Pere Ubu-The Modern Dance (1978)

“It’s a devastating debut…this album has struck me with a vengeance”. Ian Birch, Melody Maker
There isn’t a Pere Ubu recording you can imagine living without. The Modern Dance remains the essential Ubu purchase. For sure, Mercury had no idea what they had on their hands when they released this as part of their punk rock offshoot label Blank, but it remains a classic slice of art-punk. The Modern Dance is the signature sound of the avant-garage: art rock, punk rock, and garage rock mixing together joyously and fearlessly.
