Socialism, Sexism & Sexuality

White Town

A sprawling 20-track manifesto of bedroom synth-pop. Dusty samples and deadpan vocals navigate the intersection of personal heartbreak and political disillusionment.

1994 · Parasol Records

Find on Amazon

A sharp, intellectualized melancholy that finds beauty in the friction between political ideals and romantic reality.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring juxtaposition of the upbeat synth line against the nihilistic lyrics of track 18
The way the 1930s horn sample crackles through the digital beat on track 10
The sudden, raw shift into distorted guitar textures on track 17
