A Way of Life

by Suicide

'A Way of Life' revives Suicide's pioneering synth-punk sound after nearly a decade of silence, updating their abrasive electronic minimalism with slightly modernized production. Alan Vega's anxious, rockabilly-inflected vocal tics clash against Martin Rev's cold, repetitive synthesizer pulses, creating a dark, urban tension.
