After the re-issue on LP of Conveyer Belt in 2008, and the vinyl re-issue of Via Del Latte, earlier this year (both on the Enfant Terrible label), here the re-issue on wax of the third and final Doxa Sinistra album: Newsflashes, originally released on cassette in 1988. This version comes as a double-12", in an edition of 350, on Trumpett itself, remasterd by Ruud Lekx.

.
Having operated as a duo on the previous albums, for Newsflashes Doxa Sinistra expanded to a four piece band, with the participation of Marc Tegefoss and André Bach of Det Wiehl/Tecnoville. As a result the sound was no longer merely industrial, while the compositions covered a much wider range than on Via Del Latte and Conveyer Belt. In a review, 23 years ago, Newsflashes was described as:
"Manicured noise with superior musicianship & ideal textures equal the leading edge of intelligent sound. Synthesizers and excellent guitar riffs team up with full-speed rhythm boxes and vocoder vocals! This is progressive industrial music with a unique bite."
