Edited one month agomusically : we're talking about a masterpiece here really, perfect combination between dirt and high morale-values.
historically: this miners' strick are only a symptom and a small part of a changing world that led by the Thatrism and Reigenism (in the most part) and essentially caused a collapse of a society just like the Victorian buildings that were torn apart ..... -

A monumental lp cause of the political background. the speech before shockwork is fabulious. Does anybody know the speaker from this speech?
-
It's interesting that this is the only Test Dept. material that has never been reissued anywhere. Probably, because it was originally created to the miners and their families during the famous strike, so making money out of it with a reissue would be incoherent with the band's attitude, even after all these years. Truly irable.
