Lavish reissue of debut studio album by much-loved British misfits.
Right from Cardiacs’ inception at the end of the 70s, listeners who inadvertently stumbled across their music could feel as if a wonderful, precious secret was being revealed. Operating in the margins of punk, prog andeccentricity would have been drawn into their orbit, and over a series of singles, EPs, cassettes and explosive live performances, their fanbase grew. By 1987, the secret of Cardiacs was becoming hard to keep. Perhaps, after nearly a decade of chaotic activity, it was time for them to make a proper album (whatever ‘proper’ might mean).
