Solid Gold

by Gang of Four

Solid Gold cover art

Deepening the fiercely anti-capitalist, danceable abrasion of their debut, Gang of Four’s 'Solid Gold' slows their tempos to emphasize an incredibly tight, heavy funk groove. Andy Gill’s jagged, dissonant guitar noise slices through the deeply anxious, rhythmic post-punk foundation, soundtracking Marxist critiques of urban alienation and labor exploitation.
