THE IMITATORS – Self Titled EP (1984)



Back to the US, here’s a new wave keyboard driven alternative band with Christian leanings. You won’t find too much preachiness here, rather some infectious up-tempo synth oriented new wave pop rock. Check out the trance infused “Paradoxical Faith”, which has a cool instrumental synth interlude smack in the middle…A Christian version of The Fixx…if you’re interested…

  1. Why does everyone want to steer clear of anything with Christian innuendos,but run full force towards anything openly demonic? That may be a trick question.

  4. Oh man...

    I had this LP... got it signed by the entire group at their release party after a concert at a Calvary Chapel Saturday Night Concert...

    Then lost it on a plane while travelling.

    Great sound. Kind of wish they'd recorded their song '1984'. 28 years later, it still gets stuck in my head.
