RE-UPLOAD: Shriekback - Arena, Rotterdam, The Netherlands - 17.04.1983 (Flac)

 

And another one that should make Dave Sez happy, short but excellent. Thanks to FREDHEADSET for sharing this one on DIME. Excellent FM broadcast.

Recorded and broadcasted by VPRO Radio

Shriekback were a rock / wave band formed in 1981 in Kentish Town by Barry Andrews, formerly of XTC and League of Gentlemen (keyboards/synthesizers/vocals), and Dave Allen, formerly of the Gang of Four (bass), with Carl Marsh, formerly of Out On Blue Six (guitars/vocals) soon added to the line-up. They were joined by Martyn Barker on drums in 1983.

They enjoyed some success on the dance chart on their original Y Records label, and had a string of hits on the UK Indie Chart, and their debut album, Care (1983) was picked up by Warners in the United States.They left Y for Arista Records for 1984's Jam Science, also recruiting drummer Martyn Baker. The album reached number 85 on the UK Albums Chart, and the single, "Hand on my Heart" charted in the Top 60 in the UK. Finding little success, they switched to Island Records for the 1985 album Oil & Gold; Marsh left during the recording of the album, to be replaced by Mike Cozzi. After the follow-up, Big Night Music, Allen left to rejoin Gang of Four, and Shriekback remained a collaborative centred around Andrews. Allen would also go on to play in King Swamp and The Elastic Purejoy. Marsh was also in the band, Happyhead.

After a further album in 1988, Go Bang!, the band split up. Andrews continued working on other projects before re-forming Shriekback in 1992, although after the single "The Bastard Sons of Enoch" and album Sacred City, there would be no further releases until 2000's Naked Apes & Pond Life album.

Both Allen and Marsh returned to the studio to contribute to the recording of Shriekback's 2003 release, Having a Moment. Since Having a Moment Andrews has recorded two albums for Malicious Damage (Killing Joke's original label) under the Shriekback moniker. Film director Michael Mann, was a fan of Shriekback, and used several of their songs in his films Manhunter and Band of the Hand, and in his television series Miami Vice.

Luc Van Acker - Belpop Ketnet Canvas, Documentary - 07.11.2011 (Video)

A one hour documentary about Luc Van Acker, from his early days as electronic music pioneer until today, including interviews with him, members of the bands he joined (Shriekback, Ministry, Revolting Cocks, etc.), some record labels ARs and music critics. The only down side it's the fact that most of it is spoken in Flemish... Features a lot of clips from live performances, including some of the Wax Trax birthday party in Chicago last year. Thanks to S+©kmªÑ for sharing his capture.
