BLACK PLASTIC Releases CLUB GROTESQUE On Vinyl, Shares New Video!
1 min read
Cleopatra Records darkwave act Black Plastic releases a limited-edition purple vinyl edition of their second album, Club Grotesque, along with a new single and video for the track “Sucker.” The digital version of the album was released earlier this year and features guest vocals from Richard Butler of the Psychedelic Furs. The “Sucker” single was produced by Jason Corbett of ACTORS. “
‘Sucker’ is inspired by all of the gullible Americans who think that politicians on the far right are in any way concerned with their welfare,” explains Black Plastic’s Kevin Grady. “It also pokes at the ludicrous idea that there is anything Christlike about their policies and beliefs.”
The video was edited by Dave Cullen and juxtaposes dark, almost industrial sounds with country line dancing, bull riding and monster trucks.
“I suppose it’s kind of like my version of [David Bowie’s] ‘I’m Afraid of Americans’ in some ways,” Grady said.
The Club Grotesque album was produced by Casey Desmond, André Obin and Corbett. It’s Black Plastic’s sophomore release, following their eponymous debut album released in 2016.
