Our Take

The Problem Of Leisure by Andy Gill and The Gang of Four is like a fine aged bottle of wine - bold, complex, and a bit too much after your third glass. This box set is a deep dive into the iconic band's history, complete with a casebound book that looks like it belongs on a hipster's coffee table.

Gill's sharp wit and biting guitar riffs are on full display here, with tracks like "Damaged Goods" and "Natural's Not in It" still hitting hard decades later. The live recordings included give a raw glimpse into the band's energy on stage, while the remixes bring a fresh twist to familiar classics.

The accompanying book is a treasure trove of behind-the-scenes stories and insight, providing a fascinating look at the band's evolution and impact on the music world. But be warned - once you open this box set, you may find yourself sucked into a time warp, lost in a haze of post-punk nostalgia and existential dread.

Overall, The Problem Of Leisure is a must-have for any die-hard Gang of Four fan or music aficionado looking to expand their sonic horizons. Just make sure you have a stiff drink on hand to help you digest the sheer magnitude of this musical journey. Cheers!
