Declaration

by The Alarm

Declaration cover art

Driven by Mike Peters' passionate vocals and massed acoustic guitars played through electric amplifiers, the Welsh band's debut embodies the earnest, politically charged spirit of the 'Big Music' era. Tracks like '68 Guns' fuse the sprawling, stadium-ready ambition of U2 with the raw, confrontational energy of classic punk rock. The record was a major commercial success in the UK, establishing them as a premier live act.
