Cleaners From Venus – Under Wartime Conditions
Only 1 left in stock
$20.00
This is one of many Cleaners from Venus previously cassette-only releases from founding member Martin Newell, who formed the legendary lo-fi band Cleaners From Venus in the small town of Wivenhoe, England. One of Newell’s chief problems at this time, apart from constant money shortages, was finding musical collaborators who shared his own skewed pop vision. The absolute opposite of a musical perfectionist, the founder Cleaner believed that great pop was to be had by doing things quickly, in a slapdash fashion and by “fumbling around in the dark in search of happy accidents.”
