Synopsis

Album Description

After nearly thirty years, Black Devil's "extremely rare disco masterpiece" finally receives a proper follow-up. 28 After is an epic journey into the deepest electronic disco, full of haunting vocals, warped lyrics, twisted yet melodic electronics and crisp dance beats. In 2004 Aphex Twin's Rephlex label released an album by Black Devil called Disco Club, a re-issue of a long lost supposedly "Italo disco" classic from 1978. Given its absurdly modern sound many doubted its authenticity, some even suggesting that it was a collaboration between Richard James and Luke Vibert. Now comes a "new album," so similar in sound and structure to the original album that it's impossible to know if it was created near the time of its predecessor or in the last few years.

CD Reviews

Great underground-disco-dance tracks!

Paulo Leite | Lisbon, Portugal | 10/20/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album, in a certain way, sent me back to those obscure hard-dance tracks we used to hear back in the late seventies. Of course I was too young by then, BUT I collected several of those LPs from God knows where.

It does not sound like DONNA SUMMER, CHIC, BONEY M and all the (fabulous) commercial disco that was fashionable at the time. Nor does it sound like early electronic like KRAFTWERK, VISAGE and others. It sounds darker, more savage and relentless... almost porn (laughs). Like music that would never make it to the radio at that time.

I loved it!

In fact, these tracks are so interesting that I really would love if they had included any notes on the booklet. Anything that would help me understand the creative process behind this album. But no. It's all faceless.

Not for every taste. This is a CD for discerning and experienced listeners."
