~There's a devil in me~

Ο Adrian Borland (των The Sound) καλοκαίρι του 1992 στην Κρήτη με ένα t-shirt των Joy Division & Ian Curtis!
Στενός φίλος του Ian έλεγε στο NME μετά την αυτοκτονία του:
"Σέβομαι την τελική πράξη του Ian Curtis, απλά εγώ ποτέ δε θ'αντιδρούσα έτσι. Με φοβίζει το άγνωστο του θανάτου"
Παλεύοντας με τους δαίμονες του, δίνει τέλος στην ζωή του το 1999 πέφτοντας στις γραμμές του τραίνου στο Wimbledon.

From the Lions Mouth is the second studio album by the English post-punk band the Sound, released in November 1981 on record label Korova...

The album cover artwork was taken from the 1872 painting Daniel in the Lion's Den by Briton Rivière.

NME compared the album's bleak nature to Joy Division's Closer. Despite The Sound being posited as a gloomy band, AllMusic wrote, "snake-charming opener 'Winning' is like a dash of cold water in the faces of all the bands that were wallowing and withering away at the weeping well [...] The Sound were not mopes. They had their problems with life, but rather than just vent or escape from them, they confront them and ask questions and attempt to sort it all out.".. - Wikipedia

https://friendica.world/display/84b6ef2b-5968-0cc7-62b1-b5e138073385

The Sound's 'Propaganda' was recorded in 1979, before they released their debut album 'Jeopardy', and is the earliest material they ever recorded.
It was not released until 1999 on Renascent Records, more than 10 years after the band broke up.

Vocalist Adrian Borland was involved in the remastering process and took his own life on 26 April 1999, the day of the album's release.

It was considered by the band to be their true first album.
