Diagram Brothers, "Some Marvels of Modern Science + Singles" (LTM)

por Gilberto Custódio

CDzinho com 24 músicas que compila tudo que essa banda lançou, o 1o e

único álbum de 81 e mais um 10" e uns 7" da mesma época. O som lembra

Gang of Four, Fire Engines, Wire, XTC, essas coisas. Eles faziam parte

do selo New Hormones, capitaneado pelo pessoal dos Buzzcocks. Escaneei

o encarte com informações dos discos e coloquei no arquivo.

Curiosidade: O trompetista (Andy Diagram) tbm tocava em mais duas

fantásticas bandas: os Dislocation Dance e os Pale Fountains. Mais

tarde viria a participar nos James.

"the Diagram Brothers -- of the Manchester art-noise family encircling

the Buzzcocks' New Hormones label -- play dissonant weirdness with

lyrics about current events. Song titles pretty much say it all:

"Isn't It Interesting How Neutron Bombs Work," "I'm a Policeman," "I

Didn't Get Where I Am Today by Being a Right Git." - Trouser Press.
