Amin Peck: Suicidal Vinyl 12″

This repress hits me where it hurts! The old Seor searched long and hard for this one a more than a few years ago. Eventually it made its way into my hands straight from Italy, but not before I had to give up a few of my pretty pennies. Needless to say, “Suicidal” is an italo jam of the highest caliber. Amin-Peck might be best known for their initial offering, “Girls On Me,” but that one is more for the EBM set. “Suicidal,” on the other hand, is pure italo joy. Heavy arpeggios, twisting leads, pulsing bass and a smattering of nearly intelligible vocals combine to make an intensely pleasurable electronic disco jam. Put this one on and the freaks will come out. If you like Giorgio you’ll love “Suicidal.”
