Dark Entries has dug deep into the early days of the Belgian
cassette scene to release two tapes by The Neon Judgment in the
form of one vinyl LP for the first time ever! These pioneers of
underground electronic music hail from the small town of Leuven
near Brussels, Belgium and gave birth to the New Beat and EBM
scenes worldwide in 1981/2 with the release of their first two
cassettes--neatly compiled here as "Early Tapes". Always a
consistent duo of Dirk Da Davo (synthesizers, vocals) and TB
Frank (guitar, drum machine, vocals) The Neon Judgment worked in
a parallel world alongside Suicide, Cabaret Voltaire, and the
Deutsche Neue Welle recording under the watchful eyes of Roland
Beelen (Antler-Subway) & Ludo Camerberlin (A Blaze Colour).
Arriving just in time to celebrate the Neon Judgment's 30th
anniversary, "Early Tapes" showcases the band's brash and seedy
lyrics, with raw synth stabs and repetitive drum machine beats
adding to this rhythmic discourse. The result is a combination
of lo-fi technology and emotional sincerity to create a sound
both warm yet alienating that has stood the test of time and 30
years later, still evokes the same magic. The 10 songs on this
LP were remastered from the original cassette masters resulting
in a cohesive, gritty, maniacal dance program that sounds more
relevant today than ever. Each sleeve is hand numbered in
limited edition copies of 500 with an 11x11 lyric sheet
including rare photos, a mini poster and two silk screened die-
cut diagrams taken from the band's original synthesizer
workbooks.
