SUICIDE
THE FIRST REHEARSAL TAPES
14 TRACK BLACK VINYL LP
INCLUDES LINER NOTES BY HENRY ROLLINS

FIRST REHEARSAL TAPES                           SUPERIOR VIADUCT                         Format: LP                            Cata No: SV128                        Barcode: 855985006284                        “On Suicide’s First Rehearsal Tapes , recorded in 1975, Alan Vega and Martin Rev create minimalist aural structures, traces of which would surface on their eponymous  debut album, released on the Red Star label in late 1977. “These songs are not a sketchpad of semi-formed ideas.  The First Rehearsal Tapes comprise an audio diary of two men out in the ether, measuring themselves as evolving individual artists and as a unit who would  rely on inseparability to realize their unique and often confrontational mass in the decades to come. What the tapes also reveal is that Vega and Rev were  compositionally ambitious, capable of melody and form, while resisting definitionas they headed further into uncharted territory.  “The First Rehearsal Tapesafford the listener a glimpse into the creative process of two groundbreaking, true art warriors with their swords and shields leaning against the practice room wall. To understand the absolute brilliance of Suicide’s first album as well as their sonic adventures  that followed, you have to start here with their earliest recordings.”  —Henry Rollins (excerpt from the liner notes) Tracks: 1.
