n 1988, Suicide reunited for the first time, resulting in their third album, the Ocasek-produced A Way of Life. As the '80s became the '90s, Vega explored new media outlets: Deuce Avenue War/The Warriors v3 97, his first book of photography, appeared in 1990, while Cripple Nation, a collection of prose and lyrics, bowed in 1991.
His first album with contributions from Lamere, 1990's Deuce Avenue, returned to the electronic sounds of Suicide and added hip-hop-influenced beats and scratching, an approach he continued on the following year's Power on to Zero Hour. Following another tour with Suicide, in 1994 Vega worked with Mercury Rev on "Dead Man," lending his spoken-word vocals to the B-side of the Everlasting Arm single. He resurfaced as a solo artist with 1995's New Raceion, an album that added hard rock and tropical rhythms to his more expected musical territory. He delivered the claustrophobic Dujang Prang in 1996, a year that also saw him work with Alex Chilton and Ben Vaughn on Cubist Blues and with Ocasek and Gillian McCain on Getchertikitz. More collaborations followed, including 1998's Endless, a collaboration with Finnish electronic duo Pan Sonic under the name Vainio Väisänen Vega, and that year's Righteous Life with Stephen Lironi as Revolutionary Corps of Teenage Jesus. Vega remained busy in 1999, issuing the score to Philippe Grandrieux's film Sombre, appearing on Étant Donnés' album Re-Up (which also featured Genesis P-Orridge and Lydia Lunch), and releasing his own album 2007, a dark, personal set of songs inspired by the state of the world and the birth of his son.
