Sutcliffe Jugend: This is the Truth

Sutcliffe Jugend “This Is The Truth” CD The first new recordings from Sutcliffe Jugend in over 8 years. Sutcliffe Jugend began in 1982 as a sub-project from the main extreme band, Whitehouse, and instantly gained notoriety as one of the harshest exponents of the original power electronics scene in the world. After releasing the monumental 10xCS boxset “We Spit On Their Graves” on Come Organisation in 1982, Sutcliffe Jugend released a handful of albums until 1999. A single 7” was released in 2001 and they weren’t heard from again since 2006 when they played their first ever live show. Four shows were performed in 2006 and work on a new studio album was soon underway. One of the most extreme, influential and mysterious bands of the early 80s were back almost 25 years later.

Recorded and mixed during the latter half of 2006, Kevin Tomkins returns to vocals for the first time since “The Victim As Beauty”. While this album is a continuation of all before, it feels like a new beginning for them, for the first time Kevin and Paul have started to experiment with the Sutcliffe Jugend sound. Lyrically things have also moved on a great deal, with a more personal aspect to the songs than ever before.(Ground Fault/Hospital Productions)
