Notes: My personal favourite and unarguably quintessential post punk band, Gang Of Four were 4 art students from Leeds who set out to change the way people saw the world and push the boundaries of music.  Mission: accomplished.  I’m not usually a fan of best-ofs, but generally people would recommend their first album “Entertainment!” but I recommend this because it includes a number of great songs from that album, as well as my 2 favourite Gang Of Four songs - “I Love A Man In A Uniform” and “To Hell With Poverty”.

For fans of:  Post Punk, The Mekons, Au Pairs, Joy Division, sharp guitars, Bloc Party, Franz Ferinand
