Sorcerer Records have a long-running relationship with the Milwaukee space-rock band known as F/I, having already reissued two of their old '80s albums on LP. The group itself has existed for over 40 years, sprung from that city's punk scene by a group of musicians who were equally inspired by the early industrial sounds of Throbbing Gristle, but also the earlier electronic explorations of Klaus Schulze, Cluster, Conrad Schnitzler, etc. and the fuzzed space-rock of Amon Duul II and Hawkwind. Over the years, they earned fans in Jim O'Rourke and Steve Albini and toured Europe, where they have a particularly dedicated fan base. Blanga was originally released on compact disc in 2005 on the Lexicon Devil label and went out of print over a decade ago, and it saw the core lineup of Richard Franecki, Brian Wensing, and Grant Richter reconvene to release an incredible "comeback" of sorts. Blanga is a mind-frying mix of Hawkwind-style heavy-duty space/psych-rock and raga-like electronic meditations. Featuring newly reconfigured artwork, the sleeve is printed on matte stock, the vinyl on orange/yellow/red mixed colors. 300 copies.
