Geremasterde heruitgave van het debuutalbum van Suicide, met als bonus een cd met live-opnamen uit 1977. "Proof that punk was more about attitude than a raw, guitar-driven sound, Suicide's self-titled debut set the duo apart from the rest of the style's self-proclaimed outsiders. Over the course of seven songs, Martin Rev's dense, unnerving electronics -- including a menacing synth bass, a drum machine that sounds like an idling motorcycle, and harshly hypnotic organs -- and Alan Vega's ghostly, Gene Vincent-esque vocals defined the group's sound and provided the blueprints for post-punk, synth pop, and industrial rock in the process. Though those seven songs shared the same stripped-down sonic template, they also show Suicide's surprisingly wide range." (AllMusic)
"So, for those less familiar with Suicide’s work, what does Surrender offer? Their sound is formed of motorik beats looping beneath raspy arpegiatted bass lines whilst the ratchet ghost of Gene Vincent claws wildly at his own eyes. This is not music as fun or diversion – Rev and Vega are not here to entertain you. They regularly described Suicide’s sound as shoving the street right into their audience’s face."
