Product Description

The Boutique Label is pleased to announce the first in our CD reissue program by Minimal Man, aka cult American underground artist Patrick Miller, who recorded six remarkable albums before his untimely death in December 2003. The Shroud of album was originally released by Subterranean Records in 1981, when the core band comprised Miller together with Andrew Baumer and Lliam Hart. Guest musicians include Tuxedo moon members Steven Brown and Michael Belfer. The album serves up thirteen slices of powerful rock n' roll, electronics and black humor, together with generous side orders of isolation, insecurity and terror. The CD has been digitally remastered to include five equally rare bonus tracks, taken from the singles Two Little Skeletons and He Who Falls, the latter recorded live at the legendary Deaf Club in San Francisco in September 1979. Also featured is the extended compilation-only track 'Shower Sequence'. 2004.
