Notorious for their early recordings which were exercises in brutal noise, such as their infamous 1985 album Knees And Bones which utilised pneumatic drills, metal percussion and cement mixers as sound sources. Subsequent albums delved into sonic and textural experimentation as the band gradually grew more sophisticated and palatable, however a number of less experimental, commercial industrial albums were released on Wax Trax! in the late 1980s.
The group was founded by Paul Lemos, the group's only consistent member. Most of Controlled Bleeding's released recordings feature two main collaborators, Chris Moriarty and vocalist Joe Papa, who both died in the late 2000s.
Since their first full-length release in 1983, Controlled Bleeding have released over 30 albums spanning several different genres, many of which were released on notable independent labels. Their cross-genre approach combined with the out-of-print status of many of the group's releases is reminiscent of the work of other experimental and cross-genre groups of the 80s and 90s such as Coil and Swans. Nontheless, Controlled Bleeding's sound varies from album to album and at one time or another has contained elements of dub, free jazz, noise, prog rock, sacred music, dark ambient, classical and musique concrète.

In Slaughter Natives owe a debt to this. Also Songs from the ashes.

@999klondike Definitely! Controlled Bleeding were doing in the 80's a lot of what industrial bands would have done in the 90's. A pity that thye are not so much recognized.

Thought this was a Skin Chamber song...

This song is literally on three albums that I am aware of Music for Guilded Chambers, Trudge and Skin Chamber’s Wound. It would be interesting to find out why Paul decided to put it on three records.
