专辑简介
Featuring Alan Vega - voice & Stephen Lironi (Altered Images) - machines. Righteous Lite is the debut full-length release by Revolutionary Corps of Teenage Jesus, an unlikely partnership between Alan Vega of Suicide and Stephen Lironi (he has also produced the likes of Black Grape, Bon Jovi and Hanson). While on the surface the Vega/Lironi partnership might seem a somewhat bizarre combination, it works remarkably well. It's immediately obvious that Lironi has a strong affinity for Suicide's vintage material, and isn't above letting this influence show. This is most apparent in the album's frequent use of sounds that recall Martin Rev's distinctive broken Farfisa, and when you place some of the tracks here next to, say, ''Cheree'' from Suicide's eponymous debut, the gap between the two releases seems to be far less than 22 years. This isn't to say that Righteous Lite sounds dated, though. While Vega doesn't sound a day older than Suicide's 1977 debut, there's no mistaking this for an old Suicide album. Lironi's machines provide a varied musical backing that mixes obvious Suicidal tendencies with industrial rock and mutant techno. One minute you're listening to cheesy organ sounds straight out of ''Rocket USA'', the next it's pounding beats or crystalline synths over anything from Nintendo bleeps to metallic crunches, with the whole glorious concoction glued together by a wonderful selection of samples. Creeping Bent label. 2006.
