Cultural Decay
Eight Ways To Start A Day
CULTURAL DECAY existed from 1980-1982. During their brief life span the band released less than 20 minutes of recorded music. Pressed in editions of 1,000 each on their own Sexy Robot Records, the band's collective discography is comprised of a highly sought after 7-inch single and two-song 12-inch EP. The latter was produced and features additional accompaniment by future REVOLTING COCKS co-founder LUC VAN ACKER. The band played a total of 15 gigs in local clubs-with like minded Belgian acts such as Struggler, De Brassers, and Siglo XX-before disbanding. Sacred Bones Records presents Eight Ways To Start a Day, the first official release in close to three decades from this fabled Belgian coldwave band. Their sound, a collision of ethereal one-note synth lines and dark post-punk aggression, recalls the controlled ferocity of Crisis and The Southern Deathcult at their best. The recordings on these releases comprise the band's entire recorded output. Includes an extensive booklet including photos, liner notes and a comprehensive band history from member JOSEPH V. Includes eight bonus tracks.
