The throbbing percussion, though, would continue to be an element in everything they did, and quasi-Middle Eastern melodic motifs begin to assert themselves at times.

There ain't no group like SAVAGE REPUBLIC. And, nobody has the wonderful packaging they do from Bruce Licher's Independent Project Records label. Beautiful, complex cardboard packaging with print right on the cardboard which is often folded and/or cut very elegantly. This is their first album and, to my ears, their finest. There's a couple of great live albums and the second one ain't bad either but this album is definitely them at their musical peak in the studio. A very distinctive percussive, sorta tribal drumming sound.

Tragic Figure is an EP by the American post-punk band Savage Republic, released in 1984 by Independent Project. It was later appended to reissues of the band's debut album Tragic Figures. Adapted from the Tragic Figure liner notes. Philip Drucker (as Jackson Del Rey) – guitar (A1), percussion (B2). Mark Erskine – drums. Bruce Licher – vocals (A1), bass guitar (B2).
