Emerging from the band’s earlier incarnation as New Math, the group refocused in the mid-1980s with a new name, a new vision, and a sound that moved beyond the limits of punk rock and new wave. What followed was darker, stranger, and more ambitious: country-rock ghosts, rockabilly swing, western balladry, psych-punk atmosphere, and beat-inspired storytelling fused into one singular vision. After feeling stymied in their previous form, the renewed band set its sights on breaking out to other countries and, conceptually, other planets. Recorded in two days in August of 1984, Sundown on Venus was originally released by Enigma\/Pink Dust after the newly reconfigured band signed with Enigma. The original 1985 release, however, arrived with complications. Enigma wanted additional material included, so the album was packaged with a bonus 12-inch featuring extra tracks, including a song written for the film The Return of the Living Dead, ill-chosen cover songs, and re-recordings of older New Math material. Now, Sundown on Venus [Definitive Edition] restores the album to what the band originally envisioned it in 1985. 12 songs newly remastered \u0026amp; re-presented with focus, this \"Definitive Edition\" brings attention back to the album’s dark narrative arc \u0026amp; unusual genre chemistry. Though the original album received press coverage on both sides of the Atlantic in outlets including Cash Box, Billboard, CMJ, Interview, and the UK’s SOUNDS, Sundown on Venus never found the commercial audience its ambition deserved. What once slipped through the cracks of underground rock history now stands as a missing link between cowpunk, psych revival, rockabilly, goth, post-punk, Americana, \u0026amp; cinematic sci-fi storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrack Listing:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJohnsonville\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBad Hombré\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSundown On Venus\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDouble Cross\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMasked Astronaut\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMacumba Love\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNoon In Cairo\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArticles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRing Of Steel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShadow Drive\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGo Devils\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Is Lost\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank you for looking at our listing, below are a few points to consider before making a purchase:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- All records we sell are Brand New - pre-orders will normally come sealed but if you are purchasing in stock items, please note the copy may have been unsealed for display in the shop.
