UNDERGROUND : March 1988

---

Designed to present both the dance and ambient sides of SPK, I'm afraid this album proves they never were very good at the former, while countless other bands manage to achieve far more effective results with the latter. Which is a shame, as their last album hinted at something of a return to form.
This, however, is a tenth rate Madonna mixed with various taped ethnic musics and samples that anyone with a decent tape recorder and keyboard could do. Gold? Do me a favour. This is SPKrap.
