Been listening to a lot of Soft Cell lately, and if you haven’t heard their Art of Falling Apart and you like synthpop I highly recommend it – ultra-depressing and incisive lyrics matched up with some quite interesting, underproduced, melodic yet somehow off tunes. Good stuff, completely ignored back in 1983. Only €5.99 from a branch of Saturn in Munich, which was cool.
(Germany is very good for finding these obscure 80s albums at decent prices. Shame I can’t get a cheap P.U.L.S.E. DVD for love nor money, though… oh well, only three weeks until I’m back.)
Anyway, I’m off to Dresden for the weekend. See you Monday.
