Class Info-Inside,MLP,1983,Canada



Here's one of the rarest minimal synth gems.Copies are sold on Ebay from 400 to 700 US $!

Amazing and simply weird record of synth-pop that sounds like a mix of Fad Gadget and Soft Cell but kinda lo-fi and dirty with a sullen Andy McCluskey-type on vocals. He even mixes some rockabilly guitar kinda like Electronicat into one of the five perplexing electro pop cuts here. A shame this never got signed to a larger label, this 5-song EP with a pressing of 500 with fewer circulated is the only known document of this Winnipeg, Canada project from 1983 released on local (possibly their own) Classified Records.
