What the label says about War Sucks, by Spectrum:


The EP features two covers – a re-worked version of the Red Crayola classic WAR SUCKS and Laurie Anderson’s overlooked gem WALKING & FALLING ,plus two originals OVER & OVER and RAZZLE DAZZLE MIND The four tracks cover the whole gamut of SPECTRUM’s take on Pop , Psychedelia ,Rock & Experimental sounds , hinting at the variety of songs that will feature on the album due for release at the later in the year.WAR SUCKS see’s the band psychedelically stormtroop through the Red Crayola classic accompanied by nebelwerfer strains - a kind of ‘Stalin organ’ used in WW2 by the Germans to invoke as much chaos , noise and fear as possible blended with the overhead scream of a Stuka dive-bomber. The combination of the over-driven guitar sound, crashing cymbals and apocalyptic vocal with these screaming sound effects makes for a unique & compelling sound experience.RAZZLE DAZZLE MIND is an instrumental , with this classic Stooges meets Stereolab track – a vocal version is expected for the new l.p. WALKING & FALLING is an inspired cover of Laurie Anderson’s spoken word piece from 1980, taking the track to a stunning conclusion only hinted at in the original. Intense delay feedback melding with the trademark Vox repeater tone .It seamlessly segues into the final track, a Spectrum Original OVER & OVER –highly reminiscent of Playing With Fire era SPACEMEN 3 & at least the equal to songs such as ‘Let me down gently’ & ‘How does it feel’.
