Identical Remote Controlled Reactions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Identical Remote Controlled Reactions is the first full Superheist release to feature singer Joey Biro, who proved to be something of the bands savour, but catalyst to their eventual demise. IRCR proved far stronger than previous album The Prize Recruit in song personality and overall weight in sound. Though not taken as well by critics, loyal fans lapped up IRCR, giving them reason for almost unending tours and stints on the Main Stage on Australia's Big Day Out festival tour. The album itself seemed far more adventurous with sound, with short instrumental interludes thrown into the mix and far more experimentation with keyboards and bass, but still keeping within a conservative vein that prevented them from straying into WTF territory, making an interesting and more melodic album.

IRCR was recorded at Backbeach Studios in Rye, Victoria by D.W. Norton and Adam Rhodes Not long after their last tour, Superheist disbanded, ending another decent chapter in Australian music culture.
