Alan Vega & Martin Rev's Suicide: Dream Baby Dream / Radiation 12 inch, Vinyl, Celluloid / ZE Records, 1980
Suicide was an American musical duo composed of vocalist Alan Vega and instrumentalist Martin Rev, intermittently active between 1970 and 2016. The group's pioneering music used minimalist electronic instrumentation, including synthesizers and primitive drum machines, and their early performances were confrontational and often ended in violence. They were among the first acts to use the phrase "punk music" in an advertisement for a concert in 1970.
Dream Baby Dream" is a song by the electro-punk band Suicide, written by its members Martin Rev and Alan Vega. It was released as a single in 1980 by Celluloid / ZE Records.
Dream Baby Dream is a song that hangs between hope and nihilism.
“I guess we were too punk even for the punk crowd. They hated us. I taunted them with, ‘You fuckers have to live through us to get to the main band.’”
This is the original 12 inch, 1980 French release from Celluloid / ZE Records, blue labels.
