Lisfrank - Mask Rewind + Bonus (CD)

LISFRANK was an obscure one-man project from Savona area, Italy, active from 1980 onwards but not releasing much music ever since apart from a few tracks via the own Mask Productions label in 1982 and 1983. The first and only LISFRANK stand-alone release was the 12”EP “Man Mask” (Mask Productions, MKX 01, 1982), definitely one of the best and rarest early 80’s minimal electro 12”s ever and on top of most want lists ever since, including the super hit “It’s Life”, as well as “Violence in my Mind”. “

The CD captures the majority of recordings from 1980 onwards including "Ombre" and three previously unreleased tracks from the early days. LISFRANK’s early music is completely analogue electronics with drum machine (or real drums on two tracks), very unique and each a track a classic of its own kind. The early tracks until 1983 are rough and dark creating an overall and coherent dark atmosphere throughout the whole album. The 1984/85 tracks “Stay with me” and “My Toy” were a bit more pop-oriented and introducing the digital possibilities of the time. LISFRANK’s lyrics are very dark and full of despair, dealing with personal fears, self-perception and the problems arising from this and other human interactions.
