Genesis P-Orridge, founding member of cult experimental bands Throbbing Gristle and Psychic TV, has died.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media.

The musician and artist, who had been battling leukaemia for two-and-a-half years, was 70.

With Throbbing Gristle, Genesis helped pioneer the genre of industrial music. In later life, they became a "body evolutionist", proposing a new gender that was beyond male and female.

The death was confirmed by Genesis's daughters, Genesse and Caresse.

In a statement, they said their father "dropped he/r body early this morning, Saturday March 14th 2020".

"S/he will be laid to rest with h/er other half, Jaqueline 'Lady Jaye' Breyer who left us in 2007, where they will be re-united."

They concluded the post by thanking people for their "love and support and for respecting our privacy as we are grieving".
