Our Take

"Revolt Into Style 1979" is a wild, eclectic ride through the chaotic landscape of punk, new wave, and post-punk, showcasing a diverse range of styles and sounds that will leave you spinning like a vinyl record on a turntable. From the infectious energy of The Clash to the avant-garde experimentation of Siouxsie and the Banshees, this compilation album is a treasure trove of musical gems that will keep you coming back for more.

The opening track, The Clash's "London Calling," sets the tone for the album with its raw, rebellious spirit and catchy hooks that will have you singing along in no time. As you delve deeper into the album, you'll encounter the dark, brooding sounds of Joy Division, the quirky charm of The B-52's, and the shimmering melodies of Blondie, each track offering a unique glimpse into the vibrant music scene of the late 1970s.

But it's not just the big names that shine on this album – lesser-known bands like Gang of Four and The Slits make their mark with their bold, uncompromising approach to music that pushes the boundaries of the genre. And let's not forget the iconic fashion statements that defined the era – from Vivienne Westwood to Debbie Harry, this album is a true testament to the power of style as a form of rebellion.

So put on your dancing shoes, grab a can of hairspray, and immerse yourself in the glorious mishmash of sounds that is "Revolt Into Style 1979" – you won't regret it.
