Repetition- The Still Reflex 7”
Have a few more 7” records to post over the next little while, so might as well keep them coming. This particular post features a solid 7” by Belgian post-punk band Repetition, a five piece featuring an ex-member of Spizzenergi (Pete Petrol). The two tracks hail from 1981, and sound a bit Siouxsie-ish, a rather popular sound at the time.
The band released one other 7” in 1981 before switching vocalists. Their final release featured a male singer and dropped in 1981. Sarah Osburn, vocalist for the first two releases, married the Heaven 17′s Glenn Gregory after he produced her follow-up band, Allez Allez.

As you say, the sound is Siouxsie-ish. But no lame imitators, the songs are really good if you listen more than once. Thanks for sharing and for providing that interesting background info!
