Fetish Records was a British independent record label. Its artist roster consisted of largely early industrial, experimental, and post-punk groups.[1] It was also a home to the early works of graphic designer Neville Brody, who created artwork for releases as art director for the label.[3]

History

[edit]

Rod Pearce founded the label in 1978 and reissued Throbbing Gristle's debut release The Second Annual Report after its initial pressing on the group's own Industrial Records had sold out.[1] Fetish's final release was the compilation album The Last Testament in 1983, which featured a sleeve note written by Jon Savage.[2]
