WHOMADEWHO // I LOST MY VOICE // GOMMA RECORDS


Picked up a copy of Stephen King's little seen flick 'Maximum Overdrive' last night. Came highly recommended by a horror nut buddy of ours. It is definitely one of those films you would not call timeless. Made in 1986, it certainly looks and feels like it was done in the 80s. Camp costumes, new wave make up & shoulder pads galore. More 'Little Shop Of Horrors' than 'The Exorcist'. Derided by the media during it's initial run, the same critics now laud it as a cult masterpiece. Guess time does makes things cool after awhile. And AC/DC's album, 'Who Made Who' released as the soundtrack fucking rocks.

Very much like Danish nu wave, art school types, WhoMadeWho, with their new single,  'I Lost My Voice' out on Gomma this month. Often camp, pretty retro but most definitely timeless. Might just stick it on the iPod for the ride home. Check out Golden Bug's remix here.
