"Heroes" / V-2 Schneider

Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in the shadow of the Berlin Wall, 'Heroes' is anchored by Robert Fripp's undulating, sustained guitar lines and Tony Visconti's ingenious gated microphone techniques. The narrative follows two lovers defying Cold War division, escalating from a weary croon to a desperate, impassioned roar. Despite modest initial chart success, it evolved into an enduring anthem of triumph and resilience.
