Released in 1985 on Sub Rosa’s \u003cem data-start=\"704\" data-end=\"711\"\u003eMyths\u003c\/em\u003e series, the record reconfigures Serge Gainsbourg’s iconic theme into a cold, ceremonial structure less a cover than an act of conceptual possession. P-Orridge strips the erotic melancholy of the original and replaces it with ritualistic distance, transforming intimacy into invocation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"999\" data-end=\"1417\"\u003eThe B-side, \u003cem data-start=\"1011\" data-end=\"1022\"\u003eSupermale\u003c\/em\u003e, extends this conceptual tension even further. Built around sampled voices attributed to Karol Wojtyła (Pope John Paul II) and Anton Szandor LaVey, founder of the Church of Satan, the track stages a confrontation between institutional authority and radical counter-mythology. Rather than commentary, the piece functions as an acoustic collision belief systems flattened into raw sonic material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1419\" data-end=\"1896\"\u003eThis particular copy corresponds to the \u003cstrong data-start=\"1459\" data-end=\"1492\"\u003erare “reverse” sleeve variant\u003c\/strong\u003e, produced with chipboard facing outward. Printed in black and silver inks, the sleeve presents a rough, tan-brown exterior with a smooth white interior an inversion of conventional record packaging that mirrors the record’s thematic reversals. Only an unknown fraction of the total 5,000 copies were assembled in this configuration, making it significantly scarcer than the standard smooth white sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1898\" data-end=\"2149\"\u003ePositioned between industrial music, occult semiotics, and performance art documentation, \u003cem data-start=\"1988\" data-end=\"1999\"\u003eJe T’Aime\u003c\/em\u003e stands as a crucial artifact of mid-1980s experimental culture where sound, ideology, and physical object collapse into a single provocative gesture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"genesis p-orridge \u0026 the angels of light","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51151648588064,"sku":"LP-GENESIS-P-0000001","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0878\/0202\/0128\/files\/genesis-p-orridge-je-t-aime-sub-rosa-lp-intermission.png?v=1769289002","url":"https:\/\/intermissionbooks.com\/products\/genesis-p-orridge-je-taime-sub-rosa-1985-test-pressing","provider":"intermission books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
