The Pleasure Principle

by Gary Numan

The Pleasure Principle cover art

Completely abandoning guitars in favor of incredibly dense, icy Minimoog synthesizers, Gary Numan delivered a profoundly influential milestone of early electronic pop. Anchored by the timeless hit 'Cars', 'The Pleasure Principle' is a starkly futuristic, deeply mechanical, and intensely atmospheric exploration of robotic alienation and science-fiction anxiety.
