A Pagan Day is a 1984 album by electronic music group Psychic TV.
This recording was first released as TOPY 003 on 23 December 1984 as a picture disc, limited to 999 copies. One side was a full color photograph of Carresse P-Orridge as a baby, the other side had text in red on white. It was only available to shops and distributors between 11 am and 12 am on launch day.
All music was recorded on a 4-track cassette machine under the guidance of Alex Fergusson, an original co-founder of the group, with Genesis P-Orridge. A Pagan Day was subtitled Pages From A Notebook as the material was a sketch of the songs, revealing of the process itself.
All songs were written by Genesis P-Orridge and Alex Ferguson, with the exception of Translucent Carriages written by Tom Rapp of the group Pearls Before Swine.

Famous quotes containing the words pagan and/or day:
“Fashion is primitive in its insistence on exhibitionism, which withers in isolation. The catwalk fashion show with its incandescent hype is its apotheosis. A ritualized gathering of connoiseurs and the spoilt at a spotlit parade of snazzy pulchritude, it is an industrialized version of the pagan festivals of renewal. At the end of each seasonal display, a priesthood is enjoined to carry news of the omens to the masses.”
—Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
“My Love in me and I in him,
Conjoined by love, will till abide
Among the faithful lilies
Till day do break, and truth do dim
All shadows dark and cause them slide,
According as his will is.”
—William Baldwin (fl. 1547–1549)
