Buzzcocks 'Another Music In A Different Kitchen' (1978)
The Buzzcocks' first album, released in 1978 and including the hit single "I Don't Mind", which reached #55 in the UK chart in May 1978. This was the second line-up of the Buzzcocks, with Pete Shelley singing, following the departure of original leader Howard Devoto. The third track, "You Tear Me Up", is one of the earliest examples of the D-beat punk subgenre.
"It's all very surreal and Dada," says Pete Shelley, "All those elements that we were exploring back then. The first Buzzcocks album title was a kind of cut-up of the title of one of Linder [Sterling]'s other pieces of art. We called it 'Another Music In A Different Kitchen' which partially came from a Linder piece called Housewives Choosing Their Own Juices In A Different Kitchen.
