2002 release ** "An oddity in Cramps production was the release in 1980 of a series of singles by seven Italian new-wave bands (Dirty Actions, Kandeggina Gang, Kaos Rock, Skiantos, Take Four Doses, Windopen, X-Rated) called "Rock 80". Most singles came on coloured vinyl and were subsequently collected on the "Rock 80" compilation." Seminal release for Italian punk / post-punk."

Pleasure, the sole album, rea…

Edition of 500 * Cindytalk is the mercurial, expressionist outlet of Scottish artist Cinder.  An evolution of her early 1980s Edinburgh-based punk band The Freeze, she launched the project upon moving to London, inspired by the crossroads of exploratory UK post-punk and early European industrial.
