BOXCAR - VERTIGO/REVIBED (2021)

 Hello and Welcome Back... New Album Just Released..

Back in 1989 - 1992, one band was making dance music that i loved... They were kinda like an Australian version of New Order... Why they were not bigger, i will never know.

They were Sydney based band 'Boxcar'

Their debut album called 'Vertigo' was one album i cherished thanks to a record shop in Strathfield, NSW that had the song 'Insect' pumping out the store speakers... I brought the cassette just for that song alone.

What i found was an album chock full of dance driven Synth tracks that not only sounded good but every track was a killer...

3 Singles were released but failed to do anything major in Australia, only the U.S pick up on this amazing sound... Singles were 'Insect', 'Freemason (You Broke Your Promise)'(#8 U.S Dance) & 'Gas Stop'(#82 Australia)

Fast forward to 2021

 


 

Today, a new album has dropped called 'Vertigo/Revibed'... Its the 1989 album 'Vertigo' remastered with a few goodies at the end...

I must say, I'm impressed with the sound.... While I usually don't like Remasters because they squeeze the crap out of the sound for the 'loudness' war, but thankfully, not this album... While its still got volume, the synths are crisp & lush and the bass still packs a punch... Outstanding

Its a 10/10 for me...
