Inertia - " Confection " (Inertial Records ERT4T ) 1981





The term Autistic Electronica was the term sallied forth in reference to Inertia's first two singles.
This doesn't apply to their fourth,and last, release, "Confection". Not even Asperger's electronica, for they must have received the cure.
This is excellent grown-up industrial electronic music, full of gorgeous analogue sounds ; and they even dumped the shite vocals.
Superb Hannet-esque production values abound, the music has the un-nerving coldness and space that all the best elctro-wave bands had back in the 80-85 period. If they had a frigid peroxided gothess vocalist, they might have been big in Europe.

Many Thanks to Rory of Greenfield Leisure for finding this treasure in his vast archives.

Hi Jim,ERT3 is listed on the cassette insert(see pic). it was also released on L'Invitation au Suicide label in France, under the title "Tempus Destruendi". I don't think it ever appeared on Inertial records.
have you or anybody got anything by Gus Coma?
Cheers.
