Originally released in 1976, 'Third Reich 'N' Roll' is a groundbreaking album and features only two tracks, "Swastikas On Parade " and "Hitler Was A Vegetarian", both intense, deconstructed cover versions of 1960s hits. The band found themselves isolated from mainstream bland radio-friendly rock, and soon concluded they had created an album aboutfascism and in particular, the fascism of rock 'n' roll.Since the album's concept was fascism, the original artwork and photo sessions for 'Third Reich 'N' Roll' are controversial, employing Nazi imagery and featuring THE RESIDENTS (preeyeball days) wearing huge swastika collars. MUTE's deluxe release of this classic album of cover versions will include a 32-page booklet including all the photo sessions from the time, the original sleeve art and an "historical" textexplaining the concept and its relevance to culture today.
