Don't get me wrong I really like all the choices, but putting it in perspective: A skateboard is a piece of wood with wheels.
 
I am the Walrus or Hot on the Heels of Love? Tough choice!
 
Come Together or Hamburger Lady? It's up to you!
 
Or maybe you prefer Atrocity Exhibition.
 
DISCIPLINE!! WE NEED SOME DISCPLINE IN HERE!!!

Throbbing Gristle.
When listening to "Revolution 9", some experimental stuff by John Lennon & Yoko Ono, George Harrison's pre-cosmic music works or even McCartney's "Temporaray Secretary", it appears clearly that TG went to a direction that the Beatles only began to initiate.
Would have John Lennon not been killed, we can bet that the reunited Beatles would have go boldly to the same direction as TG.

There's no way to compare them, but I voted Throbbing Gristle anyway because I love them and I wanted to even the score a little.

Haven't heard a note of the Gristle, I think, ... so, no vote.

I actually don't mind the vocals, but I know several people who dislike them too. Guess I'm  the minority on this one.
