Level 42

There’s a few other tracks in the mix played at wrong speeds, either too fast, or too slow, it’s all about keeping the tempo.

'starchild' also gets a proper mangling in this baldelli set from 1981 except this it's sloowww as fuck:

"except this time"

something that's been annoying me since this thread got bumped is that i think there's this one doomy level 42 song that's all about nuclear annihilation or the cold war at least. kind of their answer to ub40's 'the earth dies screaming'? am i imagining this (or getting it confused with something else?) or does someone else know what i'm talking about?

it's not 'sun goes down' btw. wanna make a playlist of 80s pop songs about the apocalypse just to cheer me up

'Coup D'Etat' maybe?

hmm could be! not as doomy as i was remembering though
