Historical Archive
I, Assassin is the fourth studio album by English musician Gary Numan, released in 1982. The album marks a significant evolution in Numan's sound, incorporating a more rock-oriented style compared to his earlier electronic works. It features a blend of synthesizers and live instrumentation, creating a dynamic listening experience. Thematically, the album explores concepts of alienation and dystopia, common in Numan's work, but with a more personal touch. The singles from the album, particularly 'White Boys and Heroes,' received notable airplay and contributed to Numan's legacy as a pioneer of synth-pop and new wave music.
