Soul Possession (LP)

Gibby Miller's Dais Records reissue Annie Anxiety's Soul Possession on vinyl for the first time in over 30 years.

Many influential characters graced the stage of Max's Kansas City within the creative zeitgeist of New York City during the late 1970's, but one local native named Annie Bandez thrust herself into the downtown scene with her punk ensemble Annie and the Asexuals, establishing her nom de plume Annie Anxiety (later known as "Little Annie") and colliding head-on with the social norms of contemporary punk culture entangling the city at that time.

In the summer of 1983, Annie began work at Southern Studios on what would be her first full length endeavour which encompassed all of her creative assets at that time. Employing the expertise of legendary dub producer Adrian Sherwood to realize this vision, Annie pulled together members of Crass, Flux of Pink Indians, Family Fodder, African Head Charge, London Underground and Art Interface to record her groundbreaking dub industrial masterpiece. Upon its initial release by the unofficial Crass off-shoot label Corpus Christi in 1984, Soul Possession started the avalanche of activity that would include dozens of releases and collaborations with Nurse With Wound, Coil, Current 93, Swans and Marc Almond.
