Between The Graveyard and the Ballroom (1979) and To Each… (1981), the band recorded hours of instrumental jams. These were intended to be covers of imaginary film soundtracks. A 320kbps file preserves the low-end frequency response—something lost on YouTube streams.
Essential for post-punk/funk crossovers. Raw, inventive, and rhythmically obsessive. “Shack Up” alone is a cult classic. However, the 2002 Early comp has since been superseded by ACR: Box (2021) which includes more material and better remastering.
The album is highly regarded for documenting the band's unique blend of industrial post-punk, funk, and dance music, which served as a precursor to the "Madchester" sound.
