Political-minded dance punks don't inspire
can you really dance to politics? True agit-rock demands a certain degree of indignation: vocal, musical or both. But on Stealing of a Nation, Radio 4 show a real lack of gusto. Mostly, they stick to the Gang of Four template of guitar stabs over snare kicks; "Fra Type I and II" also has echoes of Depeche Mode's industrial grandiosity. But save for a few sublime moments in "No Reaction," when it seems like the song might unravel altogether in a sea of loose percussion, this is staid rebellion.
