I stumbled across Ike Yard when I noticed a compilation Acute put out when I worked at the radio station. It instantly grabbed me. Josh definitely turned me onto a million post punk bands I still listen to today, so I figured I'd post a track I enjoy from a band we'd never talked about.
(from discogs.com)
Ike Yard was founded in 1979 in New York. Members are Stuart Argabright, Kenny Compton (bass/vocals), Fred Szymanski (synthesizers/ programming) & Michael Diekmann (guitar). Together they recorded for labels like Disques du Crépuscule and Factory. Ike Yard dissolved at the beginning of 1983. Their only album, 'A Fact A Second' (on Factory in 1982) is still a classic in the minimal genre and stood the test of time very easily.
