Love In a Guillotine - The Delmontes

During their lifetime the Delmontes only released two singles through Rational Records, but LTM's continuing work in excavating some of the more esoteric corners of post-punk resulted in this comprehensive overview of the band's work, from those two singles to some of the last demos the group worked on a couple of years later. The band's original sound veered towards combining just-trippy-enough psychedelia with a cooler, restrained approach that fit in perfectly with peers from the Teardrop Explodes (who invited them onto a summer 1981 tour) to Young Marble Giants.
