Sage, Greg

Straight Ahead

Arriving two years after the release of Wipers' seminal 'Over The Edge' LP, 'Straight Ahead' was Sage's first proper release of new material since signing to a major label (Restless Records). Sage's first solo album remains even more insulated from the outside world than the Wipers - a quality exacerbated by the stripped-down instrumentation and themes of alienation. Today, some might call it "death folk" but in 1985 there were few precedents for the spectral, echo-laden folk-punk of 'Straight Ahead'. After more than 30 years it sees the reissue on vinyl, remastered by Greg Sage himself.
