va - TRAX 0983 Anthems

 


Classic LP of new national anthems compiled by media artist and music critic Vittore Baroni in 1983. Features patriotic songs by bands from around the world (but mostly Italy): Naif Orchestra, Merzbow, Van Kaye & Ignit, 001... Cancer, P16.D4, No Night Sweats, Renaldo & the Loaf, DDAA, Olho Seco, Prhemm and Spirocheta Pergoli. It's a fun record in its own right, but it's also one of those perfect snapshots of the intersections between Utopian mail art, post-punk and underground noise that flourished in the early 1980's.
