Twenty seven years after its first release from the legendary "Creep Records", the Vyllies EP (mini album) was re-released from the new-born Greek indie label "Geheimnis Records" in a limited edition version of 300 copies, fully remastered and restored from the original master tapes, so that it will keep haunting the dreams of generations of dark alternative fans to come... The band was consisting of 3 Swiss girls, Manü Moan, Ursula Nun and Ilona Prism. After this first mini LP, recorded in Greece in 1984, they made 2 full albums (1985 and 1987), one 12'' and a 7'' single and then perished into eternal oblivion... Summer 1983 : They came to Greece for holidays, met the singer and front man of another legendary group (Yell-O-Yell) from Creep Records, Fill Scars (Filotas Vaskalis), then he introduced them to Babis Dalidis, owner of Creep Records and the rest was history... 5 tracks -- 5 stories -- 5 fairytales, like the ones, granny used to tell us, but in this case dark, gloomy and obscure... and with no happy end. "Purple Gorilla", Whispers In The Shadow", "Madness", of course... "Babylon" and "Rare". These tracks were - and still are - something like a baptism into the dark/goth-alternative music scene, to anyone who is not a newcomer, but, after his acquaintance with the big names of this music genre and the bizarre sounds of it, he enters in a purgatory-like state and it is necessary, in order to become a true and sophisticated member of this community, to have listened to these songs. A very hard to find record, which during the 90's (mostly) and the 00's, probably earned the attention it never had in the 80's and became one of the most expensive and sought-after records in Greece and all over the world. The prices and the myths behind them, that we've heard during all these years probably contributed even more to the legend of the band and the record itself... March 2011 : Geheimnis Records proudly announced the re-issue on vinyl of this "precious" album, trying to put an end to its unattainable status... 300 limited edition copies (now printed in England), with a record-size insert (for all of you who have lost the original small insert, the new one is made for you !!!) and rare photos of the band. Last but not least, we must not forget, the black inner sleeve, which matches perfectly both the dark atmosphere of the record and the yellowish parts of its artwork.
