13. SuicideSuicide
It’s the album that proves keyboards and a drum machine can rock as hard and be as disturbing as any rock & roll group. Alan Vega has this incredible raw quality to his voice, I love the New York-ness of it, and how it veers from really beautiful songs like ‘Cheree’ to ‘Frankie Teardrop’. They’re one of those bands who invented the future.
Selected in other Baker’s Dozens: Shackleton, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Rocket Girl, James Fry, Coldcut, Blanck Mass, Pan Sonic, Moby, El P
