Timo Van LuijkのLa Scie Doreeから異色の物件がリリース!!なんとTimo Van Luijkが10代後半から愛聴盤として大切にしていたという、オランダにて1980年代初頭に発生したポストパンク・ムーブメント"Ultra"シーンとも繋がりのあるMark GlynneとBart Zwierが1980年に残した隠れ名作[Home Comfort]がリイシュー!!ポストパンク、室内楽、シュルレアリスムを取り込んだまさに特異な音楽性が今尚新鮮に響く一枚であり、あの石原洋氏(White Heaven、The Stars)も生涯のフェイバリット・アルバムにあげている模様。この辺をしっかりと復刻するLa Scie Doreeの仕事振りには脱帽。







Very pleased and grateful to announce this ‘Home Comfort’ reissue by Mark Glynne and Bart Zwier, originally self-released in 1980.
Maybe a bit of an unexpected title to appear in the LSD catalog but my love for this album goes back to my late teenage years and has had an addictive effect since, like a spleen infused magnet.
With this album Glynne and Zwier (†), based in the Netherlands and connected to the Ultra scene, drew an insular blend of intimate post-punk and chamber (bedroom) songs with surreal scenic reflections.
Probably its naked singularity defying categorization has left it so unnoticed, even 43 years after the making.
It also features a reciting Marlène Dumas still quite unknown at the time.
With biggest gratitude to Mark Glynne who instantly felt confident with my proposal to reissue this silent witness of lasting beauty.

My long-time Japanese friend You Ishihara (White Heaven, The Stars) who bought the LP when it came out in 1980 still considers it as one of his all-time favourites. This is what he writes about ‘Home Comfort’:

“Resignation and fear in a desolate mental landscape. This album, which exists like a shelter for those who have quietly escaped through the backdoor of the world, vividly reflects the inner depths of the devastated Amsterdam of the early 80's. A beautiful and sad, unmistakable masterpiece.”
