OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
In this episode of Electric Friends, I take a deep dive into 'Bleed', one of the standout tracks from Gary Numan's 1994 album Sacrifice — the record many fans, and Gary himself, regard as the album that saved his career.
We explore what 'Bleed' might really be about: anxiety, intrusive thoughts and the terror of lying awake at night with your own mind turning against you. We look at how the song fits into the dark, spiritual world of Sacrifice, the huge influence of Depeche Mode and Alan Wilder, the heavier Sulphur rework on 2003's Hybrid, the song's live and acoustic history, and why 'Bleed' marks the beginning of the modern Gary Numan sound that runs through Exile, Pure, Splinter, Savage and Intruder.
