The Silence - Empty Places 12"

Herb Jackson Records 4705 / 1985 - a rather tasty slice of light new wave. good synths, good vocals, good dark bass lines. tough to find much about this band. The Mice which seems like the most popular artist on the label as their cd has been reissued, yet this is the first release from the Cleveland, OH label. four songs here, all strong stuff for the genre. the four members of the band are in white shirts and black coats, nothing too fancy or fruity. this record was from the Brooklyn load, originally priced at 4- in 1989. overall grade B/solid, yet not essential. for fans of deep new wave digs. i can see using each of the four songs, but none of them sticking in your head all afternoon.
