Tribute to NEU
Groenland 149IE – 2 LP set on limited TRANSPARENT vinyl for Record Store Day 24
Their influence is widespread, international, continued. NEU! paved the road ahead, created a model of forward propulsion away from hidebound rock cliches. Which is why the NEU! Tribute volume is so especially appropriate. They show how much there is for subsequent generations to unpack in NEU!, how much is buried, implied in their sound.
And so, The National pull back and reveal the latent colours, rhythmic potentials and mental freeways of Im Gluck. Fink honours the beautiful, lapping waterscape of Weissensee. Mogwai and Man Man acknowledge the road much travelled laid by Super. Alexis Taylors 4+1 = 5, enhances Rothers melancholia on “Wave Mother” while Stephen Morris and Gabe Gurnseys remix of Hallogallo is acid-tipped, machinic, dripping with robot sweat. Yann Tiersens remix of Lieber Honig plunges deep down into the waters atop which it originally floated, Idles tear up Negativland` inside out, exposes and rearranges its tangled wires and workings. Finally Guerilla Tosss Zum Herz and They Hate Changes version of After Eight are salutes from a band whose members were unborn in NEU!s heyday.
NEU!, fr immer. NEU! forever.
