Wow, what you are bidding on is a beautiful original pressing of MINNIMAL MAN: THE SHROUD OF. This is a pressing on the Subterranean Records label out of Berkley, California. The lp is in great condition, the jacket is in great shape too If you need this record, this would be the one to get.
Classic debut from avant-postpunk-industrial band, formed in San Francisco (1979) by visual artist and musician PATRICK MILLER (1952-2003) who started MINIMAL MAN intending at first to make music for his film experimentations. Patrick Miller pushed punk /DIY attitude to industrial-experimental extremes drawing grey environments and hostile situations that lead people to wildness, poorness or madness. His spoken words, wild screams and mournful murmurs fill the noise-crossed spaces with the sad, violent, desperate echo of efforts for surviving. Despite of its raw character, Miller`s music reflects a sensitive spirit, a high artistic instinct and also hides some hope. "THE SHROUD OF", whose front cover was painted by Miller himshelf, was followed by a second LP, SAFARI (1983), before Miller`s relocation to Belgium, where he was related with Tuxedomoon and released four more LPs. Early 90`s Miller returned to USA, giving though, no further music documents of his persona of "minimal man".
This post is for his memory and comprises the 13 tracks of the original release. A quite recent reissue of the album includes 5 extras (singles, live...).
