Rare single released buy Dome Records in 1981 with two experimental minimal pop songs courtesy of Angel Conway and B.C. Gilbert (Wire, Dome, etc.).
condition (record/cover): NM / EX-
Throughout the 1980s Angela Conway was a regular contributor to Wire-related ventures such as Dome, P'o, and He Said, usually as a vocalist. During that time, in collaboration with Wire's Bruce Gilbert, she also pursued her own work under the name A.C. Marias. Gilbert's presence can be felt in the looping, pared-down guitar patterns, synth noises, and sparse repetitive rhythms that give the songs a mesmerizing quality. But whereas one of those components alone might have been the focus of an entire Dome track, with A.C. Marias they're integrated into more concise, melodic arrangements built around Conway's understated, almost choral vocals.
