credits

released September 1, 1986

A masterpiece of refined electronic pop by Wire vocalist Newman, featuring excentric lyrics and surprising arrangements for chamber music ensemble, “Commercial Suicide” was recorded in collaboration with composer John Bonnar, Minimal Compact’s Malka Spigel and engineer/producer Gilles Martin. This edition includes “Interview”, an original track of 2x12-minute over which Colin Newman monologues ironically about himself and his music.

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über. https://tortue.substack.com/i/140348114/slowdive-everything-is-alive-dead-oceans Daniel Welsch
