Zach Top Singles [7" VINYL]

5 x 7" BOX SET (limited edition of 500 copies). Decima Victima were a Spanish band that, during their short-lived career, developed a very personal sound reminiscent of Joy Division, The Cure and other British post-punk bands. Although commercial success evaded them, rarely has any Spanish band achieved such a high degree of quality and coherence in their music and personality. Despite only being active for under three years, Decima Victima left a long-lasting legacy, and their influence would later be heard in Spanish bands such as Family, Los Planetas and Sr Chinarro. The story of Decima Victima started in 1981, with Carlos Entrena rehearsing with Lars and Per Mertanen, and a drum machine, in the cellar of the Mertanens' house in Madrid. A few months later they made their first studio recording, a demo recorded on a 4-track. And shortly after, with their friends from the band Esclarecidos, they started the independent label Grabaciones Accidentales (GASA) and were able to start releasing their own records. Their first single was released in 1982, featuring Lars on drums. Shortly after, Esclarecidos introduced Jose Brena to them and he joined Decima Victima as drummer. This box set comprises all the singles released by the band throughout their career, from 1982 to 1984, now reissued for the first time in their original format. The artwork has been updated by the band members themselves, and the set also includes a 12-page booklet. Limited edition of 500 copies. TRACKLIST MR 7388-1 A1. EL VACIO B1.
