4.0 out of 5 stars Some of their best work, 22 Feb 2009
By Timothy Plumb "Kusee Pee" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Songs of the free marks the point where Gang of Four were able to merge their hard-edged guitar sound with a bigger production which afforded space for the bass and vocal to breathe. The music sounds much more ambitious than before - a sound which would continue on Hard. The punk elements of their previous work are shaken off here and there are clear pop-structures behind most of the songs. The guitar work is outstanding throughout - buy this album for Call Me Up alone.

2.0 out of 5 stars WHERE'D THEY GO?, 24 Dec 2008
By David P. Weber (North Fremantle) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Appearances can be deceptive-- while it seems the aggression has fallen by the wayside, there's still plenty of power in the lyrics. The band, however, seems a little uncertain. The sound is more spacious-- it seems that this style of music heavily influenced a host of Australian bands in the 1980s. At times, this album can be boring. But-- strangely-- it's not a total waste of time, because after all, it IS Gang Of Four. It's an 'interesting' album.
