SUICIDE American Supreme (Blast First BFFP168) Alan Vega RARE EU 1st Press +Shrink MINT!
RARE EU first pressing of the Suicide double-album "American Supreme" on Blast First Records (October 2002). Very RARE and extremely limited vinyl edition of this late-period minor masterpiece by the seminal electronic duo.
"American Supreme is the first new Suicide album in over a decade. At its best, it's the equivalent of mainlining those god-awful HBO late-night b-movies. The lyrics still have that embarrassingly sincere, yet caricatured tone, and they're still terminally obsessed with topics of decadence, creepy America, bohemian lifestyles, and violence-- all things that Sonic Youth finally left behind on Murray Street. Musically, however, Suicide has started to build something a little more suitable. (...)
Rev and Vega's stated intention has always been to reflect their culture and environment, and rather than return to their still potent and compelling formula from 30 years ago, Suicide have opted to remain focused on their goal. What results is a collection of bastardized house and hip-hop beats, interspersed by the occasionally indulgent necessary noise, not even remotely resembling the golden-age bubblegum aspirations of their first two albums. (...) Yet, American Supreme takes chances, falls on its face and spits in yours, sincere and ironic, waving its negative-print, nihilistic flag high."       - Kim Shannon - Pitchfork, January 2003.

eBay`s maximum shipping cost for the US is predetermined at $4. Obviously, the pricing system does  not foresee foreign sellers listing in the US. However, we cannot possibly ship a double album from Europe at this price. By purchasing, the buyer agrees with the mailing costs as outlined above.
