Music promo for Gang of Four's 'Never Pay for the Farm', from their recent album 'Content'

British rock group known for its Marxist politics and danceable fusion of rock and funk. The Gang’s debut single, “Damaged Goods” backed with “(Love Like) Anthrax” and “Armalite Rifle”, was recorded in June 1978 and released on 10 December 1978.

Gang of Four went on to influence a number of successful alternative rock acts throughout the ’80s and ’90s. R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe cites Gang of Four as one of his band’s chief influences; Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers has stated that Gang of Four were the single most important influence on his band’s early music (Andy Gill even produced the Chili Peppers debut album). Kurt Cobain stated that Nirvana started as “a Gang of Four and Scratch Acid ripoff”.
