Suicide - Surrender (Limited Edition)

Suicide was the band that refused to die. Mute/BMG present SURRENDER: A COLLECTION by influential electronic-punk duo Suicide. This brand new, remastered collection spans Alan Vega & Marty Rev's forty year career and serves as an introduction to their raw, eclectic and inspiring catalogue. Although the band barely received any credit during their career, Suicide are cited as one of the most inspirational bands of the 1970s, influencing the likes of Soft Cell, Depeche Mode and The Jesus And Mary Chain, whilst garnering fans in Nick Cave, Jim Thirlwell, M.I.A., Spiritualized, Lydia Lunch, Bobby Gillespie and Savages. As Henry Rollins writes: "Suicide made some of the coolest, most uncompromising music ever inflicted on our species. This gathering of songs is not a 'best of' nor is it a 'definitive' all-you-need-to-know compilation. It is an introduction that will hopefully compel you to explore the albums." Presented as a limited edition double album on 140g Blood Red Vinyl in an embossed outer and mirror board inner gatefold, with extensive liner notes by Henry Rollins. The tracklist includes tracks from their classic debut album Suicide (1977) to their final outing American Supreme (2002), plus two brand new unheard tracks.
