Mutator

"Easily as good as the music that he released when it was recorded, Mutator is an enticing first dive into the Vega vault that will whet fans' appetites for more".

"Vega's visions have come of age again in the post-indie deconstructions of 2021, and `Mutator' might well find favour with fans of his distant descendants like Squid, Perfume Genius, Sleaford Mods and Black Midi. A quarter of a century on, this lost rumble from post-punk vaults finds new context, as a lesson in uncompromising art from an old master".

"The purposeful fetishistic groove of Fist stands out on the record for its eerie sense of urgency, and exemplifies what makes Vega so fascinating as an artist. Is he articulating a repetitious ode to mortal combat, precarious servitude or sexual deviance? Deliberate readings of context are hijacked as the giddily unstable song is charged by a tinnitus inducing rhythm that corrupts the ear. Brash, poetic, and romantically obtuse, even from the grave Alan Vega is as challenging as he is charming".
