The New Transistor Heroes (DELUXE EDITION) [CD]

The energetic 1997 debut album, now fully expanded with b-sides and rarities of the era. An explosion of colourful influences ranging from quirky New-Wave to 80's Synth Pop and Riot Grrrl with hints of Disco and Two-Tone. The album went massive in Japan, "Starbright Boy" and "Sweet Shop Avengerz" hit the UK charts while the digital Motown of "Tell It To The Kids" introduced bis to the kids of the US. It's a bold and innocent attempt at creating the definitive bis document, and it's catchy as sin to boot.
