Psychic TV 1984年經典專輯重發！！由英國前衛藝術家、工業音樂始祖級Genesis P-Orridge與video director Peter Christopherson在工業噪音樂團Throbbing Gristle解散後共同創辦的英國實驗樂團Psychic TV，與眾音樂家、藝術家合作，在不同時期有著截然不同的音樂內容。
Psychic TV承接Throbbing Gristle的現場噪音氛圍，而後加入更多樂器，在Pagan Day裡，主要音樂創作人Alex Fergusson加入更多優美的樂器旋律，We Kiss裡的吉他聲清亮跇沓，Opium裡異國的吉他音階帶著60的迷幻，不時迷亂地摻點合成鍵盤，到L.A.後電子合成與舞曲鼓聲開始加大，噪音電吉他與電子鋼琴聲優美而神秘，Alice延綿的鍵盤Chord與彈跳的Funk Bass，到New Sexuality回歸工業電子噪音，重複的合成riff和單調低沈的vocal念唱，在Psychic TV的音樂裡，你總能發現所有新的東西，被自由地嘗試與組合，前衛音樂不總是太過癲狂，而Pagan Day會是你開始探索的一趟迷人旅程。

Shortly before Christmas 1984, the core songwriters, Genesis P-Orridge and Alex Fergusson, of underground arts collective Psychic TV quietly released a limited edition record containing sketches and ideas for songs. Some songs would become later fully-realized arrangements, some abandoned and others were just covered in praise of their creator. The record, in recognition of its seasonal release, was simply titled A Pagan Day and would capture the intimate songwriting sessions that were prevalent during crucial time in the bands career.
In classic Psychic TV fashion, rumors and myths surround the albums creation. Most have suggested that it was recorded in a single session over a cup of coffee on a lone 4-track cassette recorder above an old YMCA building in London, though later revealed that the recordings were from various sessions over the course of a couple years prior to the records release. After quickly pressing the songs to vinyl, the record was originally only available through Rough Trade for a few hours on December 23, 1984 and pressed on picture discs, which adorned a photo of P-Orridges first born, Caresse, in exactly 999 copies.
