Seeing as you have the album could you put up : 'On Every Other Street'...please? I don't have it any more, it was nicked about 20 years ago and I live on the dark side of the Earth where vinyl melts...so it would mean a lot to me!

Very creepy and ahead of its time. It EVER so slightly makes me think of the intro and outro to The Cure's song Pornography, with its reversed tape loop(or whatever it's called-it has the same spooky effect).

[Zrcalo]

BEST SONG EVR

[AntDcruze]

I'm sure they've used the noise of the 'Monster from the Id' in the original, Forbidden Planet.

Quality :)

[MagnitudePerson]

AWESOME!!!

[rotator]

awesome

The jumping soldier Konrad Schuman is escaping from East berlin to West Berlin : he was meant to survey this frontier, but he used the situation to run away.

I'm reminded of M Manson as I watch Voltaire's videos again.

These guys were no glam band, not at all.
