WASTELAND: What Ails Our People Is Clear

The incredibly ambitious debut from the Bristol art-punk quartet operates as a wildly complex, sci-fi concept album dissecting the human condition and existential history. The record completely eschews traditional guitar structures, utilizing a bizarre, custom-built instrument known as an 'intintoner' to craft wildly jagged, terrifyingly dissonant noise rock soundscapes. It firmly established them as one of the most musically confrontational acts in the modern British post-punk wave.
