Suicide: 'Alan Vega and Martin Rev', LP, Vinyl, Ze / Island Records, 1980
Suicide was an American musical duo composed of vocalist Alan Vega and instrumentalist Martin Rev, intermittently active between 1970 and 2016. The group's pioneering music utilized minimalist electronic instrumentation, including synthesizers and primitive drum machines, and their early performances were confrontational and often ended in violence
Suicide: 'Alan Vega and Martin Rev' is the second studio album by the American band Suicide. It was produced by Ric Ocasek of The Cars for Ze Records in 1980. The godfathers of no wave use bits of punk, post-punk, and disco, connecting them all through attitude. In this album, you can hear the roots of new wave, industrial, and techno.
This is the orginal Ze Records / Island Records, West Germany release from 1980.
