Formed in december 1981 as a two piece consisting of Alan Rider & Phil Clarke, by early 1984 they had released two high quality cassette albums, and featured in numerous cassette compilations and fanzines worlwide.
October 1984, saw the first vinyl statement by Stress the track 'The Prayer Clock' on the 'Life At The Top' compilation LP. More compilation LP appearances followed, 'Compulsory Overtime' (USA), and 'A Touch Of Class' (UK) to name but two. June/July 1985 saw the release of the first and only LP by 'Stress', a 6 track mini album entitled 'The Big Wheel' on Alan Rider's 'Adventures In Reality Recordings' label (ARR 014).
In their music, Stress combine electronic rythms, sequences, keyboards with bass guitar, vocals, percussion, cut - up tapes, and a variety of acoustic instruments to provide a sound that fuses commercial & experimental elements with a pointed lyrical edge.
Now 27 years later we offer you reissue of this cult with many bonus tracks from the era.
We continue our series in discovering new sounds.
This time we present Hidden Place who have just a new album out.
Their album NOVECENTO" is released on Calembour Records.
Expect an interview with them very soon, but in the meantime you can watch their clip of course...
Re-issue of the legendary debut album from Switzerland's The Young Gods – once ALBUM OF THE YEAR in British MELODY MAKER (1987) – remarkably incredible if you think that almost all lyrics on this album are in French language...
SOUNDS mag (UK) wrote: ‘This is extraordinarily brutal dance music and a brilliant surprise because there is nothing like it in Britain!’ while OPTION mag (USA) said: ‘The Young Gods boldly go where no band has gone before!’
CD1 contains the classic 1987 album remastered from the original master tapes, CD 2 comes with live recordings of a concert at Fribourg's "Fri-Son"!
Limited first edition of 500, including an acoustic Version of the album opener ‘Eternity Regained’! With their 6th album called « im mortelle », the French unclassifiable band unveils an intimistic and very personal part of their soul.
Their trip into space takes us where the reason ends & where the madness begins. Magic, bewitching, disturbing and so sensual, « im mortelle » won’t leave you indifferent. "…Another instance where music fuses around a strong core of elegance (…)
Due to the diligent choice of topic the album gains a different consistency and changes more often colors, you can still recognize the veins that created Ad Inferna music before, and that’s a definite relief in a musical landscape dominated by change. Not only a very fecund act, but also one with total substance, Ad Inferna will amaze you with “Im Mortelle“.
