No Album Left Behind: Alan Vega revels in gritty atmospherics on his posthumous album 'Mutator.' Read erdanton's review:
was one of them. Recorded with his collaborator Liz Lamere in 1995-96, this “lost album” seethes with the influence of New York City in the ’90s, conveying the clamor of life in a city that hadn’t yet fully shed the gritty, dangerous aura that had defined it since, well, Suicide’s heyday. In other words,The eight tracks here were intended as experiments in sound, and Vega shows almost no interest in conventional song structures or, for that matter, melody.
There are other religious references elsewhere, including the title of “Psalm 68,” where Vega mutters unintelligibly through an opaque curtain of synthesizers and rhythm that first evokes a record skipping and evolves into a steady, keening drone. Yetis not a celebration of the sacred so much as an exploration of the profane, or at least the unconsecrated, as Vega makes clear on the tracks where his vocals are more discernible.
