About This Item
Ian North's NEO album, released in 1979 on the legendary indie Aura Records, marries serrated post-punk guitars with North's provocative lyrics. The former Milk n' Cookies guitarist/songwriter and future electronica innovator innovator sings in the first person as a perverted mrderer, JFK's assassin, and an atomic bomber on an album that starts and ends with death. 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. First time on CD worldwide!
