Suicide - Suicide LP
By the Summer of 1969 the US hippie dream lay in tatters but the cultural influence exerted by New York City would echo loudly through the decades that followed and no louder than it did with the incendiary electronic NYC duo, Suicide, who came to notoriety nearly a decade later.
If dismissive at first, the music press have gone through something of a dramatic U-turn in more recent years with many mainstream publications now regarding Suicide’s 1977 debut as a stone cold classic. It sits at number 39 in Pitchfork’s Top 100 Albums Of The 1970s; it placed at number 441 in Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time; and reached number 236 in NME’s The 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time.
Four decades later, we are only just now counting the positive cost of their influence across genres such as techno, noise, electro clash, goth, synth pop, psych and industrial.
