Between tracks, disembodied voices read from filmstrips and civil-defense reels, and the whole record plays like a transmission picked up by accident.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThirty years later it remains the entry point for anyone curious how a band could take the least fashionable genre in America and turn it into something genuinely alien. The vinyl edition closes with \"The Space Alphabet,\" which appears nowhere on the CD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eReissued by Touch and Go on orange vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Secretly","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl","offer_id":47635889291426,"sku":null,"price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/5024\/3490\/files\/1500x1500bb_8076c250-c19b-4695-8364-c2efcb02b2b1.jpg?v=1788899990","url":"https:\/\/staticatx.com\/es\/products\/man-or-astro-man-experiment-zero-orange","provider":"Static ATX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
