Highly recommended.

After collaborating with late partner Alan Vega (Suicide) for over three decades on his solo work, and starting out playing drums in punk bands, she is releasing her own music. All of the music and lyrics were written and performed by Liz Lamere. It was recorded in her lower Manhattan apartment during lockdown, engineered by her and Alan’s son Dante Vega Lamere in the same space where the Suicide singer constructed his light sculptures.

They emerged with a riveting set of songs that are charged with an irrepressible lust for life and the feel for the contagious hook.

Lamere performed on Vega’s albums Deuce Avenue, Power On To Zero Hour, New Raceion, Dujang Prang, 2007, Station, IT.

Keep It Alive has been made as an homage to a song on Vega’s New Raceion album.
