Though he has now sadly departed, Alan Vega lives on in the music he left behind — as well as the archives of unheard material he hid from view. Of his trove of unreleased full-length works, "After Dark" is surely his most rocking and rolling. But don’t expect Chuck Berry here; Vega storms through some heavy Stooges-style chuggers with all the fury and wit of a master jazz improviser — ideal for a night-time drive through the city limits.
In April, Sacred Bones released Mutator, an archival release from the Vega Vault recorded in New York between 1996 and 1998 with the late singer’s wife and frequent collaborator Liz Lamere. Vega died in 2016 at 78 years old.
Today's tune "Nothing Left", taken from the album "After Dark", enjoy!
