***BACK IN STOCK!!! “I Want To Be With You…But Sometimes Life Becomes Too Real…I Want To See The Things In My Heart I Know I Feel.” The opening track is a love song written from the perspective of the camera, asking to be held up to see the world through the eyes of its user. CHROMATICS’ dense electronics are anchored by the intimacy of RUTH RADELET's vocals. Framed by negative space, this is pop music from the blurry hours. She softly sings, “I write a song in my head, pretend that I’m lying in your arms.” The music is minimal and bare, layered with sparse percussion. The Camera EP features unreleased material, including a haunting take on Dear Tommy’s title track and the midnight mood of “Flashback To Forever.” Deluxe CD version features 25 minutes of unreleased material, featuring long time David Lynch collaborator, DEAN HURLEY's reimagined “Blue Girl” fit for the Silver Screen… The synthesizer heavy club take on “Magazine” stripped of it's guitars from Fien Troch's HOME soundtrack..The midnight vamp of “The Taste Of Blood” & the nightmarish “House Of Dolls” will throttle your pulse.

***NEW TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY REMASTERED EDTITION!!! Includes the track “Tick of the Clock” from the film Drive. The ever-popular Night Drive release, now expanded to fifteen tracks. The lost side of the album is dark and abstract. Opening with the almost funerial "Shining Violence." Where detuned analog synths collide & struggle to hang onto a fading melody. Followed by the sleeper hit, "Circled Sun," and the Vangelis inspired reflection of life's duality in "The Gemini." Looking into a broken mirror, RUTH is more vulnerable than ever with the bare bones bass & vocal of "Bell." "Night Drive" closes with an arpeggiated musical refrain from the beginning of Side One. "Acelerator" reinterprates elements of "Night Drive's" chord progression while leaning heavily on the gear shift. As painted lines in the road begin to strobe, Chromatics propels full speed ahead into an uncertain future. Packaged in gatefold jackets with two lyric sheet inserts. Pressed on "white" colored vinyl. . "... the transformation of Chromatics has been so effortless that it's still easy to be wowed by the results. But listeners who are only familiar with the band's forays into shambling punk will certainly be surprised by Night Drive's assured songwriting (which would wow even if the band had been chasing this narcotic Eurodisco sound for years) and how it wrings ravishment out of electro moves that should be long-drained of their charms."—Pitchfork.

***BACK IN PRINT ON CD!!! After five years of experimenting with a string of different singers, Chromatics introduced Ruth Radelet as the lead actress to star in their films in 2005. Forever standing out from the crowd, Chromatics imagined the soft rock focus of Hall & Oates stretched over a Fleetwood Mac beat. Trading the dancefloor for gorgeous chords & melancholic strings. They lived where it was always late & neon lights glimmered across the wet streets. This record archives studio work between 2004 & 2006 leading up to the now infamous "Night Drive" album. The title track, "In The City", enjoyed a second life popularized by the American television show "Nip Tuck". Where the song's rhythmic chirp symbolized the slow drip of anesthetic as the characters went under the knife. "Dark Day" first appeared on the unexpected breakout label sampler ,"After Dark". This is the original version of "Hands In The Dark" from 2006 before they added the spiked electronic sparkle of Caribbean air. The 808 bass will pummel your speakers, and the guitars remember Martin Hannett's coloring of Joy Division. Meanwhile, synthesizers crash into the beat as Ruth hums a melody at the top of the lighthouse. Side one closes with the slo motion "I'm On Fire". A cover of the Bruce Springsteen classic originally written for "Nebraska", that later appeared on "Born In The U.S.A.". Chromatics is the blood & guts of American imagery, with a taste for European noir. Pour a little out for Danny Federici...
