Brand new edition of the SPK masterpiece first released in 1982. Over 40 years have gone but the energy of "Leichenschrei" by "Socialistisches Patienten Kollektiv" is still very H.I.G.H.! An absolute highlight in Industrial culture and muzak. Graeme Revell wrote a new Leichenschrei Testament / Tribute for the 2019 edition, and those writings have also been integrated into the cover notes here to introduce the listener into such a "Magnum Opera".

It all starts off with ominous electronics, muffled voices talking about guillotines and icy bodies and death. Dark. Very dark. And then we kick into this drums and electronic industrial percussion thing but the voices just keep on with the same oppressive stance... Bits of autopsy tapes, some insane schizoid monologue... "Leichenschrei" (the title means "corpse screams" in German) is one of the absolutely darkest musical visions of the early Industrial works. Terribly dynamic and organic. A must have for all lovers of Industrial muzak and its roots.

6-panel digipak.
