Gary Numan (Gary Anthony James Webb) - Intruder (from London, UK)

Born 8th of March 1958 in Hammersmith, London, England.

One of the founding fathers of synth pop, Gary Numan's influence extends far beyond his lone American hit, "Cars," which still stands as one of the defining new wave singles. That seminal track helped usher in the synth pop era on both sides of the Atlantic, especially his native U.K., where he was a genuine pop star and consistent hitmaker during the early '80s.

Started his musical career in 1977 as a punk rocker in the band Mean Street, before being sacked in May 1977. He responded to an advert in Melody Maker to join the band The Lasers, alongside Paul Gardiner. Both soon left to form their own punk band, Tubeway Army, with his uncle Jess Lidyard filling in on drums.

In 1978 Tubeway Army was signed to Beggars Banquet and released a couple of punk singles. By then he was using the name Numan and the band was performing live in pubs and clubs around London, supporting The Lurkers. Whilst recording demos for Beggars, Gary stumbled upon a "Minimoog," that had been left behind in the studio, still programmed to a sound that caught his attention.

Just out, if you like any of his stuff go get it. It's the best stuff I've heard from him since the 70's-80s classics.
I saw him do a show in 2013 where Cold Cave opened and was honestly not too exciting by comparison. Gary was amazing.
Here's some good reviews.

I can't wait to hear this because I've heard a lot of great things about it and how ground-breaking it is for him. He's one of the founding fathers of electro and synthpop among other genres.

I appreciate he's continued to modernise his sound without sacrificing it's "feel". Might be the only synthpop artist I like really.

I'm giving it a second listen to see if any tracks stand out the most. It's all good. There's the instantly recognizable backbone sounds he's always used, with extremely lush arrangements and production on top. It makes a clear path from the minimalist start like "skeletal kraftwerk + punk" to this.

This is from his 2017 album, seems to be a pretty big hit with clubs and streaming

Gary Numan - Down In The Park


Lyrics

Down in the park
Where the mach-men meet the machines
And play 'kill-by-numbers'
Down in the park with a friend called five
I was in a car crash
Or was it the war
But I've never been quite the same
Little white lies like I was there
Come to "Zom-Zom's", a place to eat
Like it was built in one day
You can watch the humans
Trying to run
Oh look there's a rape machine
I'd go outside if he'd look the other way
You wouldn't believe
The things they do
Down in the park
Where the chant is "death, death, death"
Until the sun cries morning
Down in the park with friends of mine
We are not lovers
We are not romantics
We are here to serve you
A different face but the words never change
