Album Notes & Community Reviews
Formed by ex-members of XTC and Gang of Four, the group blends dense, mechanical funk with cerebral post-punk tension. 'Jam Science' relies heavily on synthesizer programming, slap-bass grooves, and rigid rhythmic sequencing[cite: 1]. Although a dispute with their label resulted in the album being released without the band's final approval, it remains a potent example of mid-eighties alternative dance music.
