PHOTOGENIX
Photogenix
1983 Canada 12” E.P.
@ #45rpm
First spin from the pile of today’s finds goes to the shortest one.
A great little 4-song #newwave #postpunk -y from Montreal’s Photogenix.
This appears to be the band’s only official release. A self-produced E.P.
Apparently, at the time, Montreal’s pop scene was overrun with major-label economics. So this recording garnered some attention for being so independent and sounding SO good.
Great little 4-pack of songs.

@TheVinylApe@cupoftea.social great find! Not common, especially outside of Montreal I would imagine. I think I had heard Sleep Dancing on CHOM FM - Claude Rajotte had a show on new music back then. Reminds me that when I started doing FM radio work, one of the early interviews I did was with Rajotte.
