Now we are cutting our first record. We hope you'll like it; we do. It was recorded at Insight Film Media on January 22-23, 1980. It isn't representative anymore as we are continually metamorphosing. It is an accurate record of where were were in space-time and mentality. Anyway, here it is, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do -- dance to it, eat to it, or something equally physiodelic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003elove and kisses\u003cbr\u003eThe Tix\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Nu Wave music is more than a simple reminiscence. It is a parody of high-clone dressing without the rigid and stylized mold. The Tix performed this spring (1980) at the Rock Island in Houston, they broke the mold and changed. Rock Island a sometimes club, sometimes playhouse, mostly vacant building engulfed The Tix fully in their own sound. The audience knew, The Tix knew. A burning aggression that destroyed all gramour and singled the erotic with sadism was not only felt but mastered at Rock Island. Unnoticed by most, it was a return to the 60s, the 50s and late 40s. Not a return to somple salad dressing music but a continuation of an intelligent revival. The Tix's style explores the past's unfulfilled promise.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col class=\"tracklist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"pos\"\u003eA1\u003c\/span\u003e Gucci Pucci\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"pos\"\u003eA2\u003c\/span\u003e Mannequin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"pos\"\u003eA3\u003c\/span\u003e Icarus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"pos\"\u003eB1\u003c\/span\u003e What I Want\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"pos\"\u003eB2\u003c\/span\u003e Ben Franklin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"pos\"\u003eB3\u003c\/span\u003e The World Is My Cage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Lunar Lab Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54373391958343,"sku":"DG-4240802586","price":50.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/3289\/8631\/files\/discogs-4240802586-1.jpg?v=1784380721","url":"https:\/\/wileyrecords.com\/products\/the-tix-the-tix-us-1980-4240802586","provider":"Wiley Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
