THE ALOOF – “THIS CONSTANT CHASE FOR THRILLS” (2022 Re-Issue) (Released 29th April 2022)

Description

//Acid Jazz//

£27.99 – 1xLP, Limited Edition Vinyl

Acid jazz presents the long-awaited reissue of the aloof’s cult-classic final lp ‘this constant chase for thrills’.

Formed in 1990, the Aloof were a pioneering electronic act, playing and touring with the likes of massive attack and leftfield. after three albums with the Warner Eastwest, they forged their own path, releasing ‘this constant chase for thrills’ on their own ‘screaming target’ label despite highlights ‘doing it for money’ and ‘painted face’ – as well as ‘so good’, which featured in the US version of queer as folk – the lp didn’t get the coverage it deserved upon release. within a dark and moody atmosphere, there is definite Ibiza and Balearic feel to the record, showing a band with a positive DIY spirit.
