Martin Rev

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Martin Rev (full name Martin Reverby) is the instrumentalist from New York punk-era electronic band Suicide.

He has also released a number of solo albums for a handful of labels, including ROIR and Puu. His style on these recordings varies wildly from release to release, from prototypical electronic no wave (Martin Rev) to bubblegum pop (See Me Ridin, Strangeworld) to heavy synthesizer rock (To Live). In additional to this, he also contributed to The Raveonettes' 2005 album, Pretty In Black.

In early 2007, Mind Expansion plans to re-release Cheyenne on CD with previously unreleased bonus tracks.
