Futile Combat

Released at the zenith of the British goth movement, this sophomore album delivers a highly energetic, aggressive take on dark post-punk. 'Futile Combat' is propelled by driving, chorus-drenched guitar lines, prominent tribal drumming, and Anne-Marie Hurst's incredibly powerful, soaring vocal theatrics. The record features the underground club hit 'Promised Land' and remains a fiercely beloved cult classic of the mid-80s Batcave scene.
