Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

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.

Limited ed. of 999 signed and numbered copies.
