Originally self-released in 1985 as a single LP, "Insomnia Theatre" was Psyche's first album. Its brilliant style mixed dark electronics, new wave, industrial, and horror in ways that back then were quite shocking to its first Canadian audience, and which today are seen by synth music aficionados as a master work. With classic cuts "The Brain Collapses", "Maggots", "Eating Violins" and "Children Carry Knives", the album made its way to Europe. The Artoffact Records reissue is completely remastered and includes several bonus tracks, some have never before been released. The base of the recording is the original Canadian LP Mix, with the addition of several tracks from the New Rose 1985 edition, plus bonus tracks from the "Contorting the Image" EP (1986) and the very rare "Unleashed cassette" (1988). Singer Darrin Huss personally selected all bonus material, including the never-before-heard "Ice and Lies".
