Peter Jefferies, a living legend of New Zealand underground
music, from his seminal bands Nocturnal Projections and
This Kind Of Punishment, to his collaborative efforts
in bands such as Plagal Grind and Two Foot Flame, is
perhaps best known for his solo work on masterpieces such
as The Last Great Challenge In A Dull World (1990) and
Electricity (1994), as well as Elevator Madness (1996).

All
of these albums came out on vinyl but one of the best was
the singular Closed Circuit (2001) which, unfortunately,
only came out on compact disc and was somewhat lost to
time until now.
After Grapefruit released his collection of singles and
unreleased songs called Last Ticket Home in 2019, Jefferies
mentioned he’d always hoped one of his personal favorite
solo albums could someday be heard on vinyl as it was
intended. Grapefruit is proud to finally be able to highlight
Jefferies’ last album of lyric-based songs by releasing
Closed Circuit on vinyl, remastered and with new artwork
and insert. This album features all of Jefferies’ signature
tense and dark, piano-driven rock and moody balladry,
along with themes of personal isolation and domestic
ambivalence. It’s a tour-de-force that has remained in the
dark too long.
