New Copy

Genre: Wave / Pop / Rock

1. Dream Baby Dream
2. Radiation

This first-time vinyl reissue and first-time domestic release comes with original sleeve design. Limited edition red vinyl.

It may come as a surprise to hear that Suicide's best-known song, the startlingly beautiful "Dream Baby Dream," was never issued on any of this seminal band's albums. Originally released on ZE Records in 1979, Suicide's second single has been covered by many artists – most famously Bruce Springsteen – to become one of the era's most ethereal love songs. "Dream Baby Dream's" sparse lyrics and majestic chords are simply chilling, while the B-side's "Radiation" offers a shamanistic groove – perfect for when the lights have gone out.
