- CLASSIC ALBUM OF THE WEEK
- VON LMO "Future
Language" 1981
(USA)
- Some albums are in a
class all by themselves. The first album by Von LMO is usually
considered to be "no wave punk", but it's really more like heavy metal
space jazz with an outsider attitude. Imagine if Graham Parker had
joined Hawkwind, and you're starting to get the idea. Amazingly, 15
years after recording this one-off album in 1981, Mr. LMO returned to
the studio to record a brand new album "Red Resistor" (Variant 1997) and
if anything he managed to get even heavier and further out!
