Album Notes & Community Reviews

Rebounding remarkably from a chaotic period of shifting lineups, Mark E. Smith incorporated heavy drum loops and electronic programming into his iconic post-punk sound. 'The Unutterable' pairs these driving, almost industrial dance beats with his razor-sharp, heavily sarcastic spoken-word poetry, proving the band's continued relevance.
