English edition, hardcover, 292 pages. A relentless and unflinching collection, Domestic assembles the lyrics and texts of Kevin Tomkins-founding member of Sutcliffe Jugend and a key figure in the UK power electronics scene. Raw, brutal, and unapologetically intimate, this book lays bare the psychological terrain of control, submission, and the darkest corners of human desire and detachment.

Divided into six visceral sections, Domestic shatters societal norms, piercing through the polite veneers of domesticity and intimacy to expose both ugliness and beauty beneath. For those familiar with Tomkins’s work in Sutcliffe Jugend (now Sutcliffe No More) and Whitehouse, this volume is a natural extension of his sonic provocations, pushing even further into the abyss of human experience.

This is not a book for the faint-hearted. Tomkins’s writing is as uncompromising as his music-direct, confrontational, and deeply personal. Domestic stands as a landmark text for anyone interested in the intersections of experimental music, transgressive art, and the radical possibilities of language.
