Dream Baby Dream / Radiation

by Suicide

A stunning departure from Suicide's typically aggressive, confrontational electronic-punk sound. Martin Rev provides an impossibly simple, throbbing synthesizer loop over which Alan Vega delivers a tender, almost mantra-like rockabilly croon. This delicate, beautiful track heavily influenced the burgeoning synthpop movement and was later famously covered by Bruce Springsteen during his live tours.
