Dark Entries Re-Issue Ski Patrol
Dark Entries is probably one of the most exciting record labels around, though they deal largely in reissues. But, those releases always unearth incredible bands I’ve only heard mentioned in whispers of the past. Their latest release will be an anthology from the UK’s Ski Patrol. You’ll hear an post-punk feel that was popularized by bands like Gang of Four, but there’s also a few songs on this release that show how far the group pushed things, incorporating the Jamaican influences of Britain at the time they were working (1979-82). You can pick up Versions of a Life on April 15th, but for now listen to their hit “Agent Orange”
