I saw that record awhile back in a local store and nearly bought it, but the vinyl had a couple dealbreaker scratches, so I ended up putting it back on the rack. Will keep an eye out for a decent copy.

Associates - Sulk



The Associates were one of most unique bands of the post-punk era IMHO. They seem to take the experimentation of Berlin-era Bowie even further, and you've got Billy Mackenzie's vocals, which are all over the place. This is their second full length album and often thought of as their best work, though I'd put the Fourth Drawer Down comp. just ahead of this. Really unique stuff.

^Great stuff @ both of you.

Soul Makossa is wonderful.

Lionsmouth, there must be another Associates that is way less cool from the 50s, right? I seem to always run into that stuff.

^That's it, I got my wires crossed, the Associates and Association are like oil and water.


Edit: also not to be confused with the Hip Hop group the Associates...
