NEO
 
NEO Quantity in Basket: None
Price: $16.00
Artist: Ian North
Manufacturer: Iconoclassic Records
 
 
Quantity:
 

The former Milk n' Cookies guitarist/songwriter and future electronica innovator sings in the first person as a perverted murderer, JFK's assassin, and an atomic bomber on an album that starts and ends with death.  Ian North's “NEO” album, released in 1979 on the legendary indie Aura Records, marries serrated post-punk guitars with North's provocative lyrics.  Yet North's innate sense of melody, his brilliantly literary lyricism, and outstanding musicianship and production result in an album that bristles with energy and life.  It’s now on CD for the first time worldwide with 2 added tracks recorded live at The Vortex in London in October of 1977!  Includes a -written 4000-word liner notes essay by Ian North's Milk n' Cookies bandmate and internationally renowned DJ/remixer Justin Strauss.  Plus ever-before-seen photos from the original shoots in a 16-page color booklet.  Digitally remastered by Vic Anesini from the Aura Records masters.  “Ian North is one funny dude.  Most of these songs are filled with ridiculously cool and wonderfully stupid lyrics, many of which no one would be caught dead singing today (‘Don't Dance’'s proclamation of not getting the appeal of Soul music would definitely be problematic, ‘Girls in Gangs’ - holy sh*t!).  However you take it, you can't deny the guy has a gift for a clever turn of phrase, his weird subject matter probably being what kept him from the larger stage.  Musically, the tunes court a bit of new wave here and there but, generally, it's hard as nails pop rock - kind of like a less metal ‘Too Fast For Love’-era Motley Crue sans leather gerbil vox and with a more refined musicality.  Pretty f*ckin' awesome.” - Mars Hottentot  EXCELLENT!!
