Catalog Number: FODARC002V Color: Black Format: LP UPC: 5052571219317 Pig masks, burning keyboards, full frontal nudity - madnomad's self-styled 'entertainment product' was briefly the greatest show on earth. And while that spectacle is seared into the retinas of all who saw it, what mattered was the music: a molotov cocktail that drew on The Chemical Brothers, Butthole Surfers, Bill Hicks, Baz Luhrmann and Aphex Twin. Musicians from some of the city's best bands were pulled into the project, resulting in one of the great lost albums of its time. Furious, tender, hilarious - tamper-evident was a revelation in the era of dodgy dossiers and 'new rock revolution'. It still sounds radical today. Highlights include the misanthropic Ad Nauseam and incendiary Let's Kill The Pig, along with memorable turns from Chikinki's Rupert Browne (It Is This, tamper-evident) and Annette Berlin (Big Joan / Shoun Shoun), whose harrowing performance on The Drunkard's Song is a must-hear. 35 Summers' meditation on the passage of time is framed by achingly lovely guitars, while Period's jaunty tune belies the hopelessness of its narrator's life. madnomad even venture into drill 'n' bass on the frantic Thanx. Abrupt changes of pace and mood are key to the album's disconcerting brilliance. Sugar Shack Records released tamper-evident on CD in 2003 and there were plans for a vinyl release to follow but it wasn't to be. After an enforced hiatus following a notorious performance at Beautiful Days festival it soon became clear the break would be permanent. madnomad's reign of terror was over, or so it seemed. 22 years later, tamper-evident is back and it's lost none of its disorientating power. Remastered for vinyl and presented on Salami/Chorizo Red with black smoke wax, this is the definitive madnomad Entertainment Product. Grab your tin opener and tuck in.
