Gang of Four: free music for everyone
- Artists:
- Gang Of Four »
Gang of Four bassist Dave Allen has lodged a couple of the seminal act’s new demos online as he plans for a musical future without the album.
According to recent posts on Allen’s ‘pampelmoose’ ‘blog [sic], the album as a concept “is over”; Allen going so far as to draw up an action plan for the methods of release for new material in the post-album age.
Read those ruminations here; get new songs - ‘Second Life’ and ‘Password’ - there and there.
New tracks ‘Faking It’ and ‘American Man’ will be posted, Allen says, next week.

Share on Facebookoooohhh,
how daringly avant-garde. I think he's entirely wrong, though.
My arse.
What a horribly pessimistic and exaggerated outlook.
Ooooh,
'the album as a concept is over.'
Better stop buying them then.
And their new stuff'll be shit. Hence why they don't wish to make an album full of it.
