Our Take

In the dark and twisted world of Lydia Lunch, Queen of Siam reigns supreme – and boy, does she reign with style. This red cassette release of her iconic album is a slice of punk-rock heaven, dripping with attitude and edginess that will make your hair stand on end.

From the opening track "Mechanical Flattery," Lunch's distinctive vocals cut through the noise like a razor blade, commanding attention and holding it captive. The way she spits out lyrics with a snarl and a smirk is nothing short of mesmerizing – a true queen of the underground music scene.

Tracks like "Atomic Bongos" and "Tied and Twist" showcase Lunch's ability to blend punk, jazz, and avant-garde influences into a sound that is uniquely her own. The raw energy and rebellious spirit of her music are impossible to ignore, grabbing you by the collar and never letting go.

With its fiery red cassette and bold cover art, Queen of Siam is not only a feast for the ears but a feast for the eyes. Lunch's fearlessness and creativity shine through in every aspect of this release, cementing her status as a true icon of the alternative music world.

So, if you're looking for a musical thrill ride like no other, look no further than Lydia Lunch's Queen of Siam. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Lydia Lunch

Lydia Lunch is a force of nature in the world of music. With a career spanning over four decades, this New York avant-garde artist has carved out her own niche in the industry, defying categorisation at every turn. From her early days as a founding member of the No Wave scene in the late 1970s, to her collaborations with artists such as Nick Cave and Sonic Youth, Lunch has always been unapologetically herself. Known for her raw, confrontational lyrics and aggressive vocal delivery, Lunch's music is not for the faint of heart. Her confrontational approach is matched only by her uncompromising attitude towards the music industry, making her a true punk icon in every sense of the word. With a discography that spans a wide range of genres, including punk, spoken word, and experimental noise, Lunch has never been one to stick to one sound. Her live performances are a whirlwind of energy and chaos, leaving audiences simultaneously exhilarated and exhausted. Despite her status as an underground legend, Lunch has never shied away from the mainstream, collaborating with a diverse range of artists and filmmakers. Her influence can be felt in the work of everyone from PJ Harvey to Lana Del Rey, proving that her impact on the music world is as relevant as ever. In a world of manufactured pop stars and cookie-cutter hits, Lydia Lunch stands out as a true original. Her music may not be for everyone, but for those willing to take the plunge into her dark, twisted world, the rewards are endless.
