The Hasbeens – Make The World Go Away

Re-issue of the clicky-clacky 2006 discoclash cut ‘Make The World Go Away’, a strange trio of club bits that slap as much as they emote. This one comes in the form of a new remastered version by Alden Tyrell and DJ Overdose; as difficult as it is to make out the vocals, we glean a bittersweet suicidality from the track, as an alienated robot voice sings of just that. A slapping darkwave synthesis peaks its way through on the two newer tracks; ‘Aint The Same As Before’ is chugging and clippy, while ‘Keep Fooling Yourself’ is the triumphant instrumental that rounds it all off.
