The Wake: Here Comes Everybody (180g) Vinyl LP+7"｜ Other Products

Lab favorite Factory deep cut properly reissued! Scotland's The Wake were signed to Factory Records in 1982 and subsequently given a spot opening up for New Order on tour. While the comparisons are quite obvious and these eventually led to the band disenfranchised, the material they did manage to release was pure class. Looking back at the catalog, Factory had a long run of bands taking from each other and obviously some did much better than others, there are these moments that makes us wonder why did these guys not get the proper attention?  Here Comes Everybody was their second and final full-length release on the label, and the dreamy blissful pop of tracks like "O Pamela," "Melancholy Man" and "Torn Calendar" will surely give New Order fans a break from Power, Corruption, and Lies. This reissue of the original Factory LP album comes with a bonus 7-inch containing two A-side singles that were released leading up to the LP ('Talk About The Past' and 'Of The Matter') and comes courtesy of Factory Benelux, the Belgian offshoot of Factory which is still active today. Recommended!
