This month sees the release of the first album from techno act Lords of Acid in 12 years. And now there’s an app for that too, on iPhone. Costing £1.99, it’s described as “part game, part interactive comic book, part concept album”. Based on the album’s cover art, the app includes ten mini-games – one per song. “Tap that booty in ‘Pop That Tooshie’. Open your third-eye with ‘Children of Acid’ and uncover Daddy’s little secret in ‘Long John’s’,” explains the App Store listing. “This unusual experiment in musical gaming return us to the days where the listener would stare at the magic of a vinyl album cover art, playing the songs and reading through liner notes over and over.” The app costs £1.99, and has been developed by a company called iKandy.
