The LP\u00a0 is pressed on Alien Interzone coloured vinyl and is an Indie exclusive format.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Arguably considered the San Francisco bands greatest work, Red Exposure, the fourth album to feature core members Damon Edge and Helios Creed, was the definitive version of Chrome\u2019s idiosyncratic approach to sound: a projected vision of near future dystopia via an undefinable guise of experimental space rock and punk-tinged alien soundscapes. Here, the band simultaneously draw from the otherworldly noises of their past records, whilst pushing their synthesizers forward into, albeit oblique, pop song structures.<\/p>\n<p>Edge\u2019s vocals are structured more like an instrument than a voice, lyrics painting images of humanities future on the edge of total destruction. As Creed\u2019s guitar work multilayers its way into a completely different aural spectrum, beautiful yet violent, slashing against rhythmic pulsations, loops and experimentations, to create a sound that even today feels beyond the here and now. This distillation of the band\u2019s repertoire seemed to envision a deconstruction of rock \u2018n\u2019 roll, aimed to break past the shell of clich\u00e9 that it would of course eventually come to inhabit. Which is why despite its age Red Exposure remains a record that still sounds like the sonic product of a far-off civilisation, making this disk of new wave nihilism vital for fans of Space rock, Krautrock, Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire and Suicide.<\/p>\n<p>The Deluxe remastered version of this out of print 1980 LP is presented here in a ltd edition coloured vinyl. It comes packaged in a chromed mirrorboard sleeve, contains a large screenprinted poster printed with neon ink featuring unseen photographs of the band, and a bonus track.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Red Exposure =Deluxe= (spacey blue)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":36065,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2325],"product_tag":[2638],"class_list":{"0":"post-36064","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-alternative-rock","7":"product_tag-futurismo","9":"first","10":"outofstock","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"purchasable","13":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/36064","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36065"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36064"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=36064"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=36064"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vinylgrove.nl\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=36064"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
