  • Description

    Third album of Ian Svenonius (The Make-Up, Nation of Ulysses, Chain & The Gang etc.) solo project! Escape-ism is the work of Ian Svenonius, the author of "Supernatural Strategies for Making a Rock n Roll Group," "The Psychic Soviet," and "Censorship Now!!", the singer of The Make-Up, Chain & The Gang, XYZ, Too Much, et cetera, the writer/director of "What Is A Group?" (the world's only rock 'n' roll sci-fi documentary exploitation film), the host of "Soft Focus," the musician-on-musician chat show that preceded all the pretenders, and, more recently, his first full-length picture " The Lost Record ". On this new album, he plays minimalist electronic rock'n'roll with just an electric guitar, a microphone, an analogue-sounding drum machine, a tape deck, and the help of Alexandra Cabral on synthetizer and backing vocals, creating the rawest and most stripped-back manifestation of his singular muse to date.
