Diana Rogerson was a member of cult band Whore 156 in the 1970’s.
Dubbed
‘the female Whitehouse’, they later became Fistfuck in the early 80’s.
They were legendary lynchpins in the London underground industrial
scene, alongside bands like S.P.K. and Whitehouse.
Diana went on to
do vocals for Nurse With Wound, Shock Headed Peters and worked
alongside Foetus. She made two albums in the 80’s under the pseudonym
Chrystal Belle Scrodd. They were described as psychedelic, outsider
classics by critics and gained underground notoriety. These albums were
originally released on the highly collectible United Dairies label.
The
new cd, released on United Jnana, is the long awaited follow-up to the
1987 album Belle De Jour. It is a collection of new songs and
instrumentals in her unique style. This recording was made with the
help of Steven Stapleton and Colin Potter (of Nurse With Wound) and
also Matt Waldron of irr.app.(ext.).
Diana also appears as guest vocalist on the new album by the legendary Faust.
