WIth a sound that was truly fresh, unique and powerful in a genre crowded by many derivative Sisters Of Mercy clones and Bauhaus imitators, their songs shot sparks out of club speakers and lured shadow dancers to the floor en masse. As the buzz grew, so did their record sales. This little project became a massive force.Gathering a solid touring band behind them, the seductively twisted glitter dolls Susan & Tina set about to spread their cutting edge, industrio-classical glamour around the world. Opening for the likes of Gary Numan and Sisters Of Mercy as well as headlining many venues filled with their growing legions of supporters Switchblade was onto something new and they were exciting many darkwave fans out of their daze along the way. From gothic to industrial, from trip hop to dark pop, these witchy, fashion freaks have evolved three-fold with every release. With the band on hiatus and no new studio record in the works, this phenomenal 15 song, state of the art remix record is sure find its starving public. Once the rabid fans hear the killer cuts and adrenaline- injected versions of SS classics spinning from club systems and radiowaves, the goose-bumps will rise again...the legacy continues! --Cleopatra Records
