There used to be this really great record sale somewhere North of Chicago. Huge tents full of thousands of great finds. I pulled this one out of the dollar bin even though I had only a vague inclination as to what it would sound like. This was well before everyone's grandma had some minimal synth fetish. So I hadn't seen the movie and barring "Me and My rhythm Box" I didn't know what to expect. What I was happy to find is some heavy reliance on the Fairlight. If I ever get to the point where my misanthropy becomes all consuming, I plan on fabricating a water heater, aluminum foil, some pvc piping, and other assortments and living the rest of my life as a robot. This will serve as the perfect soundtrack to that new mode of living. I give myself a few more years before this plan in enacted.Here
One of most fucked up movies of the 80's. Can't recall a thing about the soundtrack. Will be interested in checking it out.
ReplyDeleteIcastico,
ReplyDeleteIt's funny because I have the exact opposite reaction. I don't remember the movie at all. But my mind is a bit broken so who knows.
One of my least favorite (and forgettable) movies from the high school days but the soundtrack is one of my favorite weird assed records.
ReplyDeleteThe weird thing is that I am pretty sure that I actually have seen the movie at some point. It's just something that I have no memory of at all.
