Category: 12 Inch Vinyl Record

Gang of Four was formed in Leeds in 1976 and pioneered a style of music that inverted punk’s blunt and explosive energies — favoring tense rhythms, percussive guitars, and lyrics that traded in Marxist theory and situationism. Matador Records will reissue Gang Of Four’s third album ‘Songs of the Free’ on October 25th. The album is pressed on standard black vinyl and has been remastered from the original tapes by Frank Arkwright at Abbey Road, with supervision by Jon King. The album includes “Call Me Up”, which is a live favorite, and their biggest “hit” – “I Love A Man In Uniform”.

Lily G. ★★★★★ Oct 19, 2026

This pressing captures the tense, percussive rhythm guitar perfectly—it's like hearing the band live in my living room. The vinyl arrived flat and quiet, no pops or hisses during the quieter Marxist lyrical passages. Exactly the raw, angular energy I was hoping for.

Avery ★★★★★ Oct 18, 2026

The percussive guitar work on this pressing cuts through with incredible clarity, making the Marxist lyrics hit even harder than they did on my old CD. Arrived well-packaged and flat, which is always a relief for a 12-inch record.

Ava N. ★★★★★ Oct 18, 2026

I’ve been spinning this Gang of Four LP nonstop since it arrived—the percussive guitar work and tense rhythms hit harder than I expected from a 40-year-old pressing. Side two’s Marxis-inspired lyrics still feel urgent today.
