Cranes

Fuse

Re-reissue of Cranes über rare (cassette only) debut album 'Fuse' on Dadaphonic. The 'Fuse' album was remastered at Abbey Road in 2023 an includes an extra unheard track from the period called 'New Liberty.' Artwork is by Chris Bigg of V23. The second in a series of archive releases by Cranes, 'Fuse' was recorded in Portsmouth, their home town by siblings Alison and Jim Shaw. It originally appeared as a cassette album in 1986 on the Bite Back! label. With an initial run of only 200 copies, over the years this album, with its distinctive purple cover has been highly sought after amongst fans. 'Fuse' showcases a sparser, darker and more industrial, post punk sound. From the hypnotic allure and rhythmic intensity of the title track to the ferocious and challenging beats of 'Wrench,' the songs are just as mesmerising as Cranes' later, critically acclaimed releases.
