Another album listening party this week! Carrying on from last week's theme of pub rock, we turned to the post punk it helped spawn in the 1980s with one of the great English post punk bands, Gang of Four. Blending academic theory, liberal thought and philosophy, musical techniques borrowed from film, advertisement, slogans, and an undeniably catchy brand of dance punk, we listen to the forward-thinking Leeds four piece's second album, 1981's Solid Gold.
