Dark Entries celebrates it's 15th anniversary with legendary synth-punk deviants Crash Course in Science. Dale Feliciello, Mallory Yago, and Michael Zodorozny formed CCIS in 1979 after meeting at art school in Philadelphia. As a gesture born of equal parts punk irreverence and brute necessity, the band incorporated toy instruments and kitchen appliances into their aggressive, angular sound. Their anthems "Cardboard Lamb" and "Flying Turns" from 1981's Signals From Pier Thirteen EP have been staples in adventurous DJ sets for over 40 years - yet some of their finest work is to be found on Near Marineland, a full-length LP recorded in 1981 but remained unreleased in it's time. Near Marineland shows the band moving into more diverse and polished territory (although it's still as abrasive as sandpaper). Tracks like "No More Hollow Doors" and "Jump Over Barrels" highlight CCIS's singular knack for embedding infectiously monotone hooks in their stiff-yet-funky grooves. Elsewhere we see CCIS going fully unhinged, like on the searing "Someone Reads" or the demented "Pompeii Spared", where a spray of honks is barely glued together by a frantic synthetic pulse. While this masterwork of malfunctioning analog electronics has surfaced on a few occasions - this first time stand alone remaster includes four never-before-released bonus tracks and includes a lyric sheet. Near Marineland is crucial listening for all devotees of synth-punk and minimal electronics.

2024 Reissue by Dark Entries Records. The vinyl comes in a clear plastic inner sleeve and a full size colour paper insert sheet containing lyrics and photographs is included.
