Dark Continent / Call Of The West

WALL OF VOODOO Dark Continent / Call Of The West (2009 Australian exclusive 21-track CD album, compiling the legendary New Wave group's 1st and 2nd albums, originally released in 1981 and '82 - Wall of Voodoo emerged from the late 1970s Los Angeles punk/alternative scene with a unique blend of machine-age junk music and off-kilter pop-rock. Like Devo, Wall of Voodoo's sound was always challenging and entertaining, or as once described, 'classy Halloween music, scary but pleasantly so'. The debut 'Dark Continent' was brilliantly executed with a blend of hyperactive rhythm box beats, Western and film noir-influenced guitar, colourful washes of synthesizer and lead singer Stan Ridgway's distinctive vocals and highly stylised cinematic narratives. The follow-up, 'Call of the West', was livelier and even more articulate, yielding the now-classic alternative hit 'Mexican Radio'; featuring superb quality audio and detailed liner notes)
