They Have the Technology

Great news. I just learned, via Zoilus, that Pere Ubu's excellent and long-lost late 80's records on Fontana are to be rereleased in March this year. I'm particularly fond of Cloudland and The Tenement Year, both of which I consider among their best records. For a taster of what you can look forward to, I give you a track from each of the two aforementioned albums.

• Pere Ubu - "Breath" (MP3) from Cloudland
• Pere Ubu - "We Have the Technology" (MP3) from The Tenement Year

I also recommend Carl "Zoilus" Wilson's post on "We Have the Technology", and remind those of you in Norway that the latest incarnation of Pere Ubu will be playing at John Dee in Olso on April 30th.
