One of my greatest regrets from the Great Vinyl Purge of 1996 (I was totally broke, and convinced at the time that I would never listen to punk & post-punk again) is having sold Gyrate. I figured I'd just never hear it again, and forgot about it. I used to cover "Stop" in a particularly obnoxious fashion while busking for a living in the early '90s. Which reminds me of another regret from that purge that was recently reissued: the Young Marble Giants album "Colossal Youth." If you're not familiar, do yourself a favour and check 'em out. Great minimalist British late-night stuff that hasn't dated — or which has done so with style, anyhow. Thanks for this heads-up on the reissue; that’s awesome news.

Pylon is one of the bands that strangely got missed until here recently when I was able to get Gyrate (Plus) and begin to appreciate them.
