Suicide
Released in 1977, the record uses basic drum machine rhythms and a cheap organ to create an oppressive, claustrophobic mood. The results offer a direct reflection of the decaying urban environment found within New York during that decade.
Listeners encounter a series of tracks built on repetition and agitation. By stripping away traditional rock structures, the duo created a document of pure tension that resonates with a cold, jagged energy throughout every minute of the performance.
