperback edition with flaps and ribbon. According to author Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, "this is the most profound new manual on practical magick, taking it from its Crowleyan empowerment of the Individual to a next level of realization to evolve our species."

The Temple of Psychick Youth has been seen by some as a group of low-minded degenerates and by others as a cultural phenomenon that influenced underground youth culture in the 1980s and 1990s. Here, then, are The Black Book and The Grey Book - the bibles of a young, international counterculture collective interested in the occult, rave, psychedelic drugs and the Process Church. Its iconoclastic leader, Genesis P-Orridge, was known for his performance art and the development of industrial music. Includes a free DVD of TOPY-related material.

A revealing and beautifully open memoir from pioneering industrial music artist, visual artist, and transgender icon Genesis P-Orridge—now in paperback In this groundbreaking book spanning decades of artistic risk-taking, the inventor of “industrial music,” founder of Throbbing Gristle and Psychic TV, and world-renowned fine artist with COUM Transmissions, Genesis P-Orridge (1950–2020) takes us on a journey searching for identity and their true self.
