{"product_id":"the-monochrome-set-the-independent-singles-collection","title":"The Monochrome Set- The Independent Singles Collection { VINYL LP }","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Monochrome Set's complete independent singles collection including b-sides and rare tracks. Collected from their time at Rough Trade, Dindisc and Cherry Red, a superb collection of genre defying \"new wave\" pop. Suave; debonair; sophisticated. Haughty, perhaps, for those who favour the pejorative. Aristocratic in more than one sense, classy in at least as many. The Monochrome Set were effortlessly inventive, literate, poised and immaculate of tuneage, possessed of an internal dialogue as a band that allowed them to surf their own narrative. They were just unlike anything else, in layman's terms. Their sound harked back to a golden era of British pop songwriters. But there was nothing retrogressive about their endeavours. Instead they wrote songs that recreated the drama and promise of a Pearl \u0026amp; Dean interval theme, veering from lullaby to mambo to harmonic pop, accompanied by lush melodies and irresistibly playful lyrics that embraced morbidity at one extreme, and pitch-perfect satire at another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe's Frank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Alphaville\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Eine Symphonie Des Grauens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lester Leaps in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Monochrome Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mr Bizarro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e He's Frank (Slight Return)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Silicon Carne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fallout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Mating Game\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e J.D.H.A.N.E.Y\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cast a Long Shadow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Jet Set Junta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Love Goes Down the Drain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Killing Dave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e House of God (Live)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sweet Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Forever Young\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hurting You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Little Noises\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I Love Lambeth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Kissy Kissy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e All Over\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Closing Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003eShop online 24\/7 at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Lantern","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43399787413594,"sku":"781930069489","price":10.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/6107\/2986\/files\/4116542-3211463.jpg?v=1779333729","url":"https:\/\/qbrxip-ki.myshopify.com\/products\/the-monochrome-set-the-independent-singles-collection","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
