DESCRIPTION

Monte Cazzaza,San Francisco based, Industrial music pioneer, artist and filmmaker and a genuinely unique artist whose influence on culture in the 20th century has yet be recognized. The Cynic is Monte s first album studio recordings since the early 80 s. His original releases were through Throbbing Gristle s Industrial Records and San Fran s Subterranean Records. He was regularly featured in the seminal ReSearch magazine and books. In the early 90 s Mute Records gathered most of his earlier recordings together for a Worst Of Monte Cazzaza compilation. This early work was harsh, mostly perceived as violently anti-social and often quite shocking. The Cynic sees him unwittingly mine a vein of highly in vogue retro synth-pop and TV theme tune soundtracks in a uniquely Monte way. The album is a Rolls Royce release for those Industrial/Noise fans who can hear beyond the adolescent screech-fests that the genre has been reduced to. To that end The Wire magazine is publishing a major, Jack Sargent written, feature that serves as a great overview of his often mysterious career, which has frequently seen Monte self sabotage any attempt to have the outside s world engage with his work. Track Listing : Interrogator / A Gringo Like Me / Break Number One/ Terminal /Venom / What s So Kind About Mankind/ Birds of Prey
