Electric Peace Kill for Your Love 7″

A one-sided neo-psychedelic record anchored by a basic rock ’n’ roll chord progression. What makes it interesting are some hot acid-damaged lead guitar parts and the harmonized background vocal chants Á  la BEAU BRUMMELS. I’m not wild about the lead singing, but it’s still a pretty sharp record.

Electric Peace Tell Me You Hate Me 12″

BYRDS-style neo-psychedelia—minus the 12-string guitar—meets DUANE EDDY-ish twanginess. Despite the singer’s sometimes annoying vocals, there’s interesting stuff on this half-sided picture disc, especially “Sniper on the Rooftop.”
