LOS MICROWAVES

The Birth Of Techno (limited red vinyl LP + insert)

Hyperspace Communications US

Cat: HYPSPLP 05. Rel: 27 Dec 21
Coldwave/Synth

Side 1 - Track 1. Thin Ice Side 1 - Track 2. I Can't Say Side 1 - Track 3. Silent Screamers Side 1 - Track 4. What's To Do Side 1 - Track 5. And Ever Side 2 - Track 1. Sniper (live) Side 2 - Track 2. Bride Of Suicide (live) Side 2 - Track 3. My Baby Tried To Kill Me (live) Side 2 - Track 4. My Name Is The Same (live) Side 2 - Track 5. Too Many Humans (live)

This playfully titled release features David Javelosa (on synth and vocals) along with Meg Brazill (on bass and vocals) plus drummer Todd "Rosa" Rosencrans. Side One features five studio tracks, none of which were included on the band's 1981 Posh Boy LP, Life After Breakfast. Three of these tracks were recorded in '82; there's no information regarding the provenance of the other two songs. The records' second side collects five live recordings, capturing Los Microwaves onstage in New York City (The Peppermint Lounge) and Boston as well as at San Francisco's own I-Beam, a venue that often played host to the band. Those tracks date form roughly the same ear, 1980-83. Sonically the songs variously recall Blondie, Flying Lizards, Gang of Four and a far less dour Human League. Importantly, the band rocks, even when it's employing a spare drum kit, solid but elemental bass, and monophonic analog synthesizers. The stripped down aesthetics of the group - necessitated by its minimalist instrumental approach - are nonetheless thrilling. Even if you weren't there in 1980, this'll take you back.
