The Dead Boomers team of Leith Thomas and Mark Groves spent much of the early '10s honing their incisive power electronics live set, while recording a series of penetrating and perceptive releases for a number of Australian labels (including yours truly) and some further ashore.
The duo may have called it a day, but couldn't stand by without setting their sights on the political and social short-sightedness which the 2021 pandemic produced. Cue 'Aspen Liberals', an April 2020 radio broadcast piece of cruel noise, found sound memories, petri dish electronics creations and narrowed vocal delivery which places Dead Boomers' long-targeted upper class elite at the centre of the pandemic's spread.
This CD adds a number of tracks written and recorded between 2015 and 2020, some previously released in now lost editions, and others breaking to the surface for first time. While we still sweat at home under our masks, Dead Boomers remind us through 'Aspen Liberals' that the underground will always find a way - and hopefully bring down the elite in doing so.
Edition of 200 copies, digipack with an 8 page booklet, all designed by Mark Groves.
