Our Take

Ah, Suicide. The band that polarised opinions like no other. The avant-garde duo of Alan Vega and Martin Rev created a sound that was ahead of its time, blending punk, electronic, and experimental music into a truly unique sonic experience. Now, on the 35th anniversary of their seminal album "A Way Of Life," we are treated to a remastered edition that breathes new life into these groundbreaking tracks.

From the opening notes of "Ghost Rider," it's clear that Suicide were not interested in playing by the rules. Vega's primal screams and Rev's pulsating synths create a sense of urgency that is both exhilarating and unsettling. Tracks like "Cheree" and "Frankie Teardrop" showcase the duo's ability to create atmosphere and tension with just a few simple ingredients.

The 2023 remaster brings out new details in the mix, highlighting the raw energy and experimentation that made Suicide so influential. The bass hits harder, the synths shimmer brighter, and Vega's vocals cut through with even more intensity.

While some may find Suicide's sound jarring and abrasive, there is no denying the impact they had on the music world. The 35th anniversary edition of "A Way Of Life" serves as a reminder of their fearless creativity and uncompromising vision. So put on your headphones, crank up the volume, and get ready to experience the madness that is Suicide.
