Pop music has never sounded stranger than on
Der Plan's debut full-length,
Geri Reig, a unique blend of Residents-inspired experimental pop and innovative electronics. A cohesive and endlessly listenable record, it creates a sense of detachment and mystery found in all the best records of the new wave era. Startlingly unique,
Geri Reig helped define the sound that
Der Plan and their record label, Ata Tak, would fully develop throughout the 1980s and 1990s. It was released as a CD with
Normalette Surprise in 1996.
