To me, Silver Apples were every bit as vital & groundbreaking as Kraftwerk and Suicide.
When you listen to them now it's like they had some kind of intense vision from the future, finding a new direction fusing 60s lyrical styles with 80s-90s synthesised beats. So far ahead of their time!!!

You think you can't, you wish you could, I know you can, I wish you would. Slip inside this house as you pass by.

I'd not listened to them before this. Makes the rest of 60s music seem like weasel piss.

Yeah good band and safe to say one of the origin stories of many of the acts in the Hauntological thread.

Absolutely ahead of their time and influential to some good folks. Can’t imagine late period Portishead (will they ever return?) and Beak sounding they way they do without Silver Apples.
