Sons and Fascination

by Simple Minds

Sons and Fascination cover art

Produced by Steve Hillage of Gong, Simple Minds crafted a sprawling, deeply atmospheric double album that perfectly bridges the gap between cold post-punk and sweeping synth-pop. 'Sons and Fascination' pairs incredibly rhythmic, motorik basslines with dense, highly mysterious electronic layers, resulting in a profoundly nocturnal, intellectually ambitious new wave landmark.
