about

⚠️ DIGITAL ALBUM CONTAINS ONLY TRACKS PREVIEWS ⚠️

Iron Curtain – Desertion 1982-1988 is getting a deluxe double vinyl treatment in a special coated texture paper sleeve with incredible artwork with a new re-master of the classic tracks from original analog tapes, this is a must have purchase for fans of the minimal wave & retro 80's includes among others The Singles "Terror Story / Anorexia" (7", 1983), "Like A Family / Telephone" (7", 1985), "Shadow / The Burning" (12", 1987), the excellent "Tarantula Scream E.P." (12", 1984). and brand remixes from INHALT and Black Light Odyssey in a nice gatefold jacket.

In the course of the past 12 years, Steve Fields has gone through a tedious process of hunting down the analog masters of his original material, multi tracks, reel to reel, and cassettes etc. We have accumulated incredible amount of tracks, that includes pre and post Iron Curtain. All these items are limited and highly collectible, we appreciate the support of so many fans who have continuously emailed us about Steve’s work over the years and finally now we get to release them all.

Iron Curtain was a minimal wave band from Santa Barbara, CA, who played regularly in the Los Angeles underground music scene. They were heavily influenced by The Cure, OMD, Joy Division, and Kraftwerk. The band released several records in small quantities even though they had a great fan base, and hence over the years these releases have gained mass cult appeal which has driven the prices of used copies up into the thousands. After several years of searching for Steve Fields (front man for the group) featured the cult classic "The Condos" and the goth-club-friendly track much-sought-after "Tarantula Scream".
