Repress. Digitally remastered edition of this album from this Electronic side project from Adrian Borland and Graham Bailey, founding members of guitar based Post-Punkers The Sound. Second Layer pioneered the use of drum machines and mixed machine-based soundscape with more human elements created a sound ahead of it's time. After releasing a couple of singles in 1979 and 1980 they released World of Rubber in 1981. a beautiful, hard and emotional record. It contained many of the same elements as the Sound, not much of a surprise considering the line-up, but the machine element gives it a very different sound.
