Colossal Youth

2007 digitally re-mastered and expanded two CD edition. In their short lifetime, the seminal Young Marble Giants (Alison Statton and brothers Stuart and Phil Moxham) released a handful of singles and just one album. That album, 1980's acclaimed Colossal Youth, is one of the most definitive records of the Post-Punk era; becalmed, resigned and a little tense, it created a new vocabulary for song. Colossal Youth quickly became the independent scene equivalent of a blockbuster smash and one of Rough Trade Records' best-sellers. Since then, their influence filters through every generation from Nirvana to Belle & Sebastian. This incredible reissue of the album and the collected works of YMB draws together the band's album and singles for the first time ever, re-mastered on double CD. Domino.
