I don't have the exact year of that Soccio album in front of me, however the
name of the album is "Face to Face" and isn't too hard to find. There IS
(or was, for that matter) a 12" for "remember" that is kind of rare; it has
a remix/re-edit that is way better than the original (IMO), and was more
likely the inspiration for "Black...".
Both came out on Quality records.

It's a song called "Remember" by Gino Soccio. Great f**king track! And no,
it's
not an Industrial/Synth-Pop thing. Gino Soccio was part of what would be
considered Italo Disco. However, he actually hailed from Quebec. I think
it's
from around '81 or '82.
