Bernard worked really hard getting the synth parts just right.\n\n\"'Your Silent Face' soon evolved into something beautiful and majestic- we were afraid we might getting too serious, a problem easily solved by the 'why don’t you Piss Off' line. You’d never catch Kraftwerk swearing.\"\n\n\"It was the first time that Bernard wrote all the lyrics and found himself as a singer,\" says Morris. “On Movement, we’d all sweated blood and tried to write meaningful lyrics together and failed miserably. On Power, Corruption & Lies… \n\n\"Bernard had found a way of singing and a style that really suited him.

I don't know why - I don't know too much about fish behavior.\"\n\nProducer Steve Albini used some unusual recording techniques on Surfer Rosa as he was desperate to avoid \"the studio sound.\" For instance he moved all the studio equipment to its bathroom in the hope of achieving a real rather than studio echo on bassist Kim Deal's backing vocals for this and her lead vocals on Gigantic. Albini later admitted that the record could have been completed in a week were if not for the time wasted experimenting on projects like this.\n\nFrank Black acknowledges he would never have completed the song without some words of encouragement from his then-girlfriend and future wife, Jean Walsh.\n\n\"I was strumming the guitar in the bedroom, and she stuck her head out and said, 'Finish that song, that's a good one,'\" he recalled to ABC Audio. \"So I was, like, 'Oh, OK.'
