{"product_id":"corpusse-delusions-lp","title":"Corpusse - Delusions LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Finally the second release on the Unknown Province sublabel of Feeding Tube records and it's a doozy: the self-released 1988 LP \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eDelusions\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eCorpusse\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. Well known to deep-underground scenes in Canada, few know about the Canadian 'King of Rock N Roll' elsewhere. Corpusse was still a teenager in the Park-Ex neighborhood of Montreal when \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eDelusions\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e was released. The photo on the back tells you all you need to know featuring the young man standing on the city's shittiest back-alley snowbank. Nothing has really ever come close to the sheer cathartic energy -- some might say insanity -- of Corpusse's lyrics, toeing the line between Shakespearean monologue and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eGG Allin\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e rant. Beneath him rumbles a Korg Poly-6 ('best fucking synth ever' he says) and a Welson organ. Somebody would probably call it Dungeon Synth now but this was 1988. The decrepit, burned-out city being delusionally painted by a bald and bearded artist on the cover is certainly the location in which Corpusse's gothic dramas are set. Most surely a metaphor for Montreal in 1988 -- a veritable Gotham by all accounts. Includes liner notes by Corpusse himself, describing the scene vividly. I've always felt \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eDelusions\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e formed a holy-trinity of self-released Montreal LPs of the 1980s alongside \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarlyle Williams\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eGotta Go For It\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eAmerican Devices\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eDecensortized\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e LPs.
