it is a record...made in the Uk, with a picture cover and all artwork A1 Fadeout 1930 A2 The Crazies A3 Only A Downstat B We Have A Technical One of the founding fathers of synth-pop, Gary Numan's influence extends far beyond his lone American hit "Cars," which still stands as one of the defining new wave singles. That seminal track helped usher in the synth-pop era on both sides of the Atlantic, especially his native U.K., where he was a genuine pop star and consistent hitmaker during the early ‘80s. Even after new wave had petered out, Numan's impact continued to make itself felt; his dark, paranoid vision, theatrically icy alien persona, and clinical, robotic sound were echoed strongly in the work of many goth-rock and (especially) industrial artists to come. For his part, Numan just kept on recording, and by the late ‘90s, he'd become a hip name to drop; prominent alt-rock bands covered his hits in concert, and a goth-flavored brand of industrial dance christened darkwave looked to him as its mentor..With his fan base refreshed and expectations raised, Numan delved deeper into gothic, metal-tinged industrial dance on 1997's Exile. However, he didn't truly hit his stride in this newly adopted style until 2000's Pure, which was acclaimed as his best work in years and expanded his cult following into new territory..
