Description

A seismic debut that redefined punk’s possibilities, Entertainment! is Gang of Four at their most incendiary—angular guitars, funk-infused basslines, and razor-sharp critiques of consumerism, gender roles, and media manipulation. This Rhino reissue preserves the raw urgency of the original while offering audiophile-grade fidelity for modern listeners.

Often cited as a blueprint for post-punk and alternative rock, the album’s influence stretches from Fugazi to Franz Ferdinand. Tracks like Damaged Goods, At Home He’s a Tourist, and I Found That Essence Rare remain as confrontational and danceable as ever.
