VOICE FARM
The World We Live In
1982 U.S. pressing
A wonderfully weird and super dark #80s #synth album gets last spin of the night.
A bit of Depeche Mode, Gary Numan, John Foxx, Psyche, and Visage; all thrown into a blender to make a delicious concoction of darkness.
I can listen to these types of records til the cows come home. Even the ones with mixed results are albums I fully enjoy.
If I was born ten years earlier than I was, these types of records would have made up the cornerstones of my diet in the early #80s .
This particular one has odd but interesting production choices. It was only after listening to it in headphones did I FULLY appreciate what they’re doing here.
They have remained active over all these years, but nothing touches this first album. So friggin good.
Love this record.
