I,Assasin (Green Vinyl)

Ltd Green Vinyl! Originally released in 1982, I, Assassin is Gary Numan's sixth studio albumand fourth under his own name. _Çó Restored from the original analogue tapes, presented on HD audio _Çó Dark green vinyl Combining fretless bass with heavy rock drumming, Numan further refined hisdark, sparse, funky-electro style, mixing it with impenetrable, slurredvocals. Numan recorded and wrote most of the music between January and March 1982,following his infamous round-the-world trip in a light aircraft and a near-death crash onto a British road while co-piloting a spiraling Cessna. According to Numan, who was still only 24-years-old at the time, "the round-the-world flight, the plane crash, these were big things that helped me shapea new opinion of myself. Those experiences gave me a self-confidence, agenuine strength that I hadn't had before."à Twenty years later, the singerenthused, "I still think it's one of the best albums I've made."à I,Assassin's heavily percussive approach led to several tracks becomingunexpected intruders on American dancefloors, notably the 12" single of "MusicFor Chameleons" and a specially remixed U.S. version of "White Boys AndHeroes. I, Assassin stands out as a record fiercely propelled by powerful rhythms insongs laced with an earthy cynicism.
