<br>"The Lords Of The New Church" self titled CD, which I think is out of print now. Dark and dirty New Wave Rock at it's best.

"Russian Roulette", "Open Your Eyes", "Dance With Me" and other dirges with the occasional gritty saxophone cutting through the macabre inspired mood and cobweb filled lyrics.

These guys were no Duran Duran New Wave teen idols. If you were in a room alone with them you'd be more than a little nervous. These are the guys even Alice Cooper probably thought were "weird" and scary.

You can get the CD used on Amazon so I guess it's not that rare. Still, I like my copy. Stumbled acrossed it at a used CD store and couldn't believe my luck. $5.99 and in great shape. This was before Amazon became what it is now.

I like the fact that it's used, was cast away and has battle scars on the case. This just adds to it's ugly charm as an unwanted stepchild.

Yeps, I love The Lords of The New Church, I have Killer Lords and the s/t was on my wanted list last year, when I went CD hunting on ebay, but twice I had too delete it coz the list was .... too long eheheh.
The s/t CD was reissued in 2003 but the song Dance With Me is in the Killer Lords album.
If U have the track Livin'on Livin' , it would be nice to post it here.[:)]

Here it is, finally:

I don't know, but I do have all 3 of the CDs in the below auction. The only CD that's new wave from a technical standpoint is "All Fall Down." Also, it says "Christian" but think U2 not dc Talk...

Time was on my side for so long, 'til it said "so long" to me.

re Bill Nelson - Vistamix

I have this CD also. It's one of my favorites, though I didn't realize it was rare. I found an extra copy for $8 the other day and gave it to my brother.

I also have the second Big Pig CD: You Lucky People. I haven't heard it in about 10 years, but from what I remember it was bad. So bad.

Next to these cd's I think my proudly found:
Orchestra of Skin and Bones - 1984 -1986 (with Ollie Olsen)
Saw them live at the Warehouse Club in 1984 and found their cd one time only on e-bay.

Another good search is Metabolist. I have Hansten Klork. Neanderthaler Music. Great.

(Edit: At second glance I don't consider music I bought by mailorder is actually...rare. Hmmmm, anyway. I put some efford in it, so...READ IT. [:D] )

I bought some unknown stuff from WMO (www.wiremailorder.com/thousand) a number of years ago. That's the online Wire (related/produced/befriended) products. Don't even know if these cd's are still available. It's all on the THOUSAND label:

dj faké - conspiracy theory
orbitronik - my computer my stereo
O.S.T - Death Notice
knots - barcode data on spine/ file under electronic

There I also bought a fantastic cd, from a kind of sitar-builder back in 1982. Micheal O'Shea.

hi,

if you dig goth then it's worth having. It's pretty expensive in ebay now. I bought them because they remind me of my school days, :).

<br>The most expensive CD I have purchased is "Under The White Bible Law" by The Game for $65. Apart from being a rare French-only CD, it is really excellent. I bought and sold Secession's "Dark Enchantment" on Ebay and made a few bucks. Sophie and Peter Johnston's self-titled CD (Japanese version) was another one. Now here's a new-wave tragedy: I bought Red Box "Circle and the Square" back in 1986 when it first came out and kept it for years, in pristine condition. Then eventually it found it's way into a cardboard box in the garden shed at my parent's house. Now, I can't find it and can't remember if I sold it cheap at one time (I didn't realize CD's were collectible until about 2001). Bummer!

Oh yeah, I also recommend the Rouen CD "Young for a Day" if you can find it. Does anyone have a CD copy of the Once Bitten Soundtrack? Is that rare?[/quote]is

Hey! I love the Game! Most notable tracks for me would be Under the White Bible Law, Time Is Mine and Walk Away. Great French band!

A lot of these are gone now, but here's a few that I've owned over the years:

Appolonia 6 - Appolonia 6 (Japan only WEA release)
Comsat Angels - Waiting for a Miracle (RPM reissue)
Comsat Angels - Sleep No More (RPM reissue)
Comsat Angels - Fiction (RMP reissue)
APB - Something to Believe In (Link reissue)
Duran Duran - Night Romantics/Carnival/Tiger Tiger/Strange Behavior (2CD Japan only EMI release)
Fashion - Height of Fashion (Arista UK reissue)
Modern Romance - Adventures in Clubland (Japan only WEA reissue)

Those are just a few. I dropped out of the New Wave scene for a few years between 2000-2005, so I'll have to take a look through my collection and see what I have. I probably have quite a bit of stuff that's rare and out of print at this point.
