PERSIAN RUGS – Drowning Pool EP (198?)



Here’s a top drawer synth wave extended player from a threesome out of the United Kingdom. This EP presumably was issued in the mid 80’s after their two earlier singles were released. Persian Rug’s discography looks to be short with only this EP and two singles to their name. The head lining single on this platter is Side 1’s Drowning Pool - a strong paced post punk wave track with angular guitar sounds. Side 2 plays host to five superb songs with a strong overall vocal treatment. Out of print private pressing via the short lived UK based Phoenix Record & Filmworks. Please note that spacing between songs was exceedingly small or nonexistent. This vinyl obscurity should be accessible for good prices…

  1. Looking at this

    http://www.discogs.com/label/Phoenix+Record+And+Filmworks

    An educated guess would be 1983 (released between their 2 45's - on the same label as the 1st release)
