Music for Evenings: Young Marble Giants' Colossal Youth Ushers to Ashes: Alternative 80s

Glenn and Peter talk about one of the most influential albums of the 1980s, released at the very start of its first year. The unassuming trio from Cardiff formed from the local scene and played local-sized gigs with patterns from a home-made drum machine on tape. Two songs on a neighbourhood compilation album later they were heard and signed by Geoff Travis for his eclectic hi-cred Rough Trade label. This, their only LP continues to influence bands at the indie end of town.
