4.0 out of 5 stars Machines do rock!, 26 Feb 2008
This reissue of Tubeway Army's seminal work is welcome because it spotlights the underrated vision and talent of Gary Numan.Amongst the first of the new wavers to see the potential of the synthsiser as a valid pop instrument, Numan went about constructing a fine album of futuristic pop that was both in tune with its aggressive times,and crucially,gave pretty much the first hints at a direction pop music would take in the next decade.

Both bleak,and foreboding,Replicas was an important album in establishing a new musical order,that two years earlier would have been unthinkable.Without Numan's breakthrough album,synthesised music may never have become such a huge musical influence,and the impact of "Are Friends Electric" as a massive number one single in 1979 still resonates in popular music today.

This reissue updates the original album by adding a full disc of demos that in some way retain the spirit of Numan's vision better than the finished product["When The Machines Rock" has a vocal missing from the Replicas version, giving the song a considerably different atmosphere,and the previously non album "We Have A Technical" was good enough for the final cut,but presumably left off for timing reasons].These demo tracks suggest Numan had plenty of ideas,and their rawer edge means they form the perfect missing link between the first Tubeway Army album,and Replicas.

Gary Numan would confirm that his success was no fluke with two fine follow up albums in the next two years,but it was Replicas that opened the gates to the final acceptance of the synthesiser as a valid pop instrument.

5.0 out of 5 stars REDUX 'OH YES', 26 Feb 2008
By Mark W. Muir "caroline6505" (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Theres not much to say about this release,to celebrate 30yrs of Mr Numan except YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS, IT IS ONE OF MUSIC'S HIDDEN GEMS.I bought the album back in 1979,and it has never lost it's appeal to me,it was so different back then and even now it still feels fresh.This release has the original plus extras (Demo's/Early versions)and it's the extras that show you how raw sounding early electronic music was compared to today,but this is it's charm.Replicas should be up there with the all time great albums.

5.0 out of 5 stars very impessive, 4 Mar 2008
By Mr. Dean J. Jenkins "djj081961" (South Wales) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Replicas Redux (Audio CD)
This is one of the benchmark albums for Electronic Rock, and it is amasing just how fresh and up to date it still sounds after nearly 30 years. The second disc shows just how ome of these tracks developed, indeed a few are inspiring to listen too when considering how the final version ended up. I purchased the 3 disc version direct which has 'remixes' and let my teen son listen to it, he was shocked as its almost drum and bass!!! Id recommend this 100%
