2009 collection from the Belgian Cold Wave band featuring all tracks from their singles as well as the cassette album Point De D‚part. The booklet features archive images and detailed sleevenotes. Formed in Brussels in 1979, Isolation Ward centered around musicians St‚phane Willocq and Jean-Pierre Everaerts. Following gigs at venues such as Plan K, the sextet recorded haunting classic 'Lamina Christus' as their first single, produced by Peter Principle of Tuxedomoon, and released in April 1982. Following live dates with diverse artists including The Birthday Party, Antena, 23 Skidoo and Siouxsie & The Banshees, the band released their second single 'Absent Heart' a year later. However, line-up changes always troubled the band, and Isolation Ward played their final gig in May 1983. 17 tracks.
