Fire Engines -- Aufgeladen Und Bereit Fur Action Und Spass LP
Original 1981 US release on Fast Product America Records (catalog # FPA 002).Debut Fire Engines American release, smart and aggressive post-punk. This pressing has a lot of overlap (but some different songs) with their classic UK album Lubricate Your Living Room, which is listed on The Wire's "100 Records That Set The World On Fire (While No One Was Listening)".
Produced by Bob Last
mixed at Castlesound, Scotland 1980/81
recorded at Wilf Smartie's 1980
manufactured and distributed by Rough Trade Inc.
The group's two enigmatic albums have a lot of overlap: the American release with the German title adds two of the band's catchier numbers: the punk-country-flavored "Candyskin" (with ridiculously incongruous strings) and "Everythings Roses." It also replaces the tedious "Lubricate Your Living Room Pt. 2" with the more exciting "Meat Whiplash." Using electric guitars without regard to typical pop traditions, the abrasive but ruggedly handsome Fire Engines — a Scottish blend of the Contortions and early Television — will poke and scratch their way into your heart if you let them.
Tracks:
