LP - The Neon Judgement - The Neon Judgement 1981-1984 (FACE 07) BEL



Only a very small part of this LP arrived at Scarface HQ in a red sleeve. This has nothing to do with first or second pressing. It's simply an error made by the pressing plant. Since the number of those erroneous sleeves were very limited the band and label decided to sell them after all although the correct sleeve (as requested/ordered) was of course black and white.

A1 The Fashion Party
A2 Concrete - It Feels So Strong
A3 Too Cold To Breathe
A4 One Jump Ahead
A5 Nion
B1 Tv Treated
B2 Please, Release Me, Let Me Go - Go
B3 I Must Be On My Own
B4 Factory Walk
B5 Concrete - NY, Stoney Wall Doll

The Neon Judgement was a Belgian new wave band.

The band was started in Leuven in 1981 by Dirk Da Davo and TB Frank.

The band briefly stopped performing in 1998, but reformed in 2004 and started playing live again to promote a series of remixes and rereleases of their material. The touring continues into 2006, with the band promising on their [homepage] that, "Live, The Neon Judgement will continue to give art terrorism a good name, finding new ways of marrying noise and beauty, machines and magic."

Nowadays Dirk Da Davo is also active in the side project Neon Electronics, for which he started his own record label Dancedelic-D and he both reworks old classics and composes new material. Both Neon Electronics and the original band have also joined Belgian community Je m'en fish.
