Album of the Day: The Slits - Cut

You can’t underestimate how radical Cut is: an all female punk band back in 1979, singing radical lyrics behind Dennis Bovell’s bass heavy production. It still sounds fantastic, almost half a Century later.

It’s rare to hear an album these days where the music is made purely for the artists, and not the audience. This isn’t a criticism; it only adds to the drama and intense atmosphere throughout Cut.

OUTRAGEOUS comment: The cover of Grapevine is even better than Marv’s original.

I think the album cover is ironic? If irony was such as thing in 1979.
