Description
Declared the godfather of electronic and industrial music in Canada by his peers, Nash pushed the envelope of his art by using technology in his recordings and live performances in groundbreaking ways.
 Nash's profile was raised on the international stage when he toured the world with the likes of Gary Numan and Iggy Pop. Other high-profile shows include opening for The Who at C.N.E. Stadium in Toronto to a crowd of 70,000 people, and opening for The Tubes at a sold-out Maple Leaf Gardens. 
"Decomposing is one of the treasures in the Nash the Slash discography. It includes perhaps his most loved song, ‘Womble,' the iconic status of which was confirmed when Trevor Jackson included it on his Metal Dance release for Strut Records. Three other (de)compositions round out the release, each as excellent as ‘Womble,' and each with a personality of its own. The original 12″ was released in 1981, when Nash claimed that it was the first record ever playable at three speeds: 33, 45, and 78 RPM. The original release is extremely rare, having been issued only by Nash’s own independent label Cut-Throat, and, unlike other early Nash releases, never licensed to Europe. This 2017 edition includes all the original tracks at all three possible speeds, tripling the amount of music being made available on this reissue.
