Si vous aimez les riffs de guitare de la fin des années 70 et du début des années 80, ce coffret de 4 CD explorant le punk et le post-punk entre 1977 et 1981 est pour vous!
Son nom: Optimism / Reject!
À la suite du punk, des musiciens britanniques se sont retrouvés soudainement libérés sur le plan artistique. Le résultat a été le boom des labels indépendants et, au-delà, une certaine esthétique du « Do It Yourself ».
• Optimism / Reject regroupe des classiques, des raretés, une centaine de groupes: de THE FALL, SUBWAY SECT, SISTERS OF MERCY, THOMPSON TWINS, BLANCMANGE, YOUNG MARBLE GIANTS, MARINE GIRLS, JOHN COOPER CLARKE, ALTERNATIVE TV, SCRITTI POLITTI, 23 SKIDOO, THE RAINCOATS à THOMAS LEER et bien d’autres.
«Optimism/ Reject» est sorti le 26 juillet. Plus d’informations ici
