Cabaret Voltaire

Cabaret Voltaire, ‘Nag Nag Nag’, 1979. A student fave and still a fierce blast of post-punk electro energy. It came from Sheffield, which also produced Heaven 17 and The Human League. Early cheap synths had hit the market and kids in the rainy North spent time in bedrooms making their own sound, creating their own world on a budget.

This isn’t electro pop. It’s a darker beast that still pummels like Led Zeppelin. Turn it up, rip off the knob!
