Lyrics painting images of dystopian love might be a sideways move away from the intense nihilism of his past, but it’s still the real deal. Alan Vega could not be anything else. Listen to tracks like ‘Creation’ and you still get that raw emotion he spent his career honing. Set against the grandeur of mid 80’s production: big processed drums, runaway guitar solos, we get a rare peak into what Vega would sound like if he was allowed to be a rock star drenched in the sonic excesses of the era. It was a brave and unfairly misunderstood move, but the components come together to form an incredible anti-commercial, commercial album. Just A Million Dreams is the sound of Alan Vega taking on the 1980’s and winning.\u003cbr\u003e\nWith help of the official Vega Vault, two never before heard tracks have been unearthed from the 1985 \u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eJAMD\u003c\/span\u003e recording sessions and brought to life by long time collaborator Liz Lamere and Jared Artaud of The Vacant Lots, adding a new insight to the recordings.

Limited to 1000 Numbered Copies. Alan Vega spent five years making this, his sixth solo album. The Suicide frontman certainly didn't show any signs of calming down. Within the first few seconds of Freedom's Smashed you're immersed in a blistering soundworld, dominated by caustic waves of white noise and static before Vega's familiar doom-prophet vocals barge in accompanied by a tirade of punishing electronic beats. As the album progresses you get the impression that some of his collaborative work with Pan Sonic's Mika Vainio and Ilpo Vaisanen must have rubbed off: Station Station is a more economical venture into rhythmic noise with a simple but potent combination of minimal beats and pulsing noise signals. Continuing in a similar vein is Psychopatha in which Vega takes on a sinister bogeyman persona scaring off children and their mothers alike with invitations to \"take your kids to Deadland\". Like much of this album - and indeed much of Vega's career - the track is haunted by images of war. Combine that with the apocalyptic hardcore of Gun God Game, the obliterated breaks of Warrior, Fight Fa Ya Life and the Primal Scream-referencing S.S.

The eleven songs here showcase the unparalleled vision and uncompromising force from one of the most influential artists of all time.Alan Vega was born in Brooklyn in 1938. He co-founded the legendary New York City punk band Suicide with Martin Rev in 1970. Suicide's groundbreaking 1977 debut is considered one of the most influential albums of all time. Vega considered his solo records the audio counterpoint to his visual art that reflected the world around him while simultaneously exploring universal themes. It makes his work as relevant today as it was when he created them. It was during his highly experimental period beginning in the late '80s that he began working with Liz Lamere, who became the most crucial collaborator of his solo career until his death in 2016. Lamere, along with Jared Artaud, resurrected these newly unearthed collection of lost recordings, which they co-produced and mixed. Lamere and Artaud spearhead the Vega Vault project, which aims to bring rare, unreleased and back catalog work spanning Alan Vega and Suicide's career to the public for the first time.On Insurrection, Lamere says: \"Insurrection was created in the time period around 1997\/98, after Mutator and prior to Vega's 1999 release of 2007 and captures the intense energy of NYC in the '90s rife with crime, killing, hate, fascism, racism, and moral bankruptcy. You can hear the tortured souls floating through this album. Post-Gulf War angst still enveloped Alan. He was having premonitions about a major terror attack in the US, well before 9\/11. The upcoming birth of his son raised further awareness of the state of our world. All these emotions are mirrored in the sounds he magnetized. And true to Vega form, there remains hope and empowerment coursing through the tracks. In the almost three decades of going into the studio with Vega, we recorded significantly more material than the seven albums released. Vega's intention was to experiment with sound which would become the canvas for the poetry that reflected his vision of the universe. Because the goal wasn't to make albums, he had no timeline or constraints and would freely follow new paths uncovered along the way.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSewer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvasion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCyanide Soul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMurder One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFireballer Fever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenocide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJet Lord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFireballer Spirit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 759718538519\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e In The Red Records\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.31.24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alan Vega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58291995902033,"sku":"306897","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4335864-3176420.jpg?v=1760737758"},{"product_id":"invasion-b-w-murder-one-transparent-red-vinyl-single","title":"Invasion b\/w Murder One [Transparent Red Vinyl Single]","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn Transparant Red Vinyl. One of Alan Vega's greatest talents was his ability to bring the past and the future together into a suspended place of timelessness. His groundbreaking duo Suicide was often seen as future primitivism and most of his musical output has exemplified this blending of the primordial human condition and visionary thinking. With Invasion b\/w Murder One, the next release from the now infamous Vega Vault following 2021's Mutator, we see this innate power in full effect. The two tracks \"Invasion\" and \"Murder One\" were recorded two decades apart from one another in New York City. \"Invasion\" was recorded toward the end of the 2012-2015 studio sessions for the posthumous album IT and was one of his last recordings, while \"Murder One\" was recorded in 1997-1998, (after the Mutator sessions) and is part of a cluster of material that was recorded but never mixed prior to the sessions for his album 2007, released in 1999. Pairing these two songs together as a release illustrates the timelessness of the 30 plus years of unreleased material that he deemed the Vega Vault. This release continues the collaboration of Mutator's mixing and producing team, Liz Lamere and Jared Artaud. Liz provides a bridge to the past, having performed throughout the recording process of \"Murder One\" and \"Invasion\" while Jared opens a bridge to the future having been chosen by Alan himself to carry the torch and ensure the vision stays intact. Alan trusted no one more than Liz and Jared, and gave his blessing and encouragement to continue releasing material from the Vault. As Alan stated in the song \"Vision\" from IT, \"If you destroy the vision, you will suffer the whirlwind.\" Listening to the various tracks during these mixing sessions brought up vivid recollections of how the sounds (such as the haunting voices in \"Murder One\") were created and the constant experimentation that was involved, memories that informed Liz's approach in the mixing process. Together with Jared's technical skills, intuition, and deep understanding of the feeling these sounds were intended to evoke, the two were able to preserve the authenticity of the recordings while enhancing the quality of sound so the listener can fully experience the nuances of these unique auditory creations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvasion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMurder One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 843563147245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sacred Bones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.25.22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\" Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alan Vega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58292315816017,"sku":"458931","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4050643-2783112.jpg?v=1760742078"},{"product_id":"mutator-lp","title":"Mutator [LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlan Vega's name is synonymous with unfettered, tireless creativity. Beginning in the late 1950s, when he was a fine art student at Brooklyn College, through his years playing in Suicide, and all the way up until his death in 2016, Vega was constantly creating. That process naturally led to a wealth of material that didn't see the light of day immediately when it was recorded, which came to be known as the Vega Vault. Mutator is the first in a series of archival releases from the Vault that will come out on Sacred Bones Records. Mutator was recorded alongside Vega's longtime collaborator Liz Lamere at his NYC studio from 1995-1996, and it serves as a document of a particularly fertile time in his creative life. He had 11 full-length solo albums come out during the '80s, '90s and '00s - plus numerous collaborations, and Suicide records A Way of Life and Why Be Blue. Mutator wasn't shelved intentionally, but Vega's back-to-the-grindstone M.O. meant that he had moved on to making his next record before this one was finished. Lamere and Vega's friend and confidante Jared Artaud (The Vacant Lots) rediscovered the raw, unmixed recordings from the Mutator sessions in the Vault in 2019. Soon after, they mixed and produced them into the visionary album that was lurking within those tapes. \"Our primary purpose for going into the studio was to experiment with sound, not to 'make records,'\" Lamere recalls. \"I was playing the machines with Alan manipulating sounds. I played riffs while Alan morphed the sounds being channeled through the machines.\"At the time of the Mutator sessions, Vega was massively inspired by what was happening in the streets of New York - not only the hip hop scenes that were exploding throughout the outer boroughs, but also the literal sounds of the streets, the traffic noise and industrial ambience of city living. That influence trickled into the sounds he and Lamere captured in those sessions. That sensibility, paired with Vega's unmistakable voice and force of personality, is what made it the great album it is now. The final piece was the production job, completed by Lamere and Artaud 25 years after the songs were first captured. \"Mutator bridges the gap between the past and present,\" Artaud says. \"It's something we feel he would have been really proud of, seeing this lost album released today. In so many ways, his music is needed now more than ever.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrinity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMuscles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSamurai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilthy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNike Soldier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePsalm 68\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreathe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 843563135228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sacred Bones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.23.21\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alan Vega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58292480704593,"sku":"499984","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/3940374-2675700.jpg?v=1760743332"},{"product_id":"pre-order-alan-vega-blue-colored-vinyl-deluxe-remastered","title":"Alan Vega [Deluxe Blue] (Remastered)","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlan Vega's self-titled debut solo album, originally released in 1980, marked a bold new chapter for one of New York's most influential and uncompromising voices. On his solo debut, Vega dove headfirst into the roots of his personal sound, fueled by blues, rockabilly, and his enduring love for Elvis Presley. Stripped of Suicide's confrontational electronics but retaining Vega's outsider energy and voice, the album translates early rock 'n roll through an art-punk filter and stands as a cult masterpiece in it's own right.

Stripped of Sui-cide's intense electronics yet retaining Vega's outsider energy and edge, the albumtranslates early rock 'n roll through an art-punk filter that stands the test of timeas a cult masterpiece in it's own right.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJukebox Babe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKung Foo Cowboy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFireball\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Cry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeedway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIce Drummer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBye Bye Bayou\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 843563194379\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sacred Bones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.23.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alan Vega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58414378877009,"sku":"62895207","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4473825-3481570.jpg?v=1764085344"},{"product_id":"alan-vega-invasion-b-w-murder-one-transparent-red-vinyl-single","title":"Alan Vega - Invasion b\/w Murder One [Transparent Red Vinyl Single]","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn Transparant Red Vinyl. One of Alan Vega's greatest talents was his ability to bring the past and the future together into a suspended place of timelessness. His groundbreaking duo Suicide was often seen as future primitivism and most of his musical output has exemplified this blending of the primordial human condition and visionary thinking. With Invasion b\/w Murder One, the next release from the now infamous Vega Vault following 2021's Mutator, we see this innate power in full effect. The two tracks \"Invasion\" and \"Murder One\" were recorded two decades apart from one another in New York City. \"Invasion\" was recorded toward the end of the 2012-2015 studio sessions for the posthumous album IT and was one of his last recordings, while \"Murder One\" was recorded in 1997-1998, (after the Mutator sessions) and is part of a cluster of material that was recorded but never mixed prior to the sessions for his album 2007, released in 1999. Pairing these two songs together as a release illustrates the timelessness of the 30 plus years of unreleased material that he deemed the Vega Vault. This release continues the collaboration of Mutator's mixing and producing team, Liz Lamere and Jared Artaud. Liz provides a bridge to the past, having performed throughout the recording process of \"Murder One\" and \"Invasion\" while Jared opens a bridge to the future having been chosen by Alan himself to carry the torch and ensure the vision stays intact. Alan trusted no one more than Liz and Jared, and gave his blessing and encouragement to continue releasing material from the Vault. As Alan stated in the song \"Vision\" from IT, \"If you destroy the vision, you will suffer the whirlwind.\" Listening to the various tracks during these mixing sessions brought up vivid recollections of how the sounds (such as the haunting voices in \"Murder One\") were created and the constant experimentation that was involved, memories that informed Liz's approach in the mixing process. Together with Jared's technical skills, intuition, and deep understanding of the feeling these sounds were intended to evoke, the two were able to preserve the authenticity of the recordings while enhancing the quality of sound so the listener can fully experience the nuances of these unique auditory creations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvasion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMurder One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 843563147245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sacred Bones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.25.22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\" Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rock Band Merch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59536882761809,"sku":"458931","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4050643-2783112_fd4138fc-b445-4a3b-a232-ce29a948d393.jpg?v=1779151723"},{"product_id":"pre-order-live-at-maxs-kansas-city-cobalt-blue","title":"[PRE-ORDER] Live at Max's Kansas City [Cobalt Blue]","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlan Vega’s Live at Max’s Kansas City captures one of music’s most fearless innovators and visionaries at full creative force, transforming this punk clubhouse, one of New York City’s most iconic cultural landmarks into a theater of raw performance, sonic experimentation, and uncompromising artistic expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eRecorded on July 18, 1980, just weeks before the release of his landmark self-titled solo debut, the performance finds Vega at a pivotal moment in his career, forging a singular artistic language where rockabilly, blues, electronic noise, and performance art converge with electrifying intensity. Across seven tracks, Vega is joined by young Texan guitarist Phil Hawk, whose razor-wire guitar work intertwines with Vega’s tape manipulation and experimental sound to amplify his uncompromising sonic vision.
