6th album by this electronic pioneers from France, actives from the ”70: it comes out in 500 Limited edition black vinyl, gatefold and 180 gramms. In 1982 the album ”Atomic” was released – the last album recorded by the real ROCKETS (the ”Silver Men” suits and the all-original lineup); although the album still retained a ”Rockets” style, both the press and people started to ignore them and their popularity suddenly plummeted. A German pressing of the ”Future game / Atomic” maxi-single (remix), features a different picture sleeve from Italian one. The first really traumatic change (for all fans) took place in 1984, when producer Claude Lemoine, the “”6th Rocket””, and their companion since the beginning, abandoned the band, Christian Le Bartz left the stage, becoming the group”s ”road manager” instead, and Alain Groetzinger left The Rockets altogether. SAL SOLO, ex-leader of CLASSIX NOUVEAUX, joined ROCKETS (in France, Spain and Germany called ROK-ETZ for contractual reasons), and this lineup recorded the new album, ”Imperception”.
