Young Marble Giants Socks
Description: A stark geometric tribute to the quiet side of post-punk. Three unfinished marble faces emerge from deep shadow while an almost invisible fourth figure disappears into the negative space. Built around restraint, isolation, handmade lettering and the strange beauty of minimal sound.
Description: Scritti Politti are a British band, originally formed in 1977 in Leeds, Yorkshire, England, by the Welsh singer-songwriter Green Gartside. He is the only member of the band to have remained throughout the group's history. Beginning as a punk-inspired collective of art students and squatters, Scritti Politti released several early post-punk recordings on Rough Trade Records before transitioning into a mainstream pop music project in the early to mid-1980s, enjoying significant success in the record charts in the UK and the US. The group's most successful album, 1985's Cupid & Psyche 85, spawned three UK Top 20 hits with "Wood Beez (Pray Like Aretha Franklin)", "Absolute", and "The Word Girl".
