Here's a great (and totally obscure) 1980's record. Seems to build on the mid to late 1970's power pop formula, and adds some subtle 1980's touches to it - ie : this isn't crap technology worship à la Human League, but this isn't cartoonish roots/retro Rock worship à la Fleshtones either. Good driving songs with excellent guitar soloing on top, sparse use of keyboards (used mostly for atmosphere), but these aren't proudly exhibited and rammed down your throat.. I don't know, it's just great - by the time the 4th song ended I was already hooked. Catchy, inventive, with a nice modern yet organic sound which leaves much space to guitars.. I wish there were more 1980's stuff as good as this.
Untamed Underground Hippie Psychedelic New Wave Scarcity This rarity is a treat for anyone collecting basement underground private rock from the early 1980’s. Side One is straight forward melodic rock with double-tracked guitar feedback and icy keyboards, consistently good. The vocals have a cool underground vibe throughout. Side Two has more variety with some of the best songs. The industrial “This Is The Machine Age”, the haunting vocals and dirge-like melodies in “In Control” and the slow burning blazing guitar rocker “The Gold And Glittering Sea”.
Here, at Ezhevika Fields, I'm providing information & listening preview samples of lost albums from the past. My only aim is to promote real art & music for some reasons currently unavailable according to my sources. If you are the artist or label & would like the link to be removed just contact me & it will be done.
I'd like to thank all original uploaders; collectors sharing music giving us the unique possibility to explore the culture. Thank you!
