Torso (Holland) 1983
torso 335 (LP) Original pressing, gatefold/coated jacket
sleeve : EX-(some discoloration)
media : EX+/EX(some light crackle, B4: one light crackle)
The 2nd album released in 1983 by the Dutch art-rock band Flue, formed around Cor Bolten, an early member of Mecano. The band released two albums in the early 80s before disappearing. This work combines live instruments such as Mecano's violin and saxophone, synthesizers, and other electronics with a band sound, developing a dark new wave with a decadent atmosphere. Although it is similar to German new wave, it also features chamber music-like songs with only strings and piano, and the sound construction and worldview are quite progressive rock. Original Dutch pressing.
