Disco Inferno: An oral history of the British experimental rock act's remarkable Five EPs 

The most underrated band of an entire generation get a five-page article in Pitchfork - that must be almost unheard of, surely? - written by Ned Raggett, who has championed Disco Inferno for as long as I can remember (and selflessly distributed the CD-Rs of the long-deleted five EPS he writes about here, for a decade or so, before they finally received an official re-release). More than just about how they recorded their beautiful and still so revolutionary sample-based music, the thoughts of the three members - especially singer and lyricist Ian Crause - reveal just how political the band were, too. Utterly essential.
