Trash Theory just put out a new video essay on Peter Gabriel who’s plenty post punk adjacent. If you haven’t seen their videos before. They’re absolutely worth a look. Covering a lot of post punk related artists and much more.

    Yeah the essay absolutely sticks to the 70’s/80’s experimental period. These days he’s much more adult contemporary or maybe world music it seems. Which is fair enough. But yeah the 70’s and especially 80’s stuff will always have a special place for me for sure.

        Not that I remember. His videos tend to be rather narrative heavy. Pulling in a lot of footage for silent background B roll is the style he tends to go with. Sometimes throwing in short clips with the artist talking etc. But yeah That early synth stuff is always interesting. Watching some of the interviews Numan has done talking about how they changed his trajectory can’t help but pique your interests. Speaking of. Have you seen the documentary “I Dream of Wires”?
