Chrome - Half Machine Lip Moves (1979)

 Driven by jagged guitar riffs, distorted vocals, and tape manipulation, Half Machine Lip Moves creates a fractured sonic landscape that feels both dystopian and psychedelic. Chrome somehow manages to blend elements of punk, industrial noise, sci-fi, and psychedelia, seamlessly and simultaneously. As otherworldly as it gets, in a Liquid Sky kind of way.

1990 US repress from Touch & Go that I found at a shop called Planet Tecords in Cambridge, MA back in 2017 and I’m still celebrating, hah.
