How could it be anything else?

The Young Marble Giants 'Colossal Youth'

Young Marble Giants - Colossal Youth -Full Album-

As a reaction against Punk's abrasive anarchism a variety of acts began to make quiet, introspective music like The Durutti Column and Everything But The Girl. In Cardiff, the Moxham brothers and singer Alison Stratton, armed with a tinny organ, primitive beatbox and a bass guitar, came up with an album that shook the music world (Sounds and NME raved about it at the time).
Kurt Cobain called it one of the 5 most important albums he had ever heard and had planned to record a YMG track for a tribute album.

Savvy's up now :dance:
