Split Seconds

Bill Direen is a New Zealand underground legend who produced challenging poetry, novels and music. His 1984 album Split Seconds—released under the name "Bilderine"—explores post-punk and poetic art rock across 14 brilliant tracks. This remastered vinyl reissue by Grapefruit Records and Sophomore Lounge faithfully restores the original track listing for the first time since 1984, preserving Direen's uncompromising vision as a founding figure of New Zealand's underground music scene.
