SINGLES '81/82
THE DROWNING CRAZE
- Ref. XD889G
- BELLA UNION, 2018. Enregistrement 1981-1982.
The history of post-punk is full of curious footnotes and sudden dead-ends. Fascinating bands that flared up, intoxicated with the rush of ideas and sense of creative freedom in that fertile period where there were no rules and boundaries to creativity for groups, leaving a vapour trail of a handful of singles and inevitable John Peel sessions before disappearing back into the ether. The Drowning Craze are typical of those bands. Their legacy is three singles and a John Peel session, a glimmer of possibility and a hint of something quite wonderful, and then gone. Fortunately for them their constituent members re-emerged years later in other projects leaving them flagged up on the history train with the band's bassist Simon Raymonde going on to play in the Cocteau Twins before setting up his own label, Bella Union, and original vocalist, Angela Jaeger, joining Pigbag whilst their next singer, Frankie ‘Fun' Nardiello, joined the esoteric Chicago industrial disco band Thrill Kill Kult. These recordings have now been gathered together as "Singles 81 - '82". (bellaunion.com)
