The Correct Use of Soap

by Magazine

The Correct Use of Soap cover art

Produced by Martin Hannett, Magazine's third album is a brilliant, highly polished refinement of their jittery, keyboard-driven post-punk sound. Howard Devoto’s intensely sardonic, deeply literate lyricism slices through John McGeoch's inventive guitar textures, making 'The Correct Use of Soap' an incredibly energetic, wonderfully quirky exploration of urban paranoia and romantic alienation.
