Suicide - First Rehearsal Tapes
Review by Iustina Gasca Silav
The album First Rehearsal Tapes by Suicide is a raw and powerful collection of tracks that showcases the early days of the pioneering electronic duo. The album features recordings from their first rehearsal sessions in 1977, and captures the energy and experimentation that would come to define their sound.
The tracks on First Rehearsal Tapes are stripped down and minimalist, with just Alan Vega's vocals and Martin Rev's synthesizer creating a haunting and otherworldly atmosphere. The songs are often repetitive and hypnotic, with Vega's lyrics exploring themes of isolation, despair, and rebellion.

Summary by Iustina Gasca Silav
Comments
suicides in their basement tapes circa 1972, experimenting with moog and voice effect. ghostly sound quality, but lots of loops that seem to connect doors and kraftwerk. pure potential energy in this duo, poorly expressed in this tape
